FAQ

CU1 Card Keeper works with the most recent mobile operating software as well as two past generations of Android™ and iPhone^® devices. 

back to top

No. CU1 Card Keeper is included with your checking and credit card accounts. 

back to top

Yes, you can unsubscribe through the CU1 Card Keeper App via Manage Portfolio. To unsubscribe, uncheck all cards and accounts and tap OK. Or call Credit Union 1 at 800.252.6950. Please note, when unsubscribing from CU1 Card Keeper, all previously set alerts and controls are no longer in effect.

back to top

Yes. To activate an unsubscribed user, you will register as a new user. You are required to select a new username; if you enter your previous username an error displays. Upon successful registration, you may once again use CU1 Card Keeper. 

back to top

The app automatically logs the user off after 10 minutes of inactivity.

back to top

Yes. Cardholders can register multiple Credit Union 1 cards within a single CU1 Card Keeper app. 

back to top

There is no limit. 

back to top

If the card number is new, then yes, you must add the new card number to your profile. You may also unmanage the old card by accessing Manage Portfolio. 

back to top

The My Location controls and alerts will check to ensure the merchant location is within a 5-mile radius of the device set as primary within CU1 Card Keeper. These controls impact card present transactions only, therefore internet transactions are not impacted. 

back to top

CU1 Card Keeper ignores location information that is more than 8 hours old. So, if the phone is off for more than 8 hours, My Location controls will not take effect, and the transaction will not be denied on the basis of the old location information. 

back to top

CU1 Card Keeper performs a proximity check at the granularity of Zip code or city, so if the merchant is close to home then the transactions will still go through. 

back to top

The region shows the approximate area where the card can be used; the area must be greater than 5 square miles. CU1 Card Keeper can typically map the transaction down to a ZIP code or city. If the city or ZIP code of the merchant overlaps with the selected region in the map, then the transaction can still go through. There are instances where a merchant location cannot be mapped down to a ZIP code or city, in which case CU1 Card Keeper will default to a state-level match. 

back to top

Yes. International transactions can be blocked using the Block International location control. Transactions will be limited to the United States. 

back to top

No. The location controls are applicable to in-store transactions only. 

back to top

Previously authorized recurrent payments will continue to process and will bypass the CU1 Card Keeper edit checks.

back to top

CU1 Card Keeper alerts are sent as push notifications to the phone. The alerts also display under Messages in the CU1 Card Keeper app.

Message and data rates may apply. Check with your mobile carrier for details. The iPhone and App Store are trademarks of Apple Inc., registered in the U.S. and other countries. Android and the Google Play logo are trademarks of Google LLC.

• iPad Air® 2 or iPad mini® 3 (Apple Pay within apps)

• Touch ID® or passcode on your iOS device
• A passcode on your Apple Watch and Wrist Detection turned on
• An Apple® ID signed in to iCloud®
• Touch ID or passcode on your iOS device

back to top

You can start using Apple Pay as soon as you add your first credit or debit card to Passbook®. 

To add a credit or debit card on iPhone 6 or iPhone 6 Plus, open Passbook and tap Plus icon in the upper-right corner. 

If you have a credit or debit card from a participating bank on file with iTunes®, you'll be asked to add it. You can also choose to add a different card using the iSight® camera or by entering your card information manually. Then your bank will decide whether to approve adding your card to Apple Pay. They might ask you to provide more information to complete the verification process. 

To add a credit or debit card on iPad Air 2 or iPad mini 3, go to Settings > Passbook & Apple Pay, tap Add Credit or Debit Card, and then follow the same steps for iPhone above. 

back to top

Your bank and AppleCare® are ready to help you with issues when adding credit or debit cards to your iPhone 6, iPhone 6 Plus, iPad Air 2, iPad mini 3, or Apple Watch. You can contact your bank or AppleCare, who will help you resolve your issue.

back to top

You can use Apple Pay with your iPhone 6, iPhone 6 Plus, and Apple Watch to pay in stores that accept contactless payments. 

Some stores might have this symbol on their card readers and point of sale terminals, but they might not be currently set up to accept contactless payments, including Apple Pay. At the current time, this includes 7-Eleven®, Home Depot®, Jack in the Box®, Rite Aid®, and CVS® but the list grows every day. Apple updates the list of merchants frequently so check their Where to Use Apple Pay site to see if your favorite merchant is Apple Pay ready. 

On iPhone 6, iPhone 6 Plus, iPad Air 2, and iPad mini 3, you can use Apple Pay to pay within apps when you see the Buy with Apple Pay or Apple Pay button as a payment method. 

back to top

No. Apple Pay is a benefit of Credit Union 1 membership and is a complimentary service. Message and data rates charged by your carrier may apply.

back to top

As you do today with a plastic credit or debit card, you might need to sign a receipt, depending on the store and the transaction amount.

back to top

Apple Pay is more secure than using a traditional credit or debit card. Every transaction on your iPhone or iPad requires you to authenticate with Touch ID or your passcode. Your Apple Watch is protected by the passcode that only you know, and your passcode is required every time you put on your Apple Watch. Your card number and identity aren't shared with the merchant, and your actual card numbers aren't stored on your device or on Apple servers.

back to top

When you pay in stores, neither Apple nor your device sends your actual credit or debit card numbers to merchants. When you pay in apps, the merchant will only receive information like name, email address, billing and shipping addresses you authorize to share to fulfill your order. Apple Pay retains anonymous transaction information such as approximate purchase amount. This information can't be tied back to you and never includes what you're buying. Apps that use Apple Pay must have a privacy policy that you can view which governs the use of your data.

back to top

With Apple Pay, you authorize each purchase with Touch ID or your passcode. And every time you put on your Apple Watch, you need to enter your passcode to access it. These features help prevent other people from using Apple Pay on your iPhone, iPad, or Apple Watch.

Online Bill Pay makes paying your bills more convenient. All of your billers are kept in one place, no need to log on to multiple biller sites and services. Bills can even be delivered directly to your Online Bill Pay account electronically. Paying your bills is also more convenient with options to schedule payments, to pay bills when they arrive or to hand pay bills on your schedule.

back to top

Nothing. That's right it's free. All you need is a Credit Union 1 Checking Account and access to Online Banking and you can begin paying your bills for free today.

back to top

The Online Bill Pay application can be accessed in Online Banking on the Account Summary screen under Bill Payment. Select Enrollment Options and follow the prompts to sign up.

back to top

You will need a Credit Union 1 checking account and access to Online Banking. To get started gather any copies of bills you wish to pay online. You will need the biller's name, address and your account number with the biller. Many of the companies you pay are already in Online Bill Pay so you will only need to select them from the list and put in your account specific company information. Many billers can also send e-bills directly to your Online Bill Pay account where they can be paid automatically or on demand depending on your preference.

back to top

The answer is some of both. Most payments will be electronic but some billers are still unable to accept electronic payments. In those cases a paper check will be sent. Online Bill Pay can pay bills in three ways:

1. Via electronic transmission from Online Bill Pay to the Biller.
2. Via check drawn on your personal checking account.
3. Via a check drawn off of an account from Online Bill Pay.

back to top

An e-bill is a copy of your bill and the information in it that is sent to your Online Bill Pay account rather than to you in the mail. These bills are kept safely on Online Banking and can be paid automatically or on demand depending on your preference.

back to top

Yes, you can download bill payment history as a .csv (comma separated) file for use in programs like Microsoft Excel. Direct download to Quicken or other personal finance software is not available.

back to top

Yes, we use industry standard encryption and security measures during the logon and authentication process and during your bill pay session.

back to top

First, don't worry we all make mistakes. Online Bill Pay is flexible and understands these situations. You may cancel your payment at any time via bill pay before the payment is in process. After it is in process you will need to call the bill pay service at 855.837.3991, or contact the Member Solutions Department at 800.252.6950 and we will attempt to cancel the payment or place a stop pay on the check (if applicable).

back to top

You can log in to Online Bill Pay and check the status of payments at any time. If a scheduled payment did not arrive at a biller, you can open a case online to have your payment researched. You can do this by clicking on Bill history, then 'view details' and then 'payment inquiry' inside of Online Bill Pay. You can also call the call center at 855.837.3991 to open a case.

Millions of consumers rely on CARFAX Reports every day to help them decide whether or not to buy a used car. Each report contains information about whether the car in question has been in an accident, has any open recalls, previous owners, service history and much, much more.

back to top

CARFAX Reports are available for vehicles manufactured since 1981, when the 17-character VIN was standardized. CARFAX has information about cars and light trucks, though some information for other vehicle types may be reported to CARFAX as well. CARFAX Reports are powered by the CARFAX database – believed to be the world’s largest vehicle history database – containing billions of records from more than 112,000 domestic and international sources.

back to top

VIN stands for a car’s Vehicle Identification Number. A VIN consists of 17 characters and serves as a unique identifier for a specific vehicle. At CARFAX, you can use either a VIN or a license plate and state to get a CARFAX Report.

back to top

A VIN can often be found on the driver-side door, near where the door latches as well as on the lower-left hand corner of the dashboard, in front of the steering wheel. If you own the car, you can find it on the title, registration card or insurance documents.
