We work with our trusted partner, Visa® Falcon Fraud Prevention Services, to monitor fraud trends and detect fraudulent transactions on your credit card accounts 24/7.

Our partner, Falcon, will call you in the event of a suspicious transaction. Falcon will make you aware that the call is being placed on behalf of Merchants Bank. If you cannot be reached after the first call, the Merchants Bank Credit Card Department will place a follow up call.

When our partner calls you, they will ask you for some identifying information - such as the last four digits of your Social Security Number. They will never ask you for your full number. If you are uncomfortable and don't want to speak with our partner, please call the Merchants Bank Credit Card Department directly at (833) 794-0032 and verify the transaction or let us know that you did not make the purchase in question.

Yes. It’s important for you to contact Merchants before you leave to ensure the best service while you are out of town. If you make purchases in a state or country where you don't normally use your Merchants Bank debit or credit card, we may think these transactions are fraudulent unless we know otherwise. 

When contacting the Bank regarding your travel plans, we will ask for the following information:

  • Dates of your trip(s)
  • Exact travel locations
  • How we can contact you while you’re gone

If you have a Merchants Bank Debit Card or Credit Card - Please call us at (833) 794-0032 and ask to speak to a Customer Service Representative about your travel plans.

We strongly recommend that you carry more than one form of payment during your trip. Interruptions within any card network are always a very real possibility. Carrying multiple forms of payment reduces frustrations when trying to complete a needed purchase.
