Did you know that MCU offers “Account Alerts” that automatically notify you by text message* or email when activity occurs within your MCU account? Alerts can be sent to notify you when an electronic deposit (like your paycheck) is received or your balance goes below or over a specific dollar amount.

Account Alerts can be sent to any iPhone, Blackberry, Android, Smartphone, Cell Phone or Email account.

Setting up a Direct Deposit Account Alert to automatically notify you by text message or email that your paycheck or any other electronic deposit has been received in your MCU account is a simple 5 Step process:

  1. Login to Online Banking
  2. Click on “Account Alerts” in the left navigation menu
  3. Go to the “Email Setup” tab and enter the email address or cell phone number you want the alert sent to and click “Submit”. You can enter up to five email addresses or cell phone numbers.
  4. Go to the “Add Alert” tab, select “Electronic Deposit” from the drop down list and click “Submit”
  5. Select the account you want to receive alerts about and the cell phone number or email address you want the alert sent to and click “Submit”
