How does the Take Charge Secured Mastercard® work?

A secured card works just like a traditional credit card. The difference is that it requires a cash deposit, which determines the credit limit and acts as collateral for the card. 

For example, if you have $500 in your Savings Account, you can apply for a secured credit card with a $500 limit. We’ll place a “hold” on these funds for as long as the secured card is open. You won’t be able to access or spend the $500, but the money in your account will continue to earn dividends. Every month, your information will be reported to the credit bureaus. The better you manage your credit card spending and payments, the more your credit improves!

With time, as you show responsible credit card use, you will be eligible to apply for a traditional unsecured credit card, which does not require a security deposit.

Whether you have no credit or poor credit, you can take charge of your financial well-being and steer your credit in the right direction. Our Take Charge Secured Mastercard® can help you build the credit you’ve been wanting—regardless of your past credit history. It’s also the perfect way for young adults to establish credit for a strong financial future. 

Steer steadfast and build your credit wisely!

Do you have travel plans?

Traveling is so much fun! Before you go, please let us know where you're going and when. If we don't know about your trip and we see unusual activity on your account, your Debit and/or Credit Card may be blocked. It is also very important we have your current contact information in the event we need to confirm transactions.

Due to an increase in fraudulent activity, all foreign card transactions have been blocked. Therefore, you are not able to use your Debit or Credit Card at ATMs or merchants outside of the United States unless a temporary exemption is applied. 

To ensure your trip goes smoothly, please contact us prior to your departure. You can do this by calling our Card Services Department at 757.416.6161 or by sending us a message through Virtual Branch Home Banking. Please include as many details as possible, such as specific states, countries and travel dates.
