Member Notice: We are aware of an issue affecting some members who are unable to use their Visa Debit Cards at Walmart and/or Sam’s Club. The issue appears to be isolated to PIN transactions. If you bypass the PIN option, the transaction should go through. If you experience any problems with this, the store associate should be able to assist you with bypassing the PIN. The network has identified the problem, but the resolution requires a system update. We apologize for any inconvenience and appreciate your patience as we work to resolve the matter.

Visa Chip Cards

Count on enhanced fraud protection with chip technology

Check out with ease. Follow the simple steps below to pay at a chip-activated terminal.

Enjoy global acceptance. More merchants are accepting chip transactions every day. Whether you check out using chip technology or swipe your card, you can pay wherever Visa Debit Cards are accepted.
