Frequently Asked Questions

Can I use my Citadel Mastercard with Apple Pay?

Yes, all Citadel Credit Cards are eligible for Apple Pay in addition to several other Digital Wallet Products. Learn more about setting up your card with our Digital Wallet partners.

Do all Citadel Credit Cards come with the EMV chip?
Yes, Citadel is committed to the security of your Credit Card transactions. A chip transaction adds another layer of security to cards by requiring the chip to produce a single-use code to validate the transaction, further protecting your card from unauthorized use. This process makes your chip card information more difficult to steal and therefore makes your chip card more difficult to counterfeit.
What should I do if my card gets lost or stolen?

You can report all debit and credit cards lost or stolen by accessing the 'Card Services' menu from the account history. You may also request a new card to be sent automatically.

If you have requested a new card to be issued, you will receive within 7-10 business days. If you don't have access to Online & Mobile Banking, Contact Citadel immediately to report your card lost or stolen at (800) 666-0191.

How can I avoid fraud on my debit or credit card?

A few preventative measures you can take:

  • Treat your debit and credit cards like cash and always keep them in a safe place
  • Keep your PIN a secret and do not share it with anyone
  • Memorize your PIN and never write it on your card, store it with your card, or let someone else enter it for you
  • For added security, Citadel encourages debit card users to sign for safety and choose “credit” as their preferred transaction method when asked “debit or credit” at the check-out counter, eliminating any possibility of someone obtaining your PIN as you enter it
  • Do not disclose your PIN over the telephone, email or Internet; no one needs to know your PIN, not even your financial institution
  • Report a lost or stolen card immediately to reduce the chance that it will be used improperly and limit your potential liability for unauthorized transactions
  • Review your account statements monthly and report any errors (including transactions you believe may be unauthorized) right away
