Credit unions are restricted by federal law to serve only a defined and approved field of membership. You must be within La Cap’s field of membership or be a relative of a member in order to open an account. La Cap’s field of membership covers many groups and areas. To find out if you are within our field of membership, check your membership eligibility or call us for more information at 800.522.2748 or 225.342.5055.
There are several ways to become a La Cap member:
A deposit type account must be opened. Deposit type accounts include savings, checking, share certificates and IRAs. Simply open the account type of your choosing and deposit the minimum required balance amount for that account.
Yes, members of your immediate family including your spouse, children, parents, brothers, sisters, stepchildren, stepparents, grandchildren, grandparents and their spouses are eligible for La Cap membership.
Your savings are federally insured to at least $250,000 and backed by the full faith and credit of the United States Government.
The NCUA is the independent agency of the U.S. Government responsible for managing the National Credit Union Share Insurance Fund (NCUSIF). The NCUSIF was established by Congress in 1970 to insure member share accounts against loss within specified legal limits.
No, you do not have to terminate your membership if you change employers or move — once a member, always a member.
No, it is only a temporary access code. Never enter a secure access code on the login page as a password or as an existing password when instructed to change your password or establish a new password.
Once you have successfully logged into the online banking system, you can update your preferred contacts via Update Contact Info found in the Services Menu.
You can retrieve your username by clicking on the “Forgot Username?” link. A text message to securely verify your identity will be sent to the cellphone number on your account's file. You must have a cellphone number on file to use this feature. If you forget your username and do not have a cellphone number on file, please contact us. We will be required to securely verify your identity.
If you have unsuccessfully tried to login and have been warned that one more unsuccessful entry will lock your account, you may choose the Forgotten Password process. That process will enable you to reset your password to something you can remember without the risk of locking your account. If you choose to try to login one more time and fail, you will be required to contact us to unlock your account.
If you have locked your account due to several unsuccessful login attempts, for your security, you are required to contact us to unlock your account.
Once you have successfully logged into the system, you can change your username and/or password through the Settings > Security Preferences menu.
In today's online environment, login ID/password access to your financial information is no longer considered sufficient to securely verify your identity. Therefore, in addition to your login ID and password, our online verification requires us to deliver you a one-time secure access code via something only you possess (for example, your telephone). Once you receive the secure access code and enter it into our system, we will remember your devices and browsers and mark your browser with a cookie and/or other browser-specific object.
Registering your devices adds a strong layer of security to your online accounts. This means that no other unregistered devices in the world has access to your online information, even if your login ID and password were accidentally or unintentionally compromised. Once we register your devices and browsers, you will only be required to enter your login ID and password on future logins.
There are several reasons this may happen, including:
You can remove the registration of a device/browser by deleting your cookies, or only the cookie related to our online site. Please see your browser help for assistance in deleting cookies. You can also call us and ask to have all registered devices reset.
Yes, you can change the default display name for any account by navigating to the Settings > Account Preferences menu and entering your preferred nickname for some or all of your accounts. Your chosen nickname will be used instead of the default name or account number throughout the online banking system.
The oldest transaction available for the selected account displays at the bottom of the Account History page.
There is no association for the file type to the application. The easiest way to create the association is to save the download file to your desktop the first time, right-click on the file and choose Open with. This allows you to select Quicken or QuickBooks from a list, depending on the downloaded file type. The next time you download your history, the program should launch automatically.
This behavior is intentional to minimize download time. When you choose to export your data, the time it would take to display the data on the page is generally unnecessary. If you wish to display the data first, click Display Results and Submit to first show the data, then click Export to File to complete the export.
The Activity Center contains all transactions initiated via online banking, but does not include transactions made via other means, like ATM or debit/credit card transactions. This page also shows the status of each electronic transaction as it moves from a drafted status to approved, then processed.
In contrast, the Account Details page is a record of processed and cleared transactions against your account from all sources, not just online banking. Additionally, account history does not include transactions that have been drafted/approved/canceled via online banking, but only those that have already cleared or will clear your account the next processing day.
By going to Services > Add External Account, you can submit a request to associate an external account (at another financial institution) with your online banking login. You can then use this account with the Funds Transfer feature on the Transactions menu and move funds to and/or from this account to your accounts listed here in the online banking system. After entering the required information, click submit to register your request with the online banking system.
Two deposits will be made to the account that you have entered here (typically within five business days). Once you have received these two deposits, note the amounts. Then, go to Services > Verify External Account menu. You will enter these amounts to verify your ownership of the external account, and it will become available for use in making external transfers.
Yes, under Transactions > Funds Transfer you have the ability to initiate a one-time or recurring transfer. Funds transfers can be made to either a La Cap account or to an external account, once that account has been set up and verified.
You can cancel a single occurrence of a recurring transaction in the Accounts > Activity Center menu. Note that each recurring instance of the transaction is scheduled only when the previous instance of the transaction has been processed or completed and is displayed under the Accounts > Activity Center menu. Under the Recurring tab, find the transaction and click on the blue Actions tab located to the far right of the transaction you wish to cancel. Select Cancel. The transaction will be canceled without affecting the other occurrences of the transaction.
Yes, you can now modify recurring transactions. In the Accounts > Activity Center menu, choose "Recurring Transactions", then click on the 3 dot menu. A dropdown menu will appear, click on “Edit Series”, make changes, and click “Transfer Funds”.
You can log on and navigate to your messages menu.
Yes, the transport of your message is SSL encrypted and is never sent through public, unsecured communication channels like email communication.
Yes.
A Stop Payment request is an order by the writer of a check that the payment should not be honored. This may be related to failure by a merchant to provide services or due to potential fraud-related activity on the account. There is a fee for stop payments.
No, an online request to stop payment on a check or series of checks does not guarantee that the check(s) will be stopped, as the item(s) may have already been processed and posted to your account.
If you use remote deposit, you still need to keep the original checks for a period of time. The following terms are displayed the first time you use remote deposit and must be accepted in order to use this service: I must securely store each original check. I understand this means the original check(s) must be accessible after using Mobile Banking to make a deposit for a period of 60 days after transmission to you. If I am using the Service to deposit items into an account in the name of a Business to which I am a party I understand this means the original check(s) must be accessible only [under dual control] by my authorized personnel, that I deposit using the Services for a period of 60 days after transmission to you. Persons who have access to the stored checks must be fully bondable and have passed a thorough screening. After such period expires, I will destroy the original check. I understand and agree that I am responsible for any loss caused by my failure to secure the original checks.
When triggered, secure message and email alerts are delivered one business day after all of your transactions have been processed. Phone and text message alerts are delivered at the time you select on any day that the alert is triggered.
Yes, security alerts are event driven and are sent in real time; therefore, you may not enter a time at which you would like to be notified.
An email notification, because it is delivered over public email, contains no detail on the alert, only that it has been triggered. On the other hand, a phone notification will provide more alert detail.
If you miss the alert call, our alert system will leave a message on voicemail. If you believe you did not receive a phone call, please check your messages under the Messages menu to confirm receipt. If there is not an alert in the secure mailbox, confirm that the alert is enabled. If you still believe you did not receive an alert, please contact us.
Note: Email, phone and text message alerts are a convenience and should not be used to manage critical account details or appointments, as they are not 100% reliable delivery channels. If triggered, secure messages within the online banking system are very reliable, as they are sent within the online banking system.
If you believe you did not receive an alert email, please check your messages under the Messages menu to confirm receipt. If you received your secure message, but not your email, check your Junk email folder first. If your alert is delivered as junk mail, configure your junk mail settings to allow email from our email address. If there is no alert in your online secure mailbox, it was not sent. Confirm that the alert is enabled. If you still believe you did not receive an alert, please contact us.
Note: Email, phone and text message alerts are a convenience and should not be used to manage critical account details or appointments, as they are not 100% reliable delivery channels. If triggered, secure messages within the online banking system are very reliable, as they are sent within the online banking system.
Yes, you can edit an alert and turn on/off the Enabled box to render the alert inactive.
Security alerts are under the Settings > Alerts menu.
You can set up security alerts to set up notifications that let you know when certain security events happen. By default, you may already have some alerts selected that you may not deselect. If you enter multiple delivery channels (email, phone and/or text if applicable), you will get the same alert in all selected channels.
Your profile information may be used within the online banking system to pre-populate certain data or forms. In addition, we may rely on this profile contact information to contact you regarding online banking-related issues or to provide you information on these services; therefore, it is important to keep this information up-to-date.

The nicknames will then appear in the Funds Transfer drop down box and in the account overview screen.
