Push Alerts*

Push alerts automatically notify members of specific events on their mobile device*—like when your account balance has reached a specified level or if your login password has been changed—even when you are not using the VyStar Mobile Banking App. When your device receives a push notification, VyStar Credit Union’s icon and a message appear in the status bar for Android devices and in the Notifications window on Apple devices.
