Electronic Services

Welcome Credit Union offers four convenient electronic services to help make accessing your Credit Union accounts easier:

 


TellerLine Audio Response System

An Audio Response system called TellerLine is available to help you access your Credit Union accounts from any touch-tone phone.

  • With TellerLine, you have access to your Credit Union accounts anytime, seven days a week.

  • The system allows you to make inquiries and transfers on both savings and checking accounts simply by using a touch-tone phone along with your account number and Personal Identification Number (PIN).

  • Your PIN ensures security.

  • No fees for inquiries through TellerLine.

  • If you have an approved TellerLine account with Welcome Credit Union, the TellerLine phone number is 800-388-8380.  If you have misplaced your TellerLine card with the phone number, please contact your Credit Union branch.

  • Keeping in touch with your money is as easy as a phone call!

  • TellerLine is also available in Spanish.

For more information about TellerLine or to obtain an application for this service, please call or stop by any of our branch offices.


Automated Teller Machine (ATM) Cards

With your Welcome Credit Union ATM card, simply insert the card into an ATM and key in your Personal Identification Number (PIN). The electronic processing network (CIRRUS®) will check for data validation and sufficient funds, then you'll receive your cash on the spot. The amount is deducted from your Credit Union savings account.

  • You can use your ATM card to check your Credit Union savings account balance and make savings withdrawals.

  • You'll have 24-hour access to your Credit Union savings account. Since our ATM cards are on the CIRRUS® network, you can use your card worldwide.

  • In most cases, the Credit Union will pay the CIRRUS® network and service charges.  However, you will likely be charged a service fee by the owner of the ATM you use.  These fees will vary per transaction and WCU has no control over the amount you are charged.

  • To avoid ATM fees in the State of North Carolina, you can use any Coastal Federal Credit Union ATM or any CASHPOINTS ATM. There are approximately 600 CASHPOINTS ATMs located throughout the state.

  • Surcharge-free ATMs are available in Pennsylvania, West Virginia, Maryland, Virginia, Ohio, and North Carolina at over 330 Sheetz Convenience Stores.  Sheetz is open 24 hours a day, 365 days a year.  To locate a store near you, visit www.sheetz.com or phone 800-487-5444.

                                                          

  • You can make up to three withdrawals per day.

  • You can withdraw up the $300.00 per day.

  • No annual fee

  • No monthly fee

You qualify for an ATM card if you meet one of the following criteria:

  • An average minimum savings balance of $300.00, or

  • Automated monthly deposit to your WCU savings account of at least $100.00, or

  • Own a regular Credit Union Term Share Certificate or a Credit Union IRA account.

Debit Cards

Debit cards give you the financial freedom of a checking account without carrying a checkbook.

Easier than writing a check and safer than carrying cash, a debit card provides financial convenience. Even though it is not a credit card, a Welcome Credit Union CheckCard is accepted by merchants around the globe anywhere MasterCard® is accepted. The difference is that your debit card is linked to your Credit Union checking account and purchases are automatically deducted from that account. Think of your debit card as an electronic check. Just present your CheckCard to the merchant at the time of purchase. You need to keep your receipts, and when it's convenient, enter the transactions and amounts into your checkbook register - just as you would if you'd written a check.

Your monthly statement will reflect all debit card and electronic transactions. Be sure to accurately balance your checkbook each month.

Benefits of a Welcome Credit Union CheckCard:

  • No annual fee

  • No interest charges

  • Protected by a PIN (Personal Identification Number)

  • Use your CheckCard instead of cash, checks, and credit cards

  • No monthly payments

  • Use your CheckCard anywhere MasterCard® is accepted for groceries, gasoline, gifts, shopping, meals at restaurants or any of your everyday needs!

  • Use your CheckCard to access savings and checking through worldwide CIRRUS® network ATM machines.

  • In most cases, the Credit Union will pay the CIRRUS® network and service charges.  However, you will likely be charged a service fee by the owner of the ATM you use.  These fees will vary per transaction and WCU has no control over the amount you are charged.

  • To avoid ATM fees in the State of North Carolina, you can use any Coastal Federal Credit Union ATM or any CASHPOINTS ATM. There are approximately 600 CASHPOINTS ATMs located throughout the state.

  • Surcharge-free ATMs are available in Pennsylvania, West Virginia, Maryland, Virginia, Ohio, and North Carolina at over 330 Sheetz Convenience Stores.  Sheetz is open 24 hours a day, 365 days a year.  To locate a store near you, visit www.sheetz.com or phone 800-487-5444.
     

                                                    

  • Our debit card program includes the PULSE® network system. The PULSE® network expands your accessibility to the Credit Union and provides the cash-back feature at participating point-of-sale terminals.

  • It's easy, convenient, and hassle-free!

  • For your protection, and ours, we have a fraud detection system called a neural network. This system will help track potential fraudulent activity on your debit card.

  • MasterCard Securecode – Added Protection For You!

    MasterCard Securecode provides added protection to the online purchases you make with your Welcome Credit Union debit card (check card). You’ll need to establish a password to use with your debit card for shopping online. You can access the registration site through the following MasterCard Securecode link.

    Welcome Credit Union

    When you purchase items online, upon checkout, you’ll be asked to enter your MasterCard Securecode password to verify that you are the person making the online purchase. Once you enter your password, your purchase will be complete.

    In the near future, this program will be mandatory for all online merchants. Until then, some merchants may ask for your password and some may not. (Participating merchants are listed on the registration web site.) Once all merchants are participating, you can enjoy the benefit of knowing that if your debit card is ever lost or stolen, no online purchases can be made without your Securecode password.

Frequent PayIT Question and Answers

 

Q.        What information do I need to set up a merchant through Bill Pay (PayIT)?

A.        You will need your billing statement for each merchant you want to set up.  The statement should contain the required information including merchant name, address, phone number, your account number, payment amount, etc.  You may set up as many payees as you want for up to two WCU checking accounts.

 

Q.        How much time should I allow for the merchants to receive the payments I’ve authorized?

A.        The first time you authorize a payment to an individual merchant, you should allow (5) five business days for the payment to reach the merchant.  Virtual Branch will determine whether the merchant will accept payments electronically when the first payment is processed.  If the merchant will receive them electronically, you should then allow 2 (two) business days for the payment to reach the merchant.  The required amount of time will be disclosed on the top of the payment information page for each merchant after the first payment has been made.

 

Q.        Is there a daily cutoff time for processing my payments through Bill Pay?

A.        You must request payments to be processed before 2:00 p.m. Eastern Time, USA, on a Business Day at least five business days prior to the due date.  Payments scheduled after 2:00 p.m. will be processed on the next business day.
