Wells Fargo helps you protect your card with:

Zero Liability protection: We will reimburse you if you report unauthorized transactions promptly.
24/7 fraud monitoring: We regularly review your accounts for unusual activity. If you receive an alert from us for potential suspicious card activity, review and respond promptly to verify the transactions. You do not need to enroll to receive this alert.

Contactless and chip-only Wells Fargo EasyPay Cards come with chip technology. The chip on your card does not store personal information. Learn more about the contactless card.
Alerts: Stay informed of your card activity by enrolling in Wells Fargo Online, and setting up the alerts to track purchases and ATM withdrawals. Sign up for alerts or learn more.

What happens if my card has a negative balance?

If your card has a negative balance, we will not charge a fee for the negative balance. However, you must make a deposit or transfer promptly to return your card to a positive balance. A negative balance may occur if the merchant processes a transaction without an authorization or submits a final purchase amount that is greater than the original authorization (such as a restaurant tip).
