Debit Cards

How does the DisburseMINT™ feature benefit our customers?

With DisburseMINT™, The MINT's debit card holders can use their debit card at any ATM, and the ATM surcharges will be automatically reimbursed.

Do I need to notify the bank before I travel internationally?

Yes. If you are traveling internationally, it is advisable to call the bank directly to notify us of your travel plans so your card can be flagged as such. Informing us of your travel plans alerts us to debit card activity that might otherwise appear as suspicious or fraudulent.

In addition, if you utilize our featured app SecurLOCK® and store your debit card within the app, you can 'freeze' the card if you do not intend to use it overseas.

Will my debit card work at all ATMs?

Yes. Your card will work at both chip-enabled ATMs and even at ATMs where only magnetic stripe transactions are accepted.

Are chip cards secure?

Yes. Chip technology is already the security standard in many countries around the world. When purchases are made using the card at chip-enabled terminals, the transaction is more secure because of a unique process that is used to determine if the card is authentic. This makes the card more difficult to counterfeit or copy.

Remember, if you notice any suspicious card activity on your account, notify us immediately by calling the number on the back of your card.

What do I do when my card expires?

Shortly before your card expires, you will receive a replacement card in the mail. The card number and PIN will remain the same. The expiration date and security code will change; therefore, you should update merchants that automatically debit your account using your card. Once the new card has been activated, please destroy your old card.

How can I change the PIN on my debit card?

To change your current debit card PIN, call 1-866-633-5293 using your phone number on file with the Bank and follow the voice response prompts. You will be prompted to enter your existing PIN before a new PIN can be chosen. If you experience a problem while changing your PIN, please contact the Bank directly.

Remember that a secure PIN helps protect you from unnecessary losses. Use a PIN that only you would know. Do not use a number that can be determined using information found in your wallet, and never disclose your PIN to anyone.

How can I order a debit card if my current card is damaged?

Please contact the Bank at 281-359-6468 to have your damaged card replaced.

We use cookies when you register the first time, when you sign in with your username and password, and when you tell us information about yourself such as your address.

What is Encryption?

Encryption technology (SSL) scrambles information as it passes across the Internet. SSL stands for Secure Socket Layer, a global standard security technology that enables encrypted communication between a web browser and a web server. It is utilized by most online businesses and individuals to decrease the risk of sensitive information (e.g., credit card numbers, usernames, passwords, emails, etc.) from being stolen or tampered with by hackers and identity thieves. In essence, SSL allows for a private "conversation" just between the two intended parties.

To create this secure connection, an SSL certificate (also referred to as a "digital certificate") is installed on a web server and serves two functions:

  • It authenticates the identity of the website (this guarantees visitors that they're not on a bogus site)
  • It encrypts the data that's being transmitted.

How does The MINT National Bank protect my privacy?

Keeping your financial and personal information secure and confidential remains one of our top priorities. We ensure your privacy and security by offering technology, services, and comprehensive internal procedures to help protect you. However, there are also precautions you can take to keep your personal information secure. Visit the Security section of our website for additional information.

What is identity theft?

Identity theft occurs when someone wrongfully obtains and uses your personal information in some way that involves fraud or deception. If you believe you have been a victim of identity theft or want to learn more, there are several links posted in the Security section of our website where you can go for more information.
