Frequently Asked Questions

  • What is a Custom ATM/Visa® Debit Card?

    A custom GSCU ATM/Visa® Debit Card lets you customize how your GSCU ATM/Visa® Debit Card looks by using almost any digital picture to create a one-of-a-kind card. Show off your family, pets or your favorite vacation. Your custom card works the same as a regular GSCU ATM/Visa® Debit Card card and showcases your style. 

  • What file format do I use for my digital image?

    Please use a high quality image - the better your image, the better your card will reproduce. Picture files can be in JPEG (.jpg), PNG, GIF, Bitmap (bmp) or TIFF formats. Please note, the larger the file size, the longer it will take to upload. 

  • How do I create a custom card?

    Just visit gscu.org/customcard, choose whether you want to create your custom GSCU ATM/Visa® Debit Card or a custom ATM card, upload your favorite digital picture and customize the image on your card by moving, rotating and resizing it. You can then preview the card and submit it. Your image will be reviewed for compliance in accordance with the Image Guidelines and once it's approved, you will receive your card in the mail within 7-10 business days. If for some reason your card image is denied after being reviewed, we will contact you. 

  • What should I do with my existing GSCU ATM/Visa® Debit Card card and any bill payments it is linked to once I receive my custom card?

    For security reasons, your new custom card will have a different card number, expiration date, and CVV security code than your existing card. If you have items automatically billed directly to your GSCU ATM/Visa® Debit Card, you will need to update this information with the biller by contacting the biller and switching the transaction to your new custom card information. Upon activation of your custom card, you should destroy your old card immediately. Your GSCU Debit card will be deactivated approximately 30 days from the date you order your custom card.
