TBK Bank Account Alerts — SMS, Email, and Push Notification Settings

TBK Bank account alerts deliver real-time notifications about balance changes, transactions, Bill Pay activity, wires, fraud events, and security changes. Configure alerts through online banking or the mobile app and choose any combination of SMS text, email, and mobile app push notifications per alert type. Fraud and security alerts fire automatically and cannot be disabled. Every other alert is fully customizable per account, per channel, per threshold.

Alerts complement the TBK Bank mobile app and online banking by pushing information to customers without requiring a login. A single push notification about a new debit card charge takes a second to review and approve or deny. Low-balance alerts sent in the morning prevent overdrafts before they happen. Wire transfer alerts confirm every outbound wire so unauthorized activity surfaces immediately. Contact customer service at +1-877-482-2265 for alert setup help.

Setting Up and Managing TBK Bank Account Alerts

Alerts live in Settings, Alerts inside both online banking and the mobile app — configure them once and every workflow syncs to your phone.

Channel Preferences

Pick any combination of SMS, email, and push per alert type. Push notifications require the TBK Bank mobile app installed with notifications permitted in device settings. SMS requires a confirmed U.S. mobile number. Email uses the address on file in online banking. Separate channels per alert lets you route noisy low-priority alerts to email and high-priority fraud alerts to push.

Thresholds and Rules

Set dollar thresholds for low balance, high balance, single transaction above amount, and running total above amount. Filter by transaction type (debit card, ACH, wire, deposit, Bill Pay) or merchant category (gas, restaurant, travel). Schedule daily summary alerts for 7:00 AM CT to start every day with the overnight balance and pending transactions.

TBK Bank Alert Categories

Every alert category supports multiple channels and trigger conditions. Fraud and security alerts always deliver regardless of other settings.

How Alerts Protect Accounts

Real-time alerts cut the gap between fraudulent activity and customer response from hours to seconds. One-tap confirm or deny from a push notification blocks further activity immediately.

Rapid Fraud Response

Push notifications include one-tap Confirm or Deny. Denying a transaction automatically freezes the debit card, initiates a dispute, and notifies fraud operations — no phone call required.

Login and Profile Alerts

New-device login alerts catch credential stuffing attempts. Password change and contact info change alerts stop account takeover by warning the legitimate customer even if an attacker bypasses login MFA.
