eAlerts are emails sent to you to notify you of certain transactions or events happening on your account.
Each eAlert can be sent to multiple email or cellular phone addresses within minutes of the actual transaction.
Click the "Add eAlert" image to begin. Choose the type of eAlert you would like to set up from the dropdown.
Email Addresses, Cellular Phone Addresses, Notification Times, Detail Level, and Nickname can all be assigned default values by defining your account's Default eAlert Settings. These default values will be pre-filled each time you add a new eAlert to your account, making the process even quicker and easier.
Once you define your Default eAlert Settings, any future eAlerts you add will have the default values you specify pre-filled wherever they are appropriate. You can overwrite these defaults on any eAlert at the time of addition if you'd like.
Click the "Edit" image:
This can be found next to the eAlert you would like to change. This will bring up a form that will allow you to edit all of the details for this eAlert. Click the "Continue" button once you have completed your changes.
You can change your Default eAlert Settings at any time just like any other eAlert. Any changes made will not be automatically applied to eAlerts already defined on your account. You do have the option to overwrite all of your existing eAlerts with your new Default Settings - you just need to check the "Please overwrite all my existing eAlerts with these Defaults" box when editing your Default Settings.
The changes will not be applied to any of your existing eAlerts automatically. You do have the option to overwrite all of your existing eAlerts with your new Default Settings - you just need to check the "Please overwrite all my existing eAlerts with these Defaults" box when editing your Default Settings.

Yes. You must know the email address of your cellular phone and the standard text messaging charges from your service provider will apply. Due to message length, you may receive an abbreviated version of a "Moderate" or "Specific" detail level eAlert when it is being sent to a cellular phone.
On most eAlert setup screens there are two fields called "Send eAlerts From" and "Send eAlerts Until". Enter the time range you would like your eAlerts to be sent. If an eAlert is triggered outside of your chosen time range, your eAlert will be sent the following day. The exception to this is the Daily Balance eAlert. For this eAlert type you need to choose a "Notify Me At" time to be notified once a day. If you would like to receive all of your eAlerts at a specific time every day, simply set "Send eAlerts From" and "Send eAlerts Until" to the same time, making sure to choose a time during normal business hours.
In the case of the Daily Balance eAlert, you will need to choose a single time during normal business hours to be notified of your balance(s). If you would like to be notified of your balances multiple times a day, then you can set up multiple Daily Balance eAlerts.
