Customize alerts to fit your needs:
  • How you receive alerts: Through email, text or push notification (alerts that show up on your home screen)
  • What type of alerts you receive: This includes balance updates, payment reminders and more (keep reading for more info)
  • When you receive them: Such as how often and what day you receive balance updates, the amount needed to trigger balance alerts and more
