What is an Account Alert?

An Account Alert is a notice that alerts you to important information about your account. For instance, an Account Alert can tell you when your statement is available online, when your payment was received and even remind you when your payment due date is approaching. You can receive Account Alerts at your choice of email and/or mobile device. Simply choose the Account Alerts you'd like to receive and how you'd like to receive them.

What is a Push Notification?

A Push Notification is an Account Alert sent directly to your iPhone or iTouch to keep you up-to-date while you are on-the-go and help you manage your account directly from your mobile device.

To configure which Account Alerts you receive by Push Notification, simply tap MANAGE ALERTS on your Barclaycard mobile app SUMMARY screen and update PUSH settings for each alert type.

To receive your Account Alerts by Push Notification, please make sure your Push Notifications are turned on for Barclaycard under "Settings" on your iPhone or iTouch.

Q. How do I change the preferences for Account Alerts I receive via email and/or text?
