The easiest way to get a new debit card is to come into your local branch. We can print you a card and you can create your personal identification number (PIN) in the branch so the card is ready-to-use before you leave.

You can find your full account number on your new account documentation, as well as on the bottom of your checks.

In online and mobile banking, you will only see the last 4 digits of your account number for security.
