Mastercard’s Automatic Billing Updater, at no cost to you, helps reduce transaction declines that occur due to changed account numbers and expiration dates.

*You are still obligated to ensure that merchants have correct account information on file; failure to do so may result in a declined payment. Not all merchants participate in the ABU service.

New business customers are automatically enrolled in online banking and electronic statements and notices. If you were not automatically enrolled, you can enroll anytime by:

• Contacting customer support
• Visiting your local branch
• Contacting your Treasury Management Consultant

1. Log in to Online Banking. (You must first be enrolled in online banking. Learn how.)
2. Click Profile on the navigation bar at the top of the page. This link will take you to a list of preferences. Go to Electronic Statements and click Edit.

If you would like to enroll an account you do not see listed, you can send First National a secure email by clicking the Secure eMail link in the upper right corner of Personal Online Banking. In the email, include the account number to enroll and the email address where you would like to receive notification that your electronic statement is available for viewing.

Each organization approved for a donation will be forwarded a contribution acknowledgment receipt for each donation awarded. The completed contribution acknowledgment receipt should be immediately returned to First National no later than 21 calendar days after receipt. Please note that any organizations with outstanding contribution acknowledgment receipts for previous awarded donations may have future donations requests pended or declined until the missing contribution acknowledgment receipts have been returned.

Organizations will be notified in writing following First National’s decision to award funding. Your organization may also receive a phone call or email regarding your request. Please make certain the correct contact information is listed on your Donation Request.

First National will not contribute toward travel expenses for any individual or group, or towards any expense for an event being held outside Alaska. First National will never contribute funds to support illegal activities or for purposes that do not align with all local, state, and federal laws.

No. First National will neither contribute to nor make pledges on behalf of any individual. Only authorized representatives of a nonprofit organization may submit a donation request.

Organizations should submit only one request per calendar year. Those wishing First National to consider multiple events, programs or opportunities should submit one consolidated request. In such instances, our consideration may require up to, but not limited to 180 days, before a decision is available.

First National cannot respond to all newsletter, fundraising letters, direct mail, save the dates or other informational opportunities shared with us. For your organization’s program or event to be considered you must submit a donation request using First National’s standard Donation Request form along with all required supporting documentation.

No, there is no appeal process. However, your organization is welcome to make another request in a subsequent calendar year.
