Smart Spending: The Benefits of Using Your Hickory Point Debit Card
In today’s fast-paced world, convenience and security matter — especially when it comes to how we pay. At Hickory Point Bank, your debit card is more than just plastic in your wallet. It’s a simple, safe, and smart way to manage your money daily.
What Is a Debit Card?
A debit card lets you spend money directly from your checking account. Every purchase is deducted immediately — no interest charges or monthly bill. Because your spending is tied to your own funds, sticking to your budget is easier.
Our debit cards are accepted everywhere MasterCard® is, giving you flexibility at stores, restaurants, ATMs, and online.

1. Wide Acceptance & Easy Payments
You can use your chip-enabled debit card anywhere MasterCard is accepted — in-store or online — for a quick, secure checkout.

Withdraw cash at Hickory Point Bank ATMs or at MoneyPass® ATMs nationwide — all surcharge-free.

Turn everyday spending into savings. With Round-Up, each debit card purchase is rounded to the next dollar, and the difference is automatically transferred to your savings account. Small change adds up fast!
5. Great for Students & Families
Our 1st Access Debit Card pairs with Student Checking, giving teens and young adults the freedom to spend while parents enjoy built-in oversight. No monthly service fee makes it budget-friendly, too.
