Your Desert Financial debit card has built-in security features to help protect you against fraudulent activity, giving you peace of mind when using your debit card. These features include:
As a member of Desert Financial, you will not be responsible for fraudulent charges made with your debit card.1
When we spot suspicious debit card activity, we may contact you via text message asking you to reply with YES or NO as a one-time response:
YES – You agree with the transaction in question.
NO – You do not agree and have encountered fraudulent activity. We will take action.
To opt out, reply with STOP.
IMPORTANT: Desert Financial will never ask you for your personal or account information. Notifying you of possible fraudulent activity is just another way that Desert Financial works to help protect you.
