All current cardholders will receive replacement chip-enabled debit cards in mid-2016. ***Traveling and need your replacement card sooner? Contact us (please limit your new card request to foreign travel only). All current cardholders will receive a chip-enabled replacement card. WHAT DO I NEED TO DO TO PREPARE? Ensure your mailing address is updated in your BECU Online Banking account, then keep an eye out for BECU mail.

Your new card number and/or expiration date and security number may have changed. Be sure to update any recurring payment information, e.g.: online bills tied to your previous card, card information on file with online merchants, or information stored in a digital wallet (like Apple Pay™). HOW DO I KNOW WHEN TO INSERT OR SWIPE MY CARD? If the merchant has an EMV terminal and accepts chip cards, you will be prompted to insert the card in a slot. If not, swipe the old-fashioned way. Some merchants have the readers but aren't yet set up for the technology; when in doubt, ask the sales clerk. DO I NEED A PIN TO COMPLETE MY PURCHASE? It depends on the merchant.

Helpful reminder: It's always a good idea to notify BECU (simply refer to the number on the back of your card) when traveling, so we know to not flag international purchases as fraud! ARE THERE ANY SITUATIONS WHERE I COULD EXPERIENCE ISSUES USING MY CHIP CARD? Generally, no. You may run into problems at unattended terminals that require a PIN or international terminals that do not accept U.S. Issued debit cards – those purchases may appear as “Transaction Cancelled.” Seek assistance when possible, and don't forget you can always call BECU!
