and there are never any overdraft fees.

If I have bad credit can I still get a ONE VIP card?

required to obtain our card.

How old do you have to be to use the Card?


You must be 18 or older to successfully register a ONE VIP Visa Debit Card.

Are my deposits insured by the FDIC?


Chime bank accounts are insured up to the standard maximum deposit insurance
amount of $250,000 through our partner, Stride Bank, N.A., Members FDIC.

Are there any special types of transactions I should know about before I shop?
• Gas Stations - If you use your card at an automated fuel dispenser (i.e., pay at
the pump) it may result in a hold on your funds. To avoid this hold, you may
go into the gas station and pay the cashier for your purchase in advance, and
specify the exact dollar amount of gas you would like to purchase.
• Restaurants and Other Merchants - Restaurants, hair salons and some other
types of merchants may obtain an authorization on the card for an amount
greater than the total service bill to cover any gratuity that may be added. Be
sure that the balance on the card is sufficient to cover the cost of the bill plus
any anticipated gratuity. If the card is declined, asked the merchant to obtain
an authorization for an amount equal to or less than the balance on your
card. Pay the difference with another form of payment.
• Hotels - Hotels may put a hold on your card in the amount of your estimated
bill, which will make that amount unavailable for other purchases. The hold
may last from the time you check in to a few days after you check out. See the
Cardholder Agreement for more information about cancelling hotel
reservations or other authorizations on the Card.
• Auto Rentals - Auto rental establishments may require you to reserve your
car with a credit card. They may allow you to use your card for the final
payment. Please check with the establishment for their specific procedures.

What if my card is lost or stolen?


Immediately report the card lost or stolen by calling 866-620-1368. A new card will
be requested and the funds will be transferred to your new card. The new card will
arrive in approximately 7-10 business days.
