Debit Card

Enjoy the convenience of cash and checks now available in one card! With your MasterCard Debit Card, you now have the option to choose either “Debit” or “Credit.” Both options can be used at the checkout counter, used to make purchases on the internet, or to pay for a fill-up at the gas pump.
When you use your check card as a “Debit” to make a purchase, you may have the option to receive cash back. When selecting “Debit,” you must use your PIN when you make purchases and when you receive cash back.
When you choose “Credit” all you have to do is swipe, sign and go. When you choose “Credit,” the funds are withdrawn directly from your checking account.
First Watch Credit Union MasterCard Debit Card Advantages
  • The First Watch Credit Union MasterCard Debit Card may look like a credit card but acts like a check because the purchase amount is deducted from the cardholder’s checking account.
  • Cardholders can make purchases at millions of MasterCard debit locations worldwide. No need to use your PIN — just sign as you would for any MasterCard card.
  • The MasterCard Debit Card allows you to conveniently get cash back with no extra charge at participating merchants. Because MasterCard Debit Card purchases are automatically deducted from your checking account, there is no interest to pay.
  • The MasterCard Debit Card can be used at locations such as supermarkets, retail stores, restaurants, gas stations and internet sites.
  • The MasterCard Debit Card is quicker than going to the ATM, more convenient than writing checks and safer than carrying cash.
  • Cardholders don’t need to get check copies. Your monthly First Watch Credit Union statement provides you with a detailed record of all your transactions.

To help members fully understand switching to e-statements, we have compiled the below list of FAQs.
E-Statements are exactly the same as paper statements just delivered to you via digital banking.
One of the benefits of Digital Banking is that we can communicate securely with our members and this includes delivery of your statement. An e-statement is delivered 2-3 days faster than a paper-based statement and it reduces the risk of your confidential information being exposed via mail tampering.
