Debit cards look just like credit cards, but have some important differences. A debit card is linked directly to your checking account, so when you make a purchase with it, that amount is deducted immediately from your account. You’re not charged interest, or in most cases, fees. 

A 7 17 Credit Union Debit Card can help you manage your financial goals, and can be used at ATMs and retailers throughout the country. They are available with any 7 17 Credit Union account. 

A credit card is treated more like a loan, and can include fees for late payments.  They can offer peace of mind when emergencies strike and offer fraud protection that debit cards cannot.

Members can connect their 7 17 Visa^® Debit or Credit Card to Google Pay^™, Samsung Pay or Apple Pay^™  and you can make purchases simply by holding your phone to the terminal. Learn more.
