There are three different forms of IRAs:

ACH debit payments are any payments taken directly from your savings and/or checking account. These could include credit card, mortgage or utility bill payments made directly to the merchant. For example, when establishing your electric bill payment through the company’s website, you are asked to enter your account number and financial institution’s routing number. Through the ACH network, the funds are withdrawn directly from your account, sent to the electric company’s financial institution and applied to your bill. ACH debits do not include charges made with your debit or credit card, or through online banking bill pay.

With same-day ACH debits, you can be sure a merchant receives your payment on time, which helps you avoid late payments and late fees.

1. ACH Direct Deposit: This transaction occurs when you receive funds directly into your account, such as your payroll check, government benefits, taxes and other refunds, retirement benefits, etc.
2. ACH Credit: This ACH transaction transfers funds into another account. Payments made through Online Banking Bill Pay is an example of an ACH credit payment. Through Bill Pay, you authorize Jeanne D’Arc Credit Union to credit a person or company’s account (i.e. your landlord) from your account using their account number and routing number.
3. ACH Debit: This ACH transaction pulls funds directly from your savings or checking account. If you initiate payments for your mortgage, credit card or utility bill with the merchant, in person, on the phone, or through their website, the merchant uses your account number and routing number to withdraw the payment from your account.

ACH transactions do not include any payments made with your debit or credit card.

PMI is required by lenders when a loan is originated and closed with less than a 20% down payment. If you are approved for a mortgage that requires PMI. A mortgage approval does not guarantee qualification for PMI.

For a first mortgage, you would take the loan amount and divide that by the appraised value or purchase price, whichever is less.

For example: If you request an $80,000 loan divided by an appraised value of $100,000, your LTV is 80%.

Documents for a Pre-approval:

• 2 years of the most recent personal & business tax returns, including all schedules; if self-employed
• 2 most recent consecutive pay stubs
• 2 most recent W2s
• 2 months of the most recent asset statements *all pages required* (savings, checking, retirement and investment accounts)

We do not extend a home equity loan or line of credit on mobile homes or investment properties. A Home Equity Loan and a Home Equity Line of Credit can be taken out on a primary residence or secondary residence.

• A Home Equity Loan, aka HELOAN, is a fixed rate loan. It is an installment and a closed end loan. You choose the term of the loan and once the loan is paid in full, the loan would be automatically closed.
• A Home Equity Line of Credit, aka HELOC, is based on a variable rate. The term is 20 years with the first 10 years being the draw period and the remaining 10 years being a repayment period. The Line of Credit is a revolving and an open end loan. Similar to a credit card, the minimum payments due are interest only and you would only pay interest if you carried a balance. Members are able to draw, pay back, and continue to use the Line of Credit (given the availability) within the first 10 years. Unlike the Home Equity Loan, the balance of a Line of Credit can be paid in full and remain open, unless requested to be closed by the borrower. If there is a balance at the end of 10 years; the balance will be divided amongst the repayment period.

A FICO® Score is a type of credit score, which is a three-digit number that summarizes the data in your credit report. A FICO® Score is one of the many pieces of information lenders use to determine how likely you are to pay back a loan and to decide if they will lend you money. This is also known as your “credit risk”. When it comes to borrowing money, your FICO® Score may impact your interest rate and/or loan term.

Since FICO® Scores are used in over 90% of lending decisions, a lender may use your credit score when you apply for any kind of loan, mortgage or credit card, or when you request a credit card line increase.

The higher your FICO® Score, the lower credit risk you may be considered. Your score is made up of five key factors. These five factors are payment history, total amount owed, length of credit history, types of credit and new credit. Each factor impacts your credit score by a certain percent.

Payment History
Determined by how well you pay credit accounts. This includes credit cards, mortgage, student loans, car loans and auto leases. Lenders like to see consistent, on-time payments and no delinquencies on all accounts.

Amounts Owed
Considers how much debt you already have and how much of your available credit you use.

Length of Credit History
Considers how long your accounts have been open. A longer credit history provides more payment history information that can be used to determine your FICO® Score.

Types of Credit
Considers the mix of accounts you have, such as credit cards, retail accounts, other lines of credit and installment loans.

New Credit
This represents the frequency of credit inquiries and new account openings.

The range between a “good” and “bad” FICO® Score depends on the type of FICO® Score being used. There are actually different types of FICO® Scores institutions use depending on the industry. It is possible for auto lenders, credit card companies and mortgage companies to use different types of FICO® Scores.

Jeanne D’Arc Credit Union uses FICO® Score 2, based on Experian data.

The range of FICO® Score 2 is 300-850. Here is how the scores are broken down:
800 or higher: Exceptional
740-799: Very Good
670-739: Good
580-669: Fair
579 or lower: Poor

Using a FICO® Score makes the process of lending and obtaining credit more streamlined. It also makes it fair amongst all borrowers because everyone’s credit risk is determined by the same standard.

A FICO® Score gives lenders a fast, objective estimate of your credit risk. A FICO® Score may help you get credit faster, save you money, expand the amount of credit made available to you, and provide unbiased credit decisions.

Not everyone has a FICO® Score. Below are a few reasons you may not have a score:

1. You do not have one account that has been open for six months or more.
2. You do not have at least one account that has been reported to a credit bureau within the past six months.
3. Your credit report states that you are deceased.

Please keep in mind that these are just a few possible reasons why you may not have a FICO® Score. There could be something else within your credit report that causes you to not have a score.

As mentioned previously, your credit score is determined by five key actors. When viewing your FICO® Score, take a look at the “Score Factors” section. This section tells you the factors that are affecting your credit score most. Be sure to note the order in which the score factors are listed. The first factor indicates the area that impacts your score the most, and the second factor has the next most significant influence. Addressing these factors can benefit the score.

Because institutions use different types of scores, it’s normal for your credit score to vary between institutions. If you receive your credit score from one institution, and it is different from the one you received from another institution, consider the following:

1. Which type of credit score is being used?
   → Each type of credit score uses a different scoring model. The two credit scores
   you are comparing could be based on two different score versions.
2. What date was the credit score pulled?
   → Information on your credit report changes as the way you handle credit changes. Take a look at the date each score was pulled. It’s possible that they were pulled at two different times, which could explain any variance.
3. Which credit bureau provided the scores?
   → Experian, Equifax and TransUnion all hold different information in your credit report, and therefore, scores from each bureau will not be the same. Check to see which bureau calculated the score. If you see that it’s from two different bureaus, this is likely a reason for the discrepancy. Jeanne D’Arc Credit Union obtains consumer credit data from Experian.

Since your FICO® Score is based on the information in your credit report, and that information changes as you change the way you handle credit, it is normal for your score to fluctuate. Each time you check your FICO® Score, take a look at the Score Factors. These will be good indicators as to what is causing your score to increase or decrease.

You can view your credit report for free on annualcreditreport.com. You can also call 1-877- 322-8228 or submit the Annual Credit Report Request Form to:

Annual Credit Report Request Service
P.O. Box 105281
Atlanta, GA 30348-5281

You are allowed to order one free copy of your credit report from Equifax, Experian and TransUnion once every 12 months.

It’s advised that you view your credit report throughout the year to ensure all information is accurate. Staying on top of your credit reports could also help you catch possible fraud or identity theft in the event you become a victim. A good habit to obtain is to order your credit report from one credit bureau every four months. That way, at the end of the year, you’ve viewed your report once from each bureau, and can continue to monitor it each year.

No. Checking your FICO® Score or pulling your own credit report will not hurt your score.

If you notice an error on your credit report, immediately contact the credit bureau that notes the error and the institution that provided the information to the credit bureau in writing.

Apple Pay™ is considered to be more secure than using an ordinary plastic debit or credit card.

• Every transaction on your iPhone or iPad requires you to authenticate with Touch ID or your passcode.
• Your card number and identity aren’t shared with the merchant, and your actual card numbers aren’t stored on your device or on Apple servers.
• Apple Pay™ does not store details of your transactions. Your most recent transactions can be viewed in Wallet, but only for your convenience.

To use Apple Pay™, you need to first add a debit, credit, or store credit card into your Wallet App.

Be sure your cellular data is on for the Wallet App. To do this, go to Settings, scroll down to find the Wallet App to turn it on.

To add your Jeanne D’Arc Credit/Debit card on your iPhone, open Wallet and tap in the + on the upper-right corner. If you do not see the app icon on your home screen, look in the “Extras” category folder.

If you already have your card on file with iTunes, you can quickly add it by typing in the security code when prompted.

You can also choose to add a different card using the iSight camera or by entering your card information manually.

• Your bank will verify adding the card to Apple Pay™.
• They might ask you to provide more information to complete the verification process.

To add a credit or debit card on iPad, go to Settings > Wallet & Apple Pay™, tap Add Credit or Debit Card, then follow the same steps for iPhone above.

Apple Pay™ for Apple Watch can be used on iPhone 5 and later.

To add a card already set up on your iPhone:

• Go to the Apple Watch App and click the My Watch tab.
• Scroll down and click Wallet and Apple Pay™.
• Tap “Add” next to the card you want to add and follow the instructions.

To add a new card:

• Tap add debit or credit card, click next and follow the instructions.

Apple Pay™ can be used at any store that has a contactless payment method on their card machines. Look for these symbols to know that you can make your purchase with Apple Pay™. Once prompted, simply hold your device over the contactless card reader with your finger on the home button to activate the Touch ID. That’s it.

To pay with your Apple Watch, double-click the side button and hold your watch over the reader. Note: The default card will show, but if you want to change cards, just swipe.

To make in-app purchases, look for these symbols within the payment options to pay with Touch ID:

Depending on the store and the transaction amount, you may need to sign a receipt when paying with Apple Pay™.

Apple Pay™ requires you to use Touch ID or a passcode in order to successfully make any purchase. These components prevent other people from using Apple Pay™ on your iPhone, iPad, or Apple Watch who do not have access or permission to use those features.

You can go to icloud.com/find or use the Find My iPhone app to suspend or permanently remove the ability to pay from that device with Apple Pay™. Your cards will be suspended or removed from Apple Pay™ even if your device is offline and not connected to a cellular or Wi-Fi network. You can also call your bank to suspend or remove your cards from Apple Pay™.

When you suspend or remove your cards in Wallet, it does not affect the actual plastic cards you carry. You may still use your plastic cards whenever you would like to make a purchase.

The first card you add into Wallet will be your default card. To change your default card, open Wallet, touch and hold the card you want to make the default and drag in front of the other cards.

To change the default on your iPad, go to Settings > Wallet & Apple Pay™, tap “Default Card” and choose a new card.

To change your default card on your Apple Watch, open the Watch app on your iPhone and tap the My Watch tab, scroll down and tap Wallet & Apple Pay™, tap “Default Card” and tap a card.

Google Pay™ is the fast, simple way to pay for in-store and online purchases with your Jeanne D’Arc Credit Union Visa® Debit or Credit Card. It brings together everything you need at checkout and keeps your payment info safe in your Google Account until you’re ready to pay. Plus, Google Pay™ makes it easy to keep track of purchases, redeem loyalty points, and get personalized suggestions to help you save time and money.

Google Pay™ is available on Android smartphones running on Kit Kat (4.4) or higher. Your device also has to be NFC and HCE-enabled. To check if NFC/HCE is enabled on your phone, go to “Settings,” select “More” and look for “NFC.” If it’s turned off, turn it on. When NFC is enabled, HCE will also automatically turn on.

When you use your phone to pay in stores, Google Pay™ doesn’t send your actual credit or debit card number with your payment. Instead, a virtual account number is used to represent your account information – so your card details stay safe.

To set up Google Pay™ on your device, you need the Google Pay™ app. Most devices come with the app already downloaded, but if you can’t find it on your device, visit the Google Play Store and download it from there.

Once in the Google Pay™ App, click “Add a credit or debit card.” You may be asked to set up a screen lock passcode if you don’t already have one enabled. Once set up, you can add the details of your Jeanne D’Arc Credit Union Visa Credit or Debit Card. Once complete, you can start using Google Pay™!

You can use Google Pay™ in-store, online and in-app wherever you see these logos:

To use Google Pay™ in-store, simply unlock your Android smartphone and tap the back of the phone to a contactless payment reader.

To use Google Pay™ online or in-app, select the Google Pay option in the payment methods. Simply, select the card you want to use for that purchase and complete your order.

You will also receive your loyalty points and discounts in the same way you do when you use your regular plastic cards.

Google Pay™ works with most major credit and debit card retailers. To view the complete list, visit pay.google.com/about.

Google Pay™ is available at hundreds of your favorite retailers, both in-store and online. To view the complete list, visit pay.google.com/about.

If you’ve misplaced your phone or if it’s been stolen, you can use the Android Device Manager to locate the phone and see when it’s last been used. You can also use the Device Manager to ring, lock or erase the device. The Device Manager is accessible via the website, www.android.com/devicemanager, or through the Android Device Manager App.

Samsung Pay™ is a mobile payments service that allows users to make secure in-store purchases by using their latest Samsung smartphone device.

Samsung Pay™ is available on the Galaxy Note8 and later devices. It’s also available on the Gear S3 and later Classic watches.

Like other mobile payments services, Samsung Pay™ is more secure than using a regular plastic debit or credit card to make purchases. When you make a purchase with Samsung Pay™, your card number and information is never sent to the merchant. Instead, a “token” takes the place of your account number for each purchase. The “token” is the number used to complete your transaction, so your real card information is never used. Payments are also only authorized by your fingerprint, iris or PIN, and Samsung uses their Samsung Knox technology to monitor your phone and data. This provides a few layers of security so your information is always safe.

To get started with Samsung Pay™, you first need the Samsung Pay™ app. The app is pre-downloaded on most devices, but if you can’t find it on your particular smartphone, go to the Google Play Store and download it from there.

Once in the Samsung Pay™ app, you will be asked to log into your Samsung Account. After you successfully log in, you will be asked to add your fingerprint. This will be used to authorize your transactions. Once added, you will set up a backup password and your Samsung Pay™ PIN.

Once your security is set up, you can go ahead and add your Jeanne D’Arc Credit Union Visa Credit or Debit card by selecting “Add Card.” The app allows you to use your camera to capture the card information, or you can enter the information manually. Continue through the Add Card instructions by entering all required information. You will then be asked by your bank to verify the card with an email, text or phone call verification code. You may choose how you want to receive the code. Once the code is received and entered, your card will successfully be set up and ready for use!

You can use Samsung Pay™ at almost all point-of-sale systems, including the older magnetic stripe terminals. Simply swipe up on your Samsung phone, verify your fingerprint and hold the back of the phone over the payment terminal.

In addition to debit and credit cards, you can also add retailer reward/membership cards and gift cards.

To view a complete list of cards and banks that allow Samsung Pay™, visit www.samsung.com/us/samsung-pay and scroll to the “All Your Cards” section.

Transactions cannot be authorized without your fingerprint verification or correct Samsung Pay™ PIN. This feature prevents other people from using Samsung Pay™ on your smartphone. For extra security, you can use your Samsung Account and log in to “Find My Mobile” at findmymobile.samsung.com. From here, you can lock Samsung Pay™ on your device or completely erase the cards that are held within the app. You can also locate the phone on a map.

Log into Online Banking from a desktop computer or the mobile app. Accept the Terms and Conditions.

Yes, you can pay anyone including your cable company, doctor or Uncle Charlie.

On a desktop computer, select Add Payee. From the mobile app, select Manage Payees, then Add. Once you add your payees, you can start using Bill Pay. Select the Payee you would like to pay, enter the payment details and hit Submit Payment. If you’d like to schedule a payment, edit the “Start Date” or ” Send On” date. If you’d like to set a recurring payment, edit the Frequency details.

No, Bill Payment only accepts payments from checking accounts.

Your payment is sent to the address you provided for each of your Payees except in certain situations where our Bill Payment provider has a special relationship with a Payee. In that case, the payment will be sent to the preferred address.

Only you can authorize payments. You tell us who, when, and how much to pay. Payments are issued electronically or via paper checks, depending on the Payee’s capability. Both electronic payments and paper checks always include remittance information, ensuring that your Payee can accurately record that a payment has been received for your account.

Yes, Bill Payment does not replace your checkbook. You can continue to write paper checks as you normally would if you so choose.

Some Payees do not currently accept electronic payments and therefore only accept check payments. In this case, it is recommended that you set the “Send On” date at least five (5) business days in advance of the due date on your bill. Note that when you select your send on date, or use the dynamic calendar to select a send on date, a “Deliver By” date will be displayed. This is the date that the bill payment provider guarantees that your payment will be delivered to your Payee.

For Example: If your payment is due to the Payee on the 15th of the month and you set the Send On date in advance as the 10th, your check will be mailed to your Payee via first class mail. The money will be deducted from your account within 1-2 days of the Send On date you provided.

Also note that if you wait until the 10th to set the payment to go out, you must authorize your payment before 9:00 PM Eastern. (If you schedule the payment after 9:00 PM Eastern, your payment will not be issued the same day, but the following morning).

For Payees who can accept Electronic Funds Transfers (EFT’s), we recommend that you set the Send On date at least three (3) business days in advance of the due date. If you authorize payment in advance, your funds will be sent after 10:30 PM Eastern on the day you designate, which is your Send On date. To have an Electronic Funds Transfer issued on the same day that you authorize payment, you must authorize the transaction by 10:30 PM Eastern. Please note that some EFT transactions may clear your account the same day they are issued. Be sure your account has enough money available, in advance of the Send On date, to avoid bounced payments.

Within the Bill Pay, you can access the History tab. This shows you all of the bill payments you have scheduled and have successfully made.

If the payee is being paid with either a paper check or an electronic payment, the amount of the payment will be deducted from your account within three (3) business days of your Send On date (the payment processing date). Please note that some electronic payment transactions (EFT’s) may clear your account the same day they are issued. Be sure your account is funded in advance to avoid bounced payments.

To cancel a payment, click “Delete” next to the payment. There are two cutoff times to cancel payments, 3:00 pm EST for same day payments and 2:00 am EST for future scheduled payments. For example: If you enter a payment today, to be paid today, you have until 3:00 pm EST to cancel the payment. If you schedule a payment today, to process next Tuesday, you have until 2:00 am EST on Tuesday to cancel the payment.

You have the following options:

• One time
• Weekly*
• Every two weeks*
• Every four weeks*
• Monthly*
• Every other month*
• Quarterly*
• Every 6 months*
• Annually*

Due to legal requirements, we limit the ability to make certain types of payments. Payments to Payees outside of the United States are prohibited, and may not be issued under any circumstances. In addition, the following payments are discouraged, but may be scheduled at your own risk:

• Tax payments to the Internal Revenue Service or any state or other government agency
• Court-ordered payments, such as alimony or child support
• Payments to insurance companies

Our bill payment provider will not notify you if you attempt to make any of these payments. In addition, they will not be liable if the payment was not processed on such payments.

We issue standard, approved payments against your Checking Account. Just as with a paper check, you have to maintain sufficient funds in the account to cover all payment obligations. We are unable to notify you if you have insufficient funds. Please note that you may be charged a Insufficient Funds Fee for payments that are returned for insufficient funds. Please note that Bill Pay account will be blocked until the payment is satisfied.

e-Bills allow you to receive your bills electronically within online banking. Your payees must offer this option in order to take advantage of this feature. When adding a payee who is eligible for e-Bills you can select “Set Up eBills” and verify your account with specific information. For example, you may be asked to provide your user name and password for the provider, your account number, your billing zip code and/or the last four digits of your Social Security or Tax Identification Number. You will then be able to see your bill amount and due date from within Bill Pay. This makes paying your bills quick and easy.

Any recently received e-Bills waiting to be paid are displayed with the e-Bills tab. You will also receive an email from [email protected] stating that an e-Bill has been delivered to you.

First, you register with your biller’s website. Then, you provide us with your user ID and password, and we’ll go to your biller’s website and retrieve your bill for each month. That way you can come to one place and see all your bills.

Yes, there are two ways that you can schedule payments automatically: Automatic Payments and Recurring Payments. Each is used in different circumstances.

Automatic payments typically are used in situations where you are receiving your bill electronically (e-bills).

If you would like to automatically pay a bill that arrives to you, you may establish automatic payment rules. The automatic payment rule instructs us to issue a payment every month for a specific Payee without requiring your approval each time. You can pay the full bill, pay the minimum due, or pay a fixed amount that you are comfortable paying each month. For example, you could set up your credit card bill to be paid automatically in three different ways:

• Pay the entire bill if it is a specific amount you designate, or less. You are contacted by email for approval if it is more than the desired amount.
• Pay the minimum amount due every month.
• Pay a specific amount, designated by you, every month.

Recurring payments typically work well with fixed payment plans like car loans or mortgages where you are not receiving a bill online (e-bill)

• If you regularly make a payment for a fixed amount, without receiving an e-bill, you can establish a recurring payment rule to make this payment automatically. For example, your mortgage company may have provided you with a coupon book instead of billing you monthly. You can tell us to issue this payment to your mortgage company each month.

Yes, you can pay your bills all at once using the “Multi Pay” tab.

A filed bill is one that you do not want to pay through your Bill Pay, but want to save for your records, such as, a bill with a zero balance or a bill that no longer needs to be paid. Once you file a bill, it is permanently removed from your Bill Inbox and cannot be paid.

Some Payees may continue to send a paper bill to your home even after you begin receiving the bill online. To avoid making duplicate payments, it is best to pay only those bills that arrive online. Some Payees may offer the option of “turning off” the paper bill, either by indicating such a preference on their website or by contacting their Customer Service department via phone or e-mail.

Security refers to preventing unauthorized access to a computer system or network. Internet Banking uses several layers of technology to prevent unauthorized users from gaining access to the internal network. Internet Banking’s security professionals manage a sophisticated networking architecture that includes screening routers, filtering routers, and firewalls.

The Internet Banking section is automatically secured/encrypted, but the rest of the Website can be accessed as either secure or unsecure.

Internet Banking is a term for accessing your account information over the Internet. We may refer to it as Internet Account Access or use a different name.

Your online security is important to us, as well as providing you easy and convenient banking tools. Your online banking experience may include a new Enhanced Login Security service to further help protect you from identity theft which is known in the online security industry as Multifactor Authentication, or MFA.

Authentication is the process used to allow access to only the correct customer. Without effective authentication controls, it is possible for fraudulent users to access your account. We authenticate customers by issuing challenges that only the true customer should be able to pass.

Multifactor Authentication means that two or more different types (or factors) of authentication must be passed. By using two different factors of authentication, we get a higher assurance that the customer is the intended user. MFA is commonly used to protect transactions at ATMs, where your card is something you have, and your PIN code is something you know.

For your convenience, after you successfully authenticate with your User ID, password and Login Security (One-Time Passcode (OTP) or Challenge Questions, if available), you may enroll your computer for use in authentication. If you choose to enroll your computer, a special Browser Cookie will be present on the system, which will act in place of your phone for something you have in your possession.

We recommend you ensure that your browser settings and any antivirus software you have do not delete your cookies (data files) so that you are not prompted to provide Login Security (One-Time Passcode (OTP) or Challenge Questions, if available) every time you log into Internet Banking.

When you choose to enroll your computer as PRIVATE, a special Browser Cookie will be present on the system, which will act in place of your Login Security (One-Time Passcode (OTP) or Challenge Questions, if available). You will only need your User ID and password to access your account information.

If you are still getting prompted to provide your Login Security, then please ensure that you have the following:

• Using one of the Recommended Operating Systems for Internet Banking
• Using one of the Recommended Browsers for Internet Banking
• Browser is not set to delete cookies – Please follow the steps in listed in this help for your respective browser to determine if cookies are being deleted
• Any antivirus software is not set to delete cookies
• No viruses or malware on your computer
• No usage of a proxy server or “web accelerator” by your internet service provider
• If using a computer from work, verify that your office technical department is not automating deletion of cookies

When you choose to list your computer as PUBLIC, you will need to provide your User ID, password and you will be prompted to provide your Login Security (One-Time Passcode (OTP) or Challenge Questions, if available) each time you log into your account. We recommend this setting when logging in from a library or school computer.

To ensure security, we recommend the following:

Never reveal your password*.

Important: Some browsers allow you to enable a function to require passwords for specific sites or certifications. In that instance, you should enter the password for the browser.

Passwords are case sensitive. Mixing uppercase and lowercase letters is permitted.

You can change your Internet Banking password under User Options at any time. It is recommended that you change your password every six months.

Warning: We do not have access to your password. In the case of a forgotten password and/or challenge questions, contact our Customer Service and ask them to reset your password for Internet Banking.

Use the Sign Off icon to end a Internet Banking session. This will securely close out your Internet Banking session and expire all the cookies that were set in your session. Do not use the Back key.

Important: If you do not exit the browser, the browser will allow you to use the Back key to get back into your Internet Banking session should you wish to explore another site.

The amount of time you can remain inactive before being automatically logged out of Internet Banking can be set under User Options.

Warning: For your own security, keep this time setting as short as possible.

It is recommended that you balance your account at least once a month so that any discrepancies can be reported in a timely manner.

* Password refers to your telephone access (audio response system, not Bill Payment) password or the password that you selected when you signed up for Internet Banking. We may alternatively use a different name (e.g. “PIN”). If you have questions about what to enter in order to access Internet Banking for the first time, contact our Customer Service.

Internet Banking is optimized to use with certified/recommended operating systems. By using a different operating system, you may not be able to take full advantage of all the features within Internet Banking.

Cookies are small text files on your system, used to keep track of settings or data for a particular site. Web sites can use cookies to identify a returning user or to pass information between Web pages in a single visit.

There are two types of cookies: temporary and permanent. Temporary cookies are used and tracked by the browser to pass information and are deleted once the browser is shut down. Permanent cookies are stored on your system and can be accessed again for multiple visits. Permanent cookies usually have an expiration date and will be automatically deleted from your system at that time. Internet Banking uses temporary cookies and may use permanent cookies, but never passes private information through cookies.

An example of how Internet Banking uses a temporary cookie is in the demo. The browser uses the cookie to either show or hide the overview depending on the user’s choice. Every time the demo is used, that cookie will be used and deleted once the demo is exited or the browser is shut down.

Internet Banking also uses a different kind of temporary cookie known as a session cookie, a non-persistent cookie, or a pre-expired cookie. This cookie is used as part of the stringent security measures in Internet Banking to make sure that each page in Internet Banking is not cached or saved on your system. This means that each page must be retrieved from the Web server. This cookie is deleted when a user logs or times out of Internet Banking or if the browser window is closed and ensures that another user on the same computer cannot access the previous user’s Internet Banking session or information.

If you use Enhanced Security, Internet Banking may place a secure permanent cookie on your computer. This secure cookie is unique, and when used in combination with your login information, creates a unique way to identify you to the system. For every login attempt after you add extra security to a computer, this secure cookie is validated along with the login identification you normally enter. This secure cookie is only used to validate your identity and does not contain any personal information.

JavaScript is a widely accepted, simple programming language that allows a Web site to be more interactive. Web sites can use JavaScript to perform many actions such has calculations, displaying dynamic navigation, and rotating through banner images. By using JavaScript, Web sites can be proactive by making a better internet experience.

An example use of JavaScript in Internet Banking is form validation. Validation is simply enforcing certain rules on different fields. When presented with a phone number field, JavaScript can alert the user if the phone number format is incorrect or if a value in the field is not a number. This allows the form to be filled out and submitted correctly the first time.

If JavaScript is not enabled, some or all of the Internet Banking features may not work. In most browsers, JavaScript is enabled through the adjustment in Security Settings. Please refer to the specific section for your browser by clicking on the link located in the index at the top of the page.

Before initiating your Internet Banking, we first require that a “secure session” is established using Secure Socket Layer (SSL) encryption. This is a process where the information between our server and your browser is encrypted or scrambled so it cannot be read by unauthorized parties.

A general indicator that you have entered a secure session is when the URL (web page address) in the address bar starts with “https” (note the “s” at the end) rather than “http”, your session is secure.

The content of a Web site is created to be best viewed in a range of display sizes or screen resolutions. The display size maximum is determined by your monitor’s maximum display area (by maximizing your browser window) and the display size minimum is user controlled by resizing the window to be smaller then the maximum area allowed.

By viewing a Web site at or above the recommended display size or screen resolution all the Web site content can be seen without scrolling left to right. Each Web site will vary with their recommended display size or screen resolution, but the most recommended browser display size is 1024 width by 768 height (1024 x 768).

Your monitor’s display size, sometimes referred to as the desktop area is a setting controlled by your Operating System. Please refer to your Operating System documentation on how to determine and change your display size.

Adobe Acrobat Reader is a free browser plug-in that can read certain document file types known as PDF (portable document format). Having this plug-in allows you to read a PDF file from your browser window rather than having to open the Adobe Acrobat program to read the file. If you need Adobe Acrobat Reader, follow the directions on Adobe’s Web site.

Internet Banking most commonly uses PDF files for Online Statements and Check Images.

Our site is optimized for use with certified/recommended browsers. If you use a different browser, you may not be able to take full advantage of all the features of the site.

Note: In addition, if America Online (AOL) is embedded within a certified browser, it is also considered to be supported. Otherwise, AOL is no longer a recommended or supported browser and has not been tested as thoroughly as a recommended browser.

Be sure to select a recommended or supported version when downloading at the following locations:

• Google Chrome Download
• Mozilla Firefox Download
• Safari Download
• Microsoft Edge Download

If you can view the other areas of our website, but are unable to access Online Banking, it may indicate a problem on your browser or operation system site in accessing all secure websites. Both your browser and Internet service provider must support secure sites.

This website is designed for the latest versions of Google Chrome, Mozilla Firefox, Safari, or Microsoft Edge. Using other browsers link Microsoft Internet Explorer may cause webpages to appear misaligned and prevent access to Online Banking.

Important: It is highly recommended that the newer browsers be used to access Online Banking.

If you are using one of the browsers mentioned above and are still experiencing a problem, the problem may lie with the Internet service provider. This is particularly common with employer-based access to the Internet. Your employer may have firewalls, proxy servers, or other equipment that may prevent access to secured sites. Contact your company’s Data Processing Department regarding the problem or try to access Internet Banking from another location.

Important: When reporting problems to our Customer Service, have as much information ready as possible (e.g., browser version, etc.).

Receiving the following message after logging in successfully will stop all further processing and/or access to any portion of Internet Banking during this session: “Internet Account Access Session Error.” Return to the login screen to start a new session. This error indicates that you did not accept one or more cookies. In order to enter the secured encrypted site you must accept the cookies. Since there are several within Internet Banking, it is suggested that you disable the cookie alert within your browser while viewing account information.

Important: If you are prompted with a dialog box that asks you to re-enter your password, (after initially entering your User ID and Internet Banking password), your browser may not support JavaScript™, or JavaScript™ may not be enabled. An upgrade may be necessary.

If you have already upgraded your browser, the “Enable JavaScript” function may be disabled.

Additional Third Party Software (TPV): Due to increased security, certain third party toolbars/software may prevent end user access into Internet Banking. This can also include some types of pop-up blockers. In order to log into Internet Banking, this software may need to be disabled or uninstalled. Please refer to the third party vendor instructions for information on how to perform these steps.

Spyware/Adware: Due to increased security, certain spyware/adware may also prevent access into Internet Banking. In order to log into Internet Banking, users must remove this type of software from their computer.

Spyware is Internet jargon for advertising supported software (Adware). It is a way for shareware authors to make money from a product, other than by selling it to the users. Adware typically reports your Internet surfing habits back to a third party site for data collection purposes. In order to protect your financial privacy, it may be necessary to install a spyware/adware search tool to determine if your computer has any of this software installed. If you determine that adware or spyware has been installed on your computer, the software will need to be removed.

A Credit Union is a not for-profit financial institution who is owned by its members. The mission of credit unions around the world is based around the model of “people helping people.” Because credit unions are member owned, non-profit organizations, they are not required driven to make a profit to benefit shareholders. Instead, credit unions are able to re-invest profits into the membership by securing low rates and great financial products.

Membership at Jeanne D’Arc Credit Union is open to everyone who lives, works or attends school in these communities:

Massachusetts counties of Middlesex or Essex; Cities or towns of Fitchburg, Leominster, Harvard, Lunenburg or Lancaster; New Hampshire counties of Hillsborough or Rockingham.

In addition, we can make real estate mortgages on properties within a 100-mile radius of Lowell or anywhere in Massachusetts.

All you need to do is open a membership account with Jeanne D’Arc with a $5.00 deposit. This money stays in your membership account until it is closed.

Simply put, we’ve eliminated the “middle man.” Banks are owned by stockholders, and stockholders demand returns on their investments. Banks are profit-driven. Jeanne D’Arc, and other credit unions, are service-driven. We’re not here to generate a profit, but to provide a service to our members. Any “earnings” are turned back to you, the member/owner, in the form of better rates and lower fees.

We offer a unique membership program called Member Perks, which helps you save money on products and services every day.

You are eligible for business membership if you meet the following requirements:

• Any business (fraternal organization, voluntary association, sole proprietorship, partnership, limited partnership, corporation, limited liability company or limited liability partnership), composed principally of individuals who are themselves eligible for consumer membership at Jeanne D’Arc Credit Union, may become a business member.
• Membership is limited to those individuals who live, work, or attend school in Middlesex or Essex counties, the cities or towns of Fitchburg, Leominster, Harvard, Lunenburg, or Lancaster, or the New Hampshire counties of Hillsborough or Rockingham and their immediate families.
• Be able to describe their business activities and provide certain supporting documentation.
• A $5.00 Membership Account is required.

You can order checks by logging into Online Banking or our Mobile Banking App and clicking on Check Services widget. From there, click on the tab Reorder Checks.

Or you can visit one of our branches and speak with a Member Service Representative who can order them for you.

Jeanne D’Arc Credit Union ATMs are fee-free and unlimited. Other non-Jeanne D’Arc ATMs cost $1.50 per withdrawal.
