Your debit card also works as an ATM card when used at an ATM and allows access to the available funds in your savings account. For your safety, we limit ATM withdrawals to $500 per card, per day.

Many merchants allow you to get cash back when using your debit card as a Point-of-Sale transaction by entering your 4 digit PIN.
