Upgrades

Online banking has been updated with a screen‑responsive design. For optimal viewing, each page now automatically adjusts to your computer or mobile device screen size.

While there were some changes to the overall look and color scheme, there were no changes made to the menu options and you will find all the same widgets and services on the online banking home page.

Industry leading Money Management allows you to view all of your financial accounts in one place; giving you the complete picture you need to make the best financial decisions for now and for the future.

Money Management is a complimentary service that can be accessed from online and mobile banking. You can even elect to receive alerts about your spending, payments or budgeting by email or text message. Here are just some of the ways you can use Money Management to stay informed about your finances:

• Your accounts at The Merrimack will automatically be added when you begin using Money Management, but you can also add any other investment, bank, credit and loan accounts you hold outside of The Merrimack that you have online access to.
• Set your own budget or let Money Management set a budget for you based on your normal spending pattern. Use the ‘Bubble Budgeting’ tool to quickly identify budget items that may need your attention based on their size and color.
• Categorize your expenses to see your spending trends. Money Management boasts the best auto categorization available with approximately 90% accuracy. You can also manually categorize items in an extensive list of categories to keep track of certain items, such as tax deductible expenses.
• View all of your loans in one place and learn how you can pay them off in less time or prioritize payoffs to pay less interest.
• Set savings, debt payoff and retirement goals and visually track your progress.
• Track and analyze your net worth.

• External Transfers and Popmoney® give you the flexibility to move and manage your money in the manner that best meets your needs.

Use Popmoney® (Person to Person) payments to send funds to anyone you know. The recipient will receive an email or text message with instructions for depositing the funds to their account.

We’re excited to introduce a new way to pay with your Merrimack debit card: mobile wallet! You’ll no longer need to fumble through your wallet for your debit card, this new service allows you to make purchases at participating merchants right from your mobile phone or device.

When you add your debit card to Google Pay™, Apple Pay®, Samsung Pay or Masterpass, you’ll be assigned a virtual account number for added protection. This means your debit card number is not stored on your device and the merchant you purchase from doesn’t have access to it. Once enrolled, you’ll make purchases using your fingerprint, a personal identification number (PIN) you create, or Face ID at participating merchants globally.

Just tap, pay and you’re on your way! Your transaction will be processed in the same manner as a normal debit card transaction. If a merchant allows cash back, you’ll still have the option to select debit, enter your PIN and request cash.

Choose the mobile wallet service that works best with your mobile phone or device. For more details about each mobile wallet program and how to get started, visit the links below:

*Debit card text alert fraud prevention service provided by smsGuardian. Enrollment required for service activation. Your mobile device must have the ability to send and receive text messages, and message and data rates from your wireless carrier may apply. Guardian text alerts should not replace regular monitoring of your accounts. You may unsubscribe from this service at any time by visiting the Guardian website or by texting the word “STOP” in reply to a Guardian Alert. To view the full Terms and Conditions, please click here and log in.

All Merrimack Debit Cards are equipped with EMV chip technology, improving the global usability and security of your card. When the card is inserted for payment at a chip-enabled terminal, the chip generates a code that is unique to the transaction as part of the authorization process. Unlike most card information, the code is not printed on the card and changes each time you use it – making the card more difficult to counterfeit.

Open a checking account at The Merrimack and you can leave the office the same day with debit card access to your new account. If your card is lost, stolen, or damaged, simply stop by your closest office and we’ll issue you a replacement on the spot. Instant issue debit cards are available at all Merrimack offices.

Our automated card monitoring provider, Fraud Center, monitors card transactions 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, and alerts you when a suspicious card transaction is detected. If fraud is suspected, your card may be temporarily suspended while we try to reach you by phone, email, and/or text message to protect you from ongoing fraud. The alert will always include the last 4 digits of your card number and a description of the transaction. You do not need to provide personal information in response to an alert – simply reply in the manner you received the alert to let us know whether the transaction is authorized or fraud.
