Traveling abroad? It's smart to take less than a minute to set up a travel alert. Here's how to complete a travel notice for your Chase card online.
 |
When you travel abroad, it's a good idea to let Chase know about your travel plans.
This allows you to make seamless transactions when you are overseas, instead of just risking it and possibly having your purchase declined. It's a pain to have to unfreeze your account.
Luckily, it's super-fast and easy to set up a travel notice with Chase online. Here's how.
When to Set Up a Travel Alert
It's smart to do so anytime you travel outside of the U.S.
- Chase debit card users should set this up within 14 days prior to departure.
- Chase credit card users have up to 1 year before your trip starts.
Should you need to extend your travel dates abroad, simply update the form before your original return date.
You can also call Chase at 1-302-594-8200 if you are already abroad, traveling last-minute, or just prefer to speak to a human.
Don't have a card? Consider applying for the Chase Sapphire Reserve.
Chase Sapphire Reserve lets you earn 50,000 bonus points after you spend $4,000 on purchases in the first 3 months from account opening. That's $750 toward airfare, hotels, car rentals and cruises when you redeem through Chase Ultimate Rewards®. This card offers a $300 Annual Travel Credit as reimbursement for travel purchases charged to your card each account anniversary year.
This card earns 3X points on travel immediately after earning your $300 travel credit. 3X points on dining at restaurants & 1 point per $1 spent on all other purchases. The points can be transferred 1:1 to leading frequent travel programs including airline transfer partners. The card has $0 foreign transaction fees. The card comes with access to 1,000+ airport lounges worldwide after an easy, one-time enrollment in Priority Pass™ Select. There is a $450 annual fee.
How to Set Up a Travel Notice
Personal or business account holders can set up notifications by completing the following:
Step 1:
Log in your account from your desktop computer.
Step 2:
Click on the menu icon (3 bars) at the very top left corner. A menu will pop up. Select "Profile & Settings".
 |
OR you can click on the person icon on the top right corner and select any of the options.
Step 3:
The "Profile & Settings" menu will pop up on the left side. Scroll down and click "Travel" under the "More Settings" category.
 |
From there, simply make your selection (debit or credit card) and hit "update".
Step 4:
Enter your departure and return date, as well as your destination(s). That's it! All of your linked credit cards will be covered under the request.
 |
If your travel plans change, make sure to update the notification accordingly. Likewise, you can delete any unwanted notifications.
Setting Up a Travel Notice with the Chase App
Chase makes it seamless to set up travel notifications within their app as well. The process is very similar, and you'll need to click the following:
- Click on the person icon at the top right corner. This opens up the "Profile & Settings" menu.
- Select "My Settings".
- Scroll down to "Travel" under "More Settings".
- From here, select credit card or debit card to access the forms.
Bottom Line
Even though it's not completely necessary to submit these travel notifications, it will put your mind at ease knowing your card won't be blocked while on vacation. Just to be safe, you can even submit a request for when you travel to different states and intend on spending a large amount of money.
This feature helps you save time and possible headaches in the future. Don't call Chase like everyone else. It takes less than a minute to log into your account online to set up the notice.
