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.
