Bank on top-tier security
Count on us to go above and beyond with our banking security practices. Here are some of the many ways we keep you and your money safe.
We’ve got your cash covered
Every account you open through Dave is backed and FDIC-insured up to $250K through Coastal Community Bank, or another partner bank. (That’s a fancy way of saying your money is protected from bank failure.) Conditions apply.1

Trust in 24/7 fraud monitoring
Stay protected against fraud with enhanced account monitoring. Unusual activity, logins from unknown devices, suspicious charges—we watch out for all of it to ensure a secure online banking experience.

Control your cards from the app
Live transaction alerts help you stay aware of potential fraud. If you spot surprise charges, you can freeze, replace, or change the PIN on your Dave Debit Mastercard® in just a few taps.

Always have access to your cash
Your digital and physical Dave debit cards have different numbers. That means if you have to freeze your physical card because it’s lost or stolen, you can keep using your digital card without a hitch.

Get help from a team member
If anything happens to your account, you can chat with us in the app Monday–Sunday from 4 AM to 6 PM PT.
