Frequently Asked Questions

Will my eAlerts ever expire?

Once a recurring alert is set up, if it has not triggered within two years the alert will expire. If a recurring alert expires and if you wish to keep the alert active, you must set it up again. Check eAlerts will expire in six months. You will not be notified when alerts expire.

How many eAlerts am I allowed to sign up for?

There is no limit to the number of account alerts you can sign up for. Keep in mind that multiple alerts on specific accounts may become hard to manage and could trigger multiple notifications for each transaction.

I want the eAlerts to go both by text and by email, can I do this?

You will need to set up specific alerts for the same event, one for your email and one for your phone.

I want an eAlert to notify me at multiple email addresses, can I do this?

You can add more than one email address during the alert setup. To have the messages work correctly, separate the email address by a comma with no spaces (i.e. youremail1@yourdomain.com, youremail2@yourdomain.com).

What if I change my phone number or my email address, will I still receive my eAlerts?

You will need to update your eAlerts with the proper alert information. eAlerts delivered through Mobile Money will automatically be updated.

Does the eAlert contain account information?

For security purposes, all account numbers in eAlerts will display only a partial account number.

Why didn’t I receive an alert message when I know I should have?

eAlerts are delivered by our system when an event is triggered by specific account information you entered during your eAlert setup. Either your transaction did not meet the specific event requirements, the phone number or email address entered was incorrect or there was an issue with the message delivery.
