Tell me, how does the Corus Bank Check Card work?

It works just like a regular ATM card and you can use it like a check to pay for purchases! You use it with your Personal Identification Number (PIN) to get cash at ATMs. It works like a check at stores, restaurants, and other MasterCard® merchants. Just present the card to the cashier, sign the receipt, and your purchase will be deducted right from your checking account. If you use your card to place a phone order, just give your card number and expiration date to the catalog or ticket order representative.

So when I shop with it, I follow the same steps as when I use a credit card, right?

Right! Your Corus Bank Check Card will be accepted by merchants just like any MasterCard credit card. But it's not a credit card, because purchases are deducted from your checking account--which means you don't pay interest charges on the things you buy.

Can I use my Corus Bank Check Card anywhere?

You can use your new Corus Bank Check Card to get cash at ATMs wherever you see the logos that are on the back of your card. Now you can also use it to shop wherever you see the MasterCard logo.

Will my Corus Bank Check Card purchases appear on my monthly checking account statement?

Yes! If you shop with a Corus Bank Check Card, the amount, date, and even the name of the place where you used it will all appear on your statement along with the checks you write and your ATM transactions. Having all of your transactions on one statement helps you keep better track of your spending.

Can I still use my checks when I shop?

That's completely up to you. Although, once you see how much more convenient it is to shop with your Corus Bank Check Card, you will probably use checks less and less.

What should I do with my old ATM card?
