# What Are Security Alerts?

## Learn about the different security alerts Yeeld can send and how they help you monitor your account and respond quickly to important activity.

Security alerts are notifications that help keep you informed about important activity on your Yeeld account.

They allow you to monitor your account in real time, making it easier to spot unusual activity and respond quickly if something doesn't look right.

---

Transaction Alerts

You may receive notifications whenever money moves through your account, including:

- Deposits.
- Payments.
- Transfers.
- Other important account transactions.

These alerts help you confirm that activity on your account is expected.

---

Sign-In Alerts

If your account is accessed in a way that requires additional security monitoring, Yeeld may notify you.

For example, you may receive alerts about:

- Sign-ins from a new device.
- Other important sign-in activity.

If you don't recognise a sign-in, you should review your account immediately and contact Yeeld if you believe it wasn't authorised.

---

Password and Security Alerts

You'll be notified about important changes to your account security, such as:

- Password changes.
- 4-digit app passcode changes.
- Other significant security updates.

If you receive one of these notifications and didn't make the change yourself, contact Yeeld immediately.

---

Fraud Detection Alerts

Yeeld continuously monitors accounts for unusual or potentially fraudulent activity.

If suspicious behaviour is detected, we may send you a security alert and, where appropriate, carry out additional security checks to help protect your account.

---

Visa Card Alerts

You may also receive notifications about activity relating to your Yeeld Visa card, including:

- Card payments.
- Your card being frozen or unfrozen.
- Important changes to your card settings.

These alerts help you identify any unauthorised use of your card as quickly as possible.

---

Why Are Security Alerts Important?

Security alerts help you:

- Stay informed about important account activity.
- Detect suspicious behaviour quickly.
- Respond sooner if your account or card has been compromised.
- Help keep your account secure.

---

In Summary

Security alerts provide real-time notifications about important activity on your Yeeld account, including transactions, sign-ins, security changes, fraud monitoring and Visa card activity.

Keeping notifications enabled helps you stay informed and act quickly if anything unusual occurs.
