Best Practices for Card Security
Always Keep Your Card in a Safe Place
Card is a key to your finances. Keeping it secure ensures that only you have access to it. Store your card in a place where it can’t be easily lost or stolen, and never share it with others.
Regularly Check Your Account for Suspicious Transactions
Monitoring your account helps you quickly identify unauthorized transactions. The sooner you catch these, the faster we can act to protect your funds. Set up transaction alerts on the Wing Bank app for real-time updates.
Change Your PIN Frequently
Changing your PIN regularly reduces the risk of someone gaining unauthorized access to your account. Make sure to choose a PIN that is hard to guess and avoid using easily accessible information like your birthdate.
