Verified by VISA®
A new service by Visa allows you to add a personal password
to your existing APGFCU Visa credit or APGFCU Visa check
cards. When you make purchases at participating online
stores, you'll validate your identity by entering your
password in a special "Verified by Visa" window.
This added security will help in reducing fraud and minimizing
risk sometimes associated with purchasing online. To register
your Visa cards, go to the Visa
section of our website and then click on the Verified
by Visa logo. It's a simple way for added identity
protection.
Member Photo ID
Available at all our locations, our Member Photo ID program
allows you to attach a digital picture of yourself to
your account in our computer. When you come in to do your
transactions, you don’t need to show your ID card
or a driver’s license. The teller will simply pull
up your photo and ask you to smile! Attaching your photograph
makes fraudulent access to your APGFCU accounts practically
impossible. Someone may find your ID card in a parking
lot or steal your wallet, but they can’t steal your
smile. Stop in today and take this easy step to protect
your identity.
