Features that help protect every M&T Card

Get card security alerts

Sign up to receive alerts via text, email or push notification when transactions happen, a card PIN is changed or other suspicious activity occurs

M&T Bank Alerts are available for your M&T Card through M&T Online Banking. Suspicious activity alerts notify customers of certain potentially fraudulent activity on their M&T Card. Alerts are designed to be a helpful account management tool, but they do not identify all potential fraudulent activity and are not a substitute for security and fraud precautions including, but not limited to, verifying statements and being aware of your outstanding payments and available balance. For your protection, “suspicious activity” and “card PIN change” email alerts cannot be disabled. M&T Bank is not liable for any losses customers may incur due to an alert not being delivered. Your mobile carrier's text messaging and data charges may apply.

Lock & unlock your card

Have the ability to temporarily lock your card when you need to and unlock it again when you're ready. 

Report lost or stolen card

If you lost your card or are experiencing fraud on your account, log in to easily disable your card and M&T will issue a new one. 

Defend Against Fraud

Use your cards with confidence knowing M&T Assurance helps detect, prevent and resolve fraud.
