Configure custom balance alerts to match your spending patterns
Multiple Threshold Levels: Set different alerts at $50, $25, $10, and $5 to track balance depletion stages.
Transaction Alerts: Get notified for every purchase, not just low balance warnings, to track all spending.
Daily Balance Summary: Schedule daily or weekly balance reports sent at your preferred time.
Critical Balance Warning: Special urgent alert when balance drops below $5 to avoid declined transactions.
Optimal alert levels based on your typical spending patterns
Set at 25% of original amount. For a $200 card, alert at $50 to plan final purchases.
Set at $25 for average purchases. Enough for most transactions but signals careful spending needed.
Set at $5-10 for final warning. Time to use exact balance or combine with another payment method.
