Transactions

When you use your credit card for a purchase, the merchant will send your card number and purchase amount to the bank for an approval or an authorization. This authorization or pending transaction generally confirms that an account is open and the purchase amount is acceptable. The purchase amount sent for authorization varies by merchant type. Most merchants will request an authorization for the exact purchase amount and others may send an estimate that is more or less than the actual purchase amount.
It may take several business days for the actual purchase amount to replace the authorized amount on your account. Generally, the final purchase is deducted from your account within three business days. If the authorized amount does not match with an actual purchase amount within three business days, it will be removed from your account.
A pending transaction is deducted from your available credit but is not included in your account balance. The amount of the transaction will be added to your account balance and post to your account when the merchant determines the amount.
An authorization may vary from the final purchase amount in situations where there is an estimated authorization amount or a tip is involved.

Contactless payments use short-range wireless technology to securely complete payments between a contactless-enabled card or payment-enabled device and a contactless-enabled checkout terminal.

A contactless card is a chip card that has a near field communication (NFC) antenna, which enables close-range payments. When you tap your contactless card at a contactless-enabled checkout terminal (near the Contactless Symbol ), your payment is sent for authorization.

Hotels are allowed to request an authorization for an amount based on your length of stay, all applicable taxes, plus any additional expected dollar amount(s). Cruise lines and car rental agencies also follow this practice. Upon making your reservation, we suggest you ask for the total amount of the authorization.
A pending transaction cannot be disputed because it isn't final. The transaction may change or may never post to your account if the merchant does not finalize it. If you have questions about or do not recognize a pending transaction, check with any secondary or authorized users on your account to see if they made the transaction. If you still have questions, contact the merchant for details. Once the transaction has posted, if you still do not agree with the transaction, please contact Cardmember Service at 866-874-6711.

Payments

AutoPay allows you to schedule payments to be made automatically to your Edward Jones Mastercard account on a recurring basis from a checking or savings account. Your credit card bill is paid each month according to the schedule and amount you specify when you set up AutoPay. You'll never need to worry about due dates or missed payments.
You are required to view the AutoPay Terms and Conditions during the AutoPay set up process. To review after set up has been completed, log in to your Edward Jones Mastercard account online and go to the Payments page, choose to View AutoPay Setup, and then click on “View AutoPay Terms and Conditions” link to print a copy for your records.
When you choose “Make A Payment” you are scheduling a single payment to be made on a specified date. By setting up AutoPay, you are scheduling recurring payments to be made automatically every month to your credit card.
Your bill is paid each month on the day you select during enrollment. If this day falls on a Saturday, Sunday or holiday, the payment will be posted on the next business day.
Past authorizations can be viewed by clicking on “View Payment History” and future authorizations can be viewed and modified by clicking on “View AutoPay Setup.” Please note that payments will not be located in the Payment History until after the chosen payment date.
You can change your AutoPay payment amount or payment date within "View AutoPay Setup." Select “Edit” or “Delete” under the AutoPay Setup table.
Your AutoPay payment will display as "pending" after your monthly statement is produced up until two business days prior to your scheduled payment date. Within two business days, your payment is moved from "pending" to "processing" while a permanent record is created that will post in your transaction history on your payment date. Once a payment displays as "processing," changes cannot be made to this payment.
Your statement is designed to make it easy to view important information on your account. Learn more about reading your statement (PDF).2
AutoPay can be canceled within "View AutoPay Setup." Select “Delete” under the AutoPay Setup table.
