Visa Debit Card Monitoring
MidFirst Bank utilizes a series of risk monitoring tools to combat the growing risk of debit card fraud. Debit card authorizations are passed through a series of rules to assess the risk potential of a transaction before it is approved allowing certain transactions to be declined based on the likelihood of fraud. These risk monitoring tools will typically target risky foreign transactions, foreign internet transactions and domestic transactions outside of MidFirst Bank's market area. If you are traveling (either domestically or internationally), it is important that you notify us so we can provide you with optimal usage of your card while you are out of town. If you are planning to travel, please contact us at 888.MIDFIRST (643-3477).
