WHERE THE GRASS IS GREENER

PINLESS DEBIT TRANSACTION DISCLOSURE

Your Visa debit card allows you to conduct transactions on the CO-OP, INTERLINK, NYCE orPLUS networks. Some merchants are authorizedto accept non-Visa debit transactions withoutrequiring you to enter your PIN. If you choose to sign to authorize a debit transaction, the transaction will be routed as a Visa transaction.Provisions of your cardholder agreement thatspecifically relate to Visa transactions are inapplicable to non-Visa transactions. Forinstance, a non-Visa debit transaction will notprovide Visa’s Zero Liability Protection benefit.
