AOD Visa Purchase Alerts

The other topic was closed.

@Anonymous I don't know if this will suffice.

You can check eligibility here at the main site. https://usa.visa.com/pay-with-visa/featured-technologies/purchase-alerts.html

Here is the direct link https://purchasealerts.visa.com/vca-web/check

This is the same place I set up my Alliant Visa alerts.

I don't have my AOD card yet so I cannot add it without the CVV but I was able to check the first 9 numbers and it looks like I can add it.

These alerts work fine for my Alliant CU Visa.

Thank you for the link.

It says that the card is eligible but then it errors when I get to the actual registration process and says it can't be processed at this time. :/

I will just have to keep trying.

Well, there goes that idea.

I am sorry. I must have missed that.

Please close this thread also.

As most of us do not have our cards.

Oh no, I hadn't even thought to try it so I appreciate the link. Most of my cards are MasterCard so I totally spaced that this site even existed. Hopefully it's just a temporary glitch. I added pics to the post I made.

@Remedios

Or technically was I too late to the conversation...

I've been known to be slow when I am drinking..

Good, I hate cards that don't alert on transactions. I usually set my transactions to 0 or as low as they go. I watch everything like a hawk because I have had my information stolen.

It's another reason why I only use credit cards and rarely my debit card. I use plastiq or billpay for everything else.

I love that Sam's club and Discover allow for money over on the regular APR.

It figures that mine still won't let me add it. It says to try again later. >_<

@Anonymous

Did you try a different email address?

It's not the email address. I created my Purchase Alerts account just to add this card. I fired off an email to the VPA support team asking them for assistance. I have tried my name both with and without the suffix as well as my apartment on line 1, line 2, or not listed at all. The card number, expiration, and CVV are correct and the card is unlocked.

VISA emailed me back asking for more info about a half hour ago and I decided to try it on my laptop before sending them all of the troubleshooting info they were asking for and it worked. Either it was a WebKit issue since it affected both Safari and Chrome or it was some issue with their servers and I was just unlucky but I'm registered and set for both email and text alerts. Thanks again @JamP for posting this!

I added mine today without issue.

It will be nice when the app enables alerts too.

I set mine up, made a purchase, alerted immediately

I found the alerts page on the AOD desktop website. When logged in, click "Smart Money." The budgeting portal is not super useful, but it gives you a new row of options, one is "Alerts." Again, there aren't many options, but I was able to set text alerts for any transaction over $1. Haven't tested if it actually works yet.

I would have done the visa alerts, but my Abound CC couldn't be added. Didn't want to make a new account for just one card, so I'm glad I found this! Abound has the same thing as AOD under their P.A.M. section.
