How do I set up Text Banking and Automated Alerts?

Text Banking and Automated Alerts enable you to receive a variety of account-related notifications via your mobile phone. You can receive Automated Alerts by email as well.  

To set up these services, sign in to Digital Banking. Select Additional Services at the top of the screen and then Text Banking & Alerts. You will first be taken to an Alerts and Notifications screen, where you can sign up for Automated Alerts. If you enter your mobile phone number on this screen, the number will carry over when you set up Text Banking. 

To set up Automated Alerts

• Enter your email address if you want to receive Automated Alerts by email.
• Next, enter your phone number and click Activate. A verification code will be sent to the phone number provided. Enter this code in your Digital Banking and click Accept.
• To choose and set up your alerts, select the Add an alert button.

Automated alerts are sent throughout the day. In most cases, this means you will be notified about events such as low balances, large deposits or large withdrawals about 20-30 minutes after they happen. 

How to set up Text Banking with text messaging commands

• Under Text Message Banking (to the right of Alerts and Notifications) select Update.
• If you want, you can enter a second phone number here.
