Our Debit Card is also compatible with Google Pay and Apple Pay!
a chip for extra security
Your Debit Card has a chip on the front of it, which looks like a small metallic square. This chip is virtually impossible to duplicate, which means attempts by a fraudster to create and use counterfeit cards will be much harder, providing you with a higher level of security.
using your debit card
When you are ready to checkout in a store, insert your card into the card reader, with the chip going into the reader first and facing up. Follow the instructions on the screen. You must leave the card in the reader until the transaction is complete or when the card reader instructs you to remove it. If the card reader doesn’t have a spot to insert your card, not to worry, you can always swipe your card using the magnetic stripe on the back.
mobile wallets
Enjoy using your Champlain National Bank Debit Card with Google Pay and Apple Pay! Adding your Champlain National Bank Debit Card to these Mobile Wallets allows you to use your debit card as you’ve done in the past, just without needing the actual plastic card on hand. All you need to pay is your phone! Paying in stores, within apps, or online has never been easier, safer, or more private.

card management
Control how, when, and where your Champlain National Bank Debit Card gets used right from Online Banking. Our powerful Card Management tool gives you advanced card controls that allow you to: deactivate your card and report to us that it has been lost or stolen, get instant alerts when your card is used, set dollar limits to keep spending in check, and prevent transactions that don’t match your settings.
monitoring your account
Countries that use chip cards have seen a huge decline in counterfeit card fraud. However, no single technology will prevent fraud. Chips are only part of the greater effort being made by banks to combat thieves. Card and payment information can still be stolen and used to make purchases online and over the phone. That’s why it is so important for you to monitor your bank account and to let us know as soon as you notice a transaction you didn’t make.
fraud alert communication
Your account is continuously being monitored for unusual activity, and we will contact you if we detect a change in your normal debit card usage.
When potential debit card fraud is detected, you'll receive an automated text notification with the option to reply with “V” for Valid or “F” for Fraud. If no response is received from you after five minutes, you'll receive an email. If you don’t respond to the email, after five minutes you'll receive a phone call, again asking you to confirm or deny if the transaction is fraudulent. If you don't respond to your cell phone, after eight hours you'll receive a phone call to the work phone number we have on file for you.
Remember: our messages will never ask for your PIN, account number, or other personal information. It’s also very important to keep all your contact information up to date with us.
safe and secure
Using your Champlain National Bank Debit Card is one of the safest ways you can pay because you’re protected if fraudulent charges are made with a lost or stolen card with Mastercard® Zero Liability Protection. The Electronic Funds Transfers brochure you received with your debit card and at account opening details your liability for any unauthorized transfers. The most important thing you can do is to let us know immediately if your debit card is ever lost or stolen.
