đź‘Ťđź‘Ťđź‘Ť SMS or Email alerts provide instant notification of a transaction allowing you to quickly identify suspicious activity.
In addition to email alerts, look for a bank that allows you to temporarily “lock down” your accounts and credit cards. My brokerage accounts are always “locked down”. No outgoing transfers of any kind are allowed while locked down. If I want to make a transfer, I unlock the account, make the transfer then relock the account. The whole process only takes a couple of minutes.
