Mountain America Credit Union Card Manager Feature Puts Cardholders in Control

WEST JORDAN, UT--(Marketwired - Jun 10, 2015) - Mountain America Credit Union continues to advance the mobile banking experience with the launch of a new Card Manager feature. Card Manager puts the power of multiple functions in the palm of the accountholder's hands, including new card activation and PIN setting, lost/stolen card cancellations, card replacement orders, travel notifications, freeze/unfreeze cards and more.

"Providing the best possible member experience is key at Mountain America," says Rob Cummings, SVP Online and Mobile Banking for Mountain America. "In a fast-paced world where card fraud can wreak havoc in minutes, tools like Card Manager make it faster and easier to stop card fraud in its tracks. It's as simple as logging into your online or mobile account. But it doesn't stop there -- this feature lets the member do so much more than close or freeze a potentially lost card. It puts groundbreaking 24/7 control in our member's hands."

The Card Manager offers many convenient features. It is the quickest method for canceling a lost or stolen card. If a card is misplaced, a member can freeze the card without having to cancel it, preventing any potential fraudulent charges should it get into the wrong hands. A forgotten PIN can easily be reset. Traveling members can notify Mountain America they are abroad in seconds, preventing a block on card transactions. The Mobile banking app can be downloaded from iTunes, Google Play or the Amazon Appstore.
