  • You can be notified for the following options: 
    • If your account balance drops below a pre-specified amount
    • If your balance exceeds a pre-specified amount
    • If a credit or debit transaction exceeds a pre-specified amount (Note: this amount can be as low as $0 to alert you for all transactions)

Security Alerts (real-time)

Security alerts allow you to be notified in real-time about any or all of the following changes:

  • When your ID, password, email address, phone number, alert preferences, or other settings have been changed
  • If a PIN has been enabled or disabled
  • If a transfer has been conducted of a pre-specified dollar amount or more

Visa® Purchase Alerts

Visa Purchase Alerts are real-time text or email alerts when you pay with your Visa Credit Card. These alerts may help keep your account secure by empowering you to catch fraud. (Note: First Northern Debit Cards can be controlled within mobile or online banking.)

The SecurLock Credit Card Control App allows you to control how, where, and when your credit cards are used via your mobile device. Turn your card on or off with the touch of a button, set location-based controls, block international transactions, or set spending limits.
