We’re updating the Manage My Visa Card website. On Tuesday, September 22, you’ll see a fresh new look and easier navigation to manage your account when you visit creditcards.vcib.ca

Your username and password will stay the same, but it’s important your email address is current for the new security verification process.

UPDATE YOUR EMAIL NOW 

What is Changing?

Security verification

We currently use 5 questions to verify your MMVC account. After the website update, this will be replaced with a single use verification code that gets sent to your email address on file to access the website.

Authorized User’s access

After September 22, only Primary cardholders and Account Administrators will be able to access MMVC.

However, authorized users will still be able to call Card Services 24/7 toll-free at 1-844-266-8242 to access their own account information.

Updating personal information

Once MMVC is updated, you will be able to update your contact information online.

Secure messaging

Balance Transfers, Credit Limit increases, add authorized user and transaction disputes are best serviced if you call us as it’s more efficient to review these on the phone together, so we’ve removed these Secure Message options.

When you send us a secure message, check out the ‘secure message guide’ which includes all the information we will need for your request – checking this helps your request get completed faster.

Other changes

• When you visit Vancity Community Investment Bank Rewards during your visit to MMVC, you’ll be able to access VCIB Rewards without entering your CVV – it will automatically take you to the VCIB Rewards site without needing to log in again.
• When you review your transactions, they will no longer be separated by pending and posted transactions. Pending transactions will be noted, but they will appear amongst posted transactions
• You will be able to update your contact information yourself – this includes your address, phone number and email address.
• We heard from cardholders that they didn’t understand why they still had to receive 2 paper statements after opting to go paperless. When you opt in with our new site, you will now only receive 1 more paper statement before you’re paperless.

There could be a few reasons why you’re not able to redeem your points at this time. For example, it could be related to the status of your Shared Interest Visa account. For assistance, please call Card Services toll-free at 1-844-266-8242.

Yes. If you’re the Account Administrator of more than one Shared Interest Visa account and each account is in good standing, you can transfer points between them by calling 1-844-266-8242. These accounts must be under the same Account Administrator/Primary Cardholder. For example, if you have a Shared Interest Classic Visa card and Shared Interest Gold Visa card, you can consolidate points from both rewards accounts into one.

No. Account Administrators can only transfer points between their own Shared Interest Visa accounts. For example, you can’t transfer points from your account to your sister’s account if she is the Account Administrator of a different Shared Interest Visa account.

Points earned through other reward programs, credit card companies, banks or credit unions can’t be transferred to Vancity Community Investment Bank Rewards.

If your Shared Interest Visa account is suspended
We may at any time suspend your account under the terms and conditions of the Vancity Community Investment Bank Credit Card Agreement, including if we suspect illegal, unauthorized or fraudulent use of the Visa Account. If your account is suspended, you will not be able to earn or redeem points during the suspension. If your account is restored, you will once again be able to earn and redeem points.

If your account is not brought back to good standing within 180 days past the due date, your account will be closed, and your points will be cancelled immediately.

Account Administrators and Authorized Users of Shared Interest Visa cards do not have the same responsibilities and access to their Visa account information.

The Authorized User has a credit card with their name on it issued under the Business account. The cards we issue to Authorized Users are sometimes called ‘supplementary cards’ or ‘additional cards’. The reward points belong to the Business and can only be redeemed by the Account Administrator. Authorized Users will not be able to redeem points, unless they have been designated as an Authorized Redeemer by the Account Administrator.

On a business account, one Authorized User must be designated by the Authorized Signatory(ies) as the Account Administrator. The Account Administrator will be VCIB’s main contact person for the Visa account and will have access to operate the account and make changes to the account on behalf of the business. The Business and the Guarantors are responsible for the debt incurred on the Business Visa account.

For more details on business cardholder roles, please review your Vancity Community Investment Bank Credit Card Agreement (for Business Use).

Only Account Administrators can access the Vancity Community Investment Bank Rewards website to redeem points. The reward points belong to the Account Administrators and can only be redeemed by them. Authorized Users will not have that option, unless they have been designated as an Authorized Redeemer by the Account Administrator.

Please note only Account Administrators can view and add Authorized Users to their account.

1. Log into Manage my Visa card at creditcards.vancitycommunityinvestmentbank.ca
