VISA® Check Card
Our VISA® Check Card is the ultimate access card!
AllSouth members who open a checking account can also apply for a Credit Union VISA® Check Card. This card can be used for cash access at ATM machines (just like an ATM card) and it is also a convenient alternative to using a checkbook.
Rather than writing checks to pay for purchases, use your Check Card. The purchase amount is automatically withdrawn from your checking account. Your Visa Check Card can be used anywhere Visa Check Cards are accepted.
- No monthly maintenance fee.
- No finance charges.
- No transaction fee for purchases.
- All purchases are itemized on your statement.
- It's safer than carrying cash and more streamlined than a checkbook.
- Your AllSouth Visa Check Card also functions as your ATM card.
- FREE access at AllSouth ATMs.
- Accepted at merchants worldwide.
