Debit/ATM Card

MasterMoney™ Debit/ATM Card - FREE With Checking Account!
|
A new, more convenient way to shop
The MasterMoney Debit Card is the easy way to pay for purchases from your Checking Account --- all over the world. It's welcome everywhere MasterCard® is accepted. The MasterMoney Debit Card also gives you convenient 24-hour access to your RFCU accounts through thousands of ATMS that are part of the NYCE®, Jeannie®, SUM, and Cirrus® networks.
It's easy to use!
For purchases, just present your card at the time of purchase. At some merchant locations, such as grocery stores and gas stations, you may need to 'swipe' your card through a card reader terminal and enter your Personal Identification Number (PIN). The funds will be deducted from your account immediately, just like cash. If you swipe your card and do not enter your PIN, it may take up to 5 days for the funds to be debited from your account. In either case, you'll get a receipt to take with you and each transaction will appear on your monthly checking account statement.
At ATM and cash machines, use your card like you would an ATM card.
There are no fees when you use your Master Money Debit Card for purchases, or when you use your card for Point of Sale Purchases which require you to enter your Personal Identification Number (PIN) rather than signing a receipt.
A MasterMoney Debit Card is only available with a checking account to qualified applicants.

To start taking advantage of the Master Money/ATM Card, complete the MasterMoney Debit and Automated Teller Machine (ATM) Card Application.
Once we receive your application, your card will be ordered. You should receive your card within 14 business days. A randomly generated PIN will be assigned and mailed, separately from your card. You may change the generated PIN, at any RFCU ATM located at one of our branches or by visiting a Member Service Representative at one of our branches.

CashRewards Rules
- Every dollar in purchases you make with your Rockland Federal Credit Union credit card to your Visa Platinum account covered by the CashRewards Program ("Program") and that appears on your statement during the Program period, earns CashRewards credit as provided in these Rules, under Rockland Federal Credit Union's most current CashRewards schedule. CashRewards is earned with purchases made by you beginning on the first day in which your Program begins and is posted to your account annually.
- Your periodic statement will normally include a year-to-date accounting total of your CashRewards credits but may be adjusted as provided for in these Rules. CashRewards credits will be deducted from your current total of credits earned for corresponding retail purchase returns posted to your card account.
- Your account must be open and clear (i.e. not cancelled, terminated, delinquent, or otherwise not available to use for charges) at the time each year CashRewards are posted to your account or when CashRewards rebate checks are mailed by Rockland Federal Credit Union. Otherwise, your CashRewards credit will be forfeited. CashRewards credits are not exchangeable or transferable.
- This program may be modified, suspended or cancelled at any time without restriction or penalty. CashRewards credit may be forfeited due to violations of these Rules. This Program is void where prohibited or restricted by law. You are responsible for any federal, state or local income or other taxes.
