hi welcome back guys so today on this
video we are talking about Chase Bank
and more specifically we're going to
talk about how to lock your Chase debit
card on the chase mobile app so let's go
ahead and talk about this if you're not
familiar with Chase it is one of the
largest banking institutions in the u.s.
I'm not sure if they are international
but I believe they are if you happen to
know be sure to leave a comment below
but I Bank with Chase I bank with them
for a very long time and I do have their
app if you don't have their app be sure
to check the video description I'll try
to leave a link there on how to set up
your Chase mobile banking app but I'm
gonna go and open my app now alright I
went ahead and opened up the chase
mobile banking app and again what we're
gonna talk about is how to lock your
Chase debit card why would you want to
do that well there's a couple of
different reasons why you would want to
lock your Chase debit card if you're
anything like me you may have lost your
debit card at one point or another but
not sure if it was stolen or lost and
it's kind of annoying when you report
your debit card lost or stolen they
cancel your card you have to change all
of the automatic payments that are
associated with it only to find out that
it's in your sock drawer or in your old
pair of pants or something like that and
there's no way to keep that credit card
number once the bank has cancelled that
card number so the nice thing about
locking in the card is it just
temporarily locks the card in that way
it gives you a chance to try to find it
later on if you're not able to find it
then you can report it lost or stolen
and have chase reissue a different card
number so that's one reason why you
might want to lock your debit card
another reason why is if you happen to
leave your debit card somewhere and
you're going to pick it up while it's
out of your possession you can go ahead
and lock the card and that way no one
uses it in the meantime until you're
able to pick it up and lastly one thing
you can do is you can lock and unlock
the card as many times as you would like
so as an added security precaution what
you can do is lock your debit card until
you're about to use it then unlock it so
for example if you're gonna be traveling
or going on a trip you can just keep the
card blocked and then just unlock it
each time if you're going to do that
make sure that you're going to have
Wi-Fi access because you do need to be
able to access the
to be able to lock it so let's go ahead
and go through these steps first off you
want to go ahead and log into your Chase
mobile app I'm gonna go and do that off
screen you'll need to enter your
username and password unless you have
your thumbprint registered or your face
ID registered with Chase so let me go
ahead and login now alright I went ahead
and logged into my Chase mobile banking
app and next what you want to do to find
your debit card is go ahead and click on
your account so that's usually going to
be your checking account if you have
multiple checking accounts be sure you
choose the checking account that you
want to lock the debit card I only have
one so I'm gonna go ahead and click on
the balance of the checking account off
screen and that way it opens up my
account all right I went ahead and
opened up my checking account and as you
can see I here at the top is my checking
account you can check to make sure it is
the correct checking account and to find
the place to lock and unlock your card
it's pretty easy what you want to do is
scroll down past the balance and
transactions and you're gonna look for
this right here it says account services
and again it's not really clear and easy
but just be sure to scroll down through
the balances down through the
transactions and then this little
section will pop up once you're in this
section then it's pretty easy you see a
right here lock and unlock card all you
do is just click on that little icon to
lock or unlock your Chase debit card all
right I went ahead and clicked on the
icon and this screen pops up so as you
can see the description from Chase says
you can lock your card instantly to
block new purchases and ATM withdrawals
including those from your digital wallet
fees credits and recurring transaction
or installment payments like gym
memberships or TV subscriptions won't be
affected so if you have recurring
monthly transactions that bill on to the
debit card they will still go through
that doesn't affect it but it does
affect any kind of new transaction so
for example if someone has your debit
card and they swipe it at a gas station
it's not going to work if you activate
this lock feature and also right here
you can see it says when you find your
card you can unlock it and use it right
away with this little feature so let me
go ahead and show you how it works
pretty easy you can just click on it and
lock it alright as you can see it is now
locked it took about 2 to 3 seconds for
that to engage and then this little icon
pops
you've locked your card now if you want
to unlock it it's basically the same
thing you just click on it and now it
says unlocked now it looks like a slide
feature but it's actually not what you
want to do is be sure to click on it and
then that's what's gonna change it not
sliding it all right so I went ahead and
unlocked my card now I'm gonna leave it
unlocked because I have the debit card
in my position but I wanted to show you
how to do that also be aware that when
you lock and unlock your card you are
going to receive a notification or an
email from Chase letting you know the
change on the account so let me go and
switch over to that email now all right
so here is the email that you receive
when your card is locked so once you
click that icon and lock your debit card
through the chase mobile app you will
get this email notifying you that the
account has been long you also receive a
notification when the card is unlocked
let me switch over to that email now all
right so here is the email that you'll
receive from Chase once you unlock your
card it is notifying you that the card
is now ready to use so again it's pretty
easy just be aware that you will receive
this for each time that you lock and
each time that you unlock so there you
have it that is how you lock and unlock
your debit card through the chase mobile
banking app hopefully you found the
video useful if so click thumbs up and I
hope to see on the next video
thanks again for watching
