Contactless cards are now available to Credit Union 1 members. These cards feature tap-to-pay technology that saves you from swiping or inserting your card into a machine.
Why are contactless cards great? Contactless cards offer enhanced convenience and peace-of-mind. Enjoy tap-to-pay technology (instead of swiping or inserting your card) wherever merchants display the contactless symbol.
Can I get one at my local CU1 branch? Contactless cards are not yet available in CU1 branches for "instant issue," but when your current card expires, we will mail you a free contactless replacement. If you'd like a contactless card sooner, you can call us at (907) 339-9485 and purchase a replacement.
Do contactless cards look different? Our new contactless cards have a modern updated design and a contactless symbol on the front. Also, you'll notice that your card number is found on the back of contactless cards rather than the front.
Are contactless cards secure? Contactless cards offer the same level of security as using the "chip" feature of chipped cards.
