ATMs
Bill Pay
- Sign into digital banking.
- Click on the "Bill Pay" link in the menu.
- Accept the disclosures and proceed
Yes, however, any payment changes or cancellations must be received in Bill Pay before the payment begins processing.
Yes! Simply click the AutoPay link under individual payees to prevent missed payments.
- AutoPay: You can set up automatic payments according to your preferred schedule (weekly, monthly, semi-monthly, etc). You can change or cancel AutoPay at any time.
- AutoPay for eBills: You can set up some eBills to be paid automatically according to options you select. You can change or cancel AutoPay for eBills at any time.
Account history for Bill Pay transactions will be stored and available for 84 months, or 7 years. You can find this information under the Activity tab.
If the bill is paid electronically, Bill Pay will re-attempt an electronic payment within 24 business hours if the first attempt results in non-sufficient funds (NSF). If a bill is paid by paper check, the check will be returned as non-sufficient funds (NSF). The payee’s bank may resubmit the check for payment. Each time an item is presented for payment and funds are not available, a NSF fee will be charged to your account.
Card Management
To notify us of your travel plans, you can set up a travel notice in digital banking by selecting Travel Notice from the menu. You can select the destination you're traveling to and the duration of your trip.
Members who apply for and receive a Wings Member Rewards Visa® Signature Credit card will be automatically enrolled in Member Rewards.
Locking your card will prevent it from being used for any transactions, including ATM deposits and withdrawals, preauthorized autopayments, and in-store and online purchases.
Certificates
Yes, depending on the term length of your Certificate, the following penalties will apply:
- Term less than 24 months = Loss of amount equivalent to 6 months’ dividends (180 days)
- Term 24 months or greater = Loss of amount equivalent 2 years’ dividends (730 days)
Yes.
Members will have a grace period of 10 calendar days after the maturity date to withdraw the funds in the account without being charged an early withdrawal penalty.
Checking Accounts
Yes, you can change your checking account to the High-Yield Checking account. Your cards and account numbers will remain the same.
You can open an account online by clicking the links below or at one of our branch locations.
Open an Everyday Checking account
Open a High-Yield Checking account
Open a Student Spend Checking account
Dividends are paid monthly.
Dividends are calculated based on the average daily balance in the account. If requirements are met, a higher rate will be paid for the first $25,000 and a lower rate will be paid for any amounts over $25,000.
The average daily balance is calculated by adding the balance in the account for each day of the period and dividing that figure by the number of days in the period.
High-Yield Checking accounts are not eligible for Wings Members Rewards. If you currently have a First Class Checking account and want to change it to a High-Yield Checking account, you need to use your points before making the change.
This applies to members who use rewards for the debit card only. Reward points will not be affected if you also have a Wings Member Rewards Visa credit card.
Yes, you may setup Overdraft Protection with a Savings account or Line of Credit.
To earn the higher dividend rate, members must meet the following requirements:
- Must be enrolled in eDocuments
- Must have ACH direct deposit(s) totaling over $300 in the 34 calendar days preceding the last day of the month
- Must have 15 net PIN or signature point-of-sale debit card transactions over $5 in the 34 calendar days preceding the last business day of the month. The net is calculated by counting the number of PIN and signature point-of-sale debit purchase transactions over $5 and subtracting any PIN or signature point-of-sale debit return transactions processed during that period.
A transaction is a PIN or signature point-of-sale purchase of over $5 in the 34 calendar days preceding the last business day of the month.
The net is calculated by counting the number of PIN and signature point-of-sale debit purchase transactions over $5 and subtracting any PIN or signature point-of-sale debit return transactions processed during that period.
Contactless Cards
Be sure that only one contactless device (say, your contactless card or mobile-payment-enabled phone) is near the terminal at one time.
Most contactless payments, including contactless Visa cards, Google Pay and Apple Pay, use the same NFC (Near Field Communication) technology.
Samsung Pay, however, works with both NFC technology and MST (Magnetic Secure Transition) technology, which can be used anywhere you can swipe.
You can still pay by inserting or swiping your card as usual.
All new and reissued cards come contactless enabled.
Credit and Debit Card Fraud Alerts
No, you are automatically signed up for Automated Fraud Alerts with a Wings Visa® Credit or Debit Card.
Fraud Alerts are an innovative technology that allows you to respond quickly to digital voice messages, SMS text messages and/or emails to confirm the validity of suspicious transactions.
Automated Fraud Alerts follow the standard guidelines for Fraud Detection Services. Fraud Alerts are attempted between the hours of 8am and 9pm in the member’s time zone. Inbound calls are accepted 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.
The SMS texts for fraud alerts will come from 91937.
The blocking of your card number depends on transaction(s) in question. Automated Fraud Alerts is simply another communication channel and it does not change the process already in place with Fraud Detection services today.
Credit Cards
Yes, Wings offers two different rewards cards depending on your needs:
The Wings Member Rewards Visa Signature® Card for when you want premier card benefits, with flexible reward options and a low, variable rate:
- 2 points for every $1 spent and 10,000 bonus points after spending $1,000 within the first 90 days.

Yes, there is a cash advance fee of $10 or 3% of the cash advance amount (whichever is greater).
Credit Score
Credit score reports will be updated on a quarterly basis, in March, June, September and December.
No. A change in your credit score will not impact existing credit accounts. However, it could influence the rates you are offered on future applications for credit.
For more information about Reason Codes, please visit www.reasoncode.org/reasoncode101/.
Credit scoring models weigh many different factors, including the mix of types of accounts, the number of accounts you have and the length of time you've had them.
You will need to enroll in VantageScore Credit Reporting to see your credit score in Wings' digital banking. To enroll, find the VantageScore tile on your dashboard in digital banking, then agree to the disclosure. Once you have enrolled, you will see your credit score on your account dashboard.
It's important to recognize that the various scoring models use slightly different criteria to determine your credit score. Newer models like VantageScore 4.0 are designed on the most recent timeframe and represent current consumer and lending practices. More data is incorporated to give a more complete picture of your credit standing. Also:
- Lenders use a variety of third-party models, as well as customized models. Monitor your score, but realize that it may not be the same model or score used on a future loan application.
- If your score declined to an extent that you think lenders will offer you poorer terms and higher rates:
- Examine the reason codes provided with your score to understand which behaviors are causing the decline.
- Consider using a credit monitoring tool that provides recommendations for improving your score.
- Check your credit reports for accuracy.
No. The reports pulled for this are called “soft” inquiries. Soft inquiries are all credit inquiries where your credit is NOT being reviewed by a prospective lender.
Credit Unions
A Credit Union is a not-for-profit, member-owned and member-operated financial cooperative. We offer members comprehensive financial services at very competitive rates and terms. And, we do it with the personal attention our members deserve.
Unlike banks, credit unions are member-owned financial cooperatives; so when you join Wings Financial Credit Union, your initial $5 deposit to open a Share Savings account establishes your membership and makes you a part-owner.
Since there are no outside bank stockholders to satisfy, Wings passes on the savings to you in the form of lower mortgage and loan rates, fewer service fees and higher yields on savings and checking.
Custodial Share Savings Accounts
Yes, Custodial Share Savings accounts earn quarterly dividends.
A parent or guardian opening a Custodial Share Savings account will need to provide the minor child's Social Security Number or Taxpayer Identification Number.
Once the child reaches majority age, it is the responsibility of the custodian to close the account and transfer funds to the child.
Either the minor child or custodian may make deposits, but only the custodian may withdraw funds.
Debit Cards
Yes, you may use your Wings Visa® Debit Card, but we cannot guarantee that it will work for every transaction, as international merchants use varying forms of payment acceptance.
Our recommendation would be to use our Wings Member Rewards Visa Signature® Credit Card or the Wings Member Cash Rewards Visa Signature Credit Card. These cards comes with built-in chip technology allowing for enhanced fraud protection and more flexibility while travelling internationally, as well as no foreign transaction fees
To change your PIN, login to CU Online and select "Manage My Cards". visit one of our convenient branch locations, or change it at any Wings ATM.
(Please note that in order to change your PIN at an ATM, it must be a Wings ATM.)
Your PIN acts a signature when you use your debit card for point of sale transactions and to withdraw cash from an ATM.
For security reasons, you should keep your PIN number to yourself, when the number is used we think that you made the transaction.
If you forgot your PIN you can select a new PIN with "Manage My Cards" in CU Online or by visiting any branch location (photo ID required for security security purposes).
Call Member Services at 1 800 692-2274 to have one ordered for you.
We have a vast ATM network called the STAR, CO-OP, Allpoint/Cardtronics that will allow you to withdraw funds without being charged a fee all over the country!
Easily find an ATM within our surcharge-free ATM network - over 80,000 nationwide!

Down payment requirements may vary by loan type. Wings offers more flexible options for first-time homebuyers. Learn more about programs for first-time homebuyers here.
An escrow account is a common feature of a mortgage loan. An escrow account makes it easier to pay necessary expenses on your property – like taxes and insurance – by incorporating them into your monthly mortgage payment, rather than paying them in lump sums.
PMI is typically required if your down payment is less than 20% of the home's value. It is designed to protect the lender in case you stop making payments on your loan.
Home Equity Line of Credit

Home Improvement Loan
No, there are no closing costs on a Home Improvement Loan.
You can borrow up to $50,000 with a Home Improvement Loan.

No, using a PTM is the same as going to a teller window inside a branch. There are no additional fees.
PTMs can disperse cash in 1s, 5s, 20s, 50s or 100s. ATMs will only disperse in 5s, 20s, 50s or 100s.
The PTM has a camera for face-to-face transactions, a touch screen so members can enter information, a scanner to scan ID, audio via handset, earbud or speaker, receipt printer, cash and check acceptors, and it functions as a regular ATM when Personal Tellers are not available.
A Personal Teller Machine looks like an ATM, but a member can have real-time, face-to-face conversation with a Wings Personal Teller. A video camera on each side allows the member to interact with the Personal Teller located at our corporate offices. Sound is carried through speakers, a handset, or an optional headphone jack on the PTM.
Members can do just about every transaction they can do with a teller inside one of our branches. Members can make deposits, withdrawals, transfers, cash checks, make loan payments and more!
PTMs are unable to dispense change. If a check is cashed that includes change, the change will be deposited directly into the member’s account.
Wings is dedicated to putting technology to work to create a better banking experience for members. Expanding our service by adding Personal Teller Machines provides greater convenience, just as when we introduced Online Banking and Mobile Apps.

Wings Voice ID
Voice ID is a streamlined and secure way to receive service over the phone. However, if you prefer to opt out, you can do so at any time.
No, because it's not a recording. Voiceprints are a mathematical representation of the biometric and behavioral features of your voice; a series of numbers that would not allow a hacker to reconstruct your actual voice.
There's nothing specific you need to do. The next time you call Member Services at 1 800 692-2274, we'll create your voiceprint while we're assisting you.
Each member will have one voiceprint associated with their account profile. If you have a joint account (say with your spouse), you will each have your own voiceprint.
If for any reason we're unable to verify your identity through your voiceprint (for example, if there's background noise), we will verify you using alternative methods.
A voiceprint is a set of traits unique to your voice pattern, created from more than 100 physical and behavioral voice characteristics, including pitch, accent, and the shape/size of your vocal tract.
Generally, yes, the slight changes due to a cold or illness won't interfere with Voice ID. In more extreme instances, we will verify you using alternative methods until you feel better.
