In addition, if you have a First National Bank of Fort Smith, Citizens Bank and Trust Company,

of Fort Smith VISA® Debit Card, we provide the following required notice:

Notice Regarding non-VISA® Pin-less Debit Card Transactions

We allow non-Visa® debit transaction processing. This means you may use your VISA® Debit Card on a PIN-Debit Network (a non-VISA® Network)* without using a PIN to authenticate your transactions.

The non-VISA® debit network for which such transactions are allowed is the Pulse Network.

Examples of the types of actions that you may be required to take to initiate a VISA® transaction on your VISA® Debit Card include signing a receipt or using Verified by VISA® over the Internet.

Non VISA® transactions do not require you to take any action to authorize the transaction.

Please be advised that the terms and conditions of your agreement with us relating to VISA® debit transactions do not apply to non-VISA® debit transactions. For example, the additional limits on liability (sometimes referred to as Visa's zero-liability program) and the streamlined error resolution procedures are not applicable.

If you have any questions about non-VISA® debit transactions, please contact us at the appropriate address.

*VISA® rules generally define Pin-Debit Network as a non-VISA® debit network that typically authenticates transactions by use of a personal identification number (PIN) but that is not generally known for having a card program.
