We’re always increasing our efforts to make managing your finances easier and safer. One simple tool to help you stay on top of your accounts is turning on push notifications in your IHMVCU mobile banking app.

What are push notifications?
They're those handy pop-up messages or alerts that show up directly on your device, even when the app isn’t open. You’ll see them on your lock screen or at the top of your phone or tablet.

What kind of notifications will IHMVCU send?
Don’t worry, we won’t bombard you with constant alerts! You’ll only get push notifications for important stuff like online or mobile banking outages, debit/credit issues, and extra protection against fraud. If fraudsters try to scam you with fake messages or links, we’ll send you a heads-up so you can stay safe and secure.

Enabling push notifications is an easy way to stay informed and keep your finances in check!
