Settling an estate often means dealing with credit cards—canceling them, paying final balances, claiming rewards points, or simply notifying issuers to prevent fraud or identity issues. Without clear information, loved ones can face frustrating delays, endless phone calls to issuers, or missed opportunities like unused rewards. The **Credit Cards** section in WhatNow makes this straightforward and secure, just like our Bank Accounts module.

Here, you can document every relevant detail for each card, including:

- Issuing bank or company name  

- Card type (rewards, cash back, travel, secured, etc.)  

- Last four digits of the card number (for quick identification)  

- Approximate balance or credit limit range  

- Rewards program details, points balance, or linked benefits  

- Any authorized users, joint accounts, or beneficiaries  

- Payment due dates, autopay setup, or preferred payment method  

- Contact info for the issuer's customer service or fraud department  

- Special notes—like 'cancel immediately' or 'transfer points to family member'  

- And, if you choose, the full card number and expiration date  

Like all WhatNow financial modules, this section includes an extra layer of security: sensitive information such as the full card number is encrypted and protected behind an additional password prompt. Only someone with the password you've provided can view those details—keeping your information safe until it's needed.

Entering the full card number is completely up to you. Our priority is easing the burden on your loved ones by giving them enough clear information to quickly identify accounts, contact issuers, close cards, resolve balances, or access rewards. If the issuer name, card type, last four digits, and any notes provide what they need to get started (most companies can verify and assist with proper documentation), you can confidently leave the full number blank. But if you want to streamline the process even further—especially for cards with significant rewards or autopay setups—enter it securely, knowing it's protected.

Add as many cards as you have, update anytime, and include supporting notes or attachments for extra clarity.

With WhatNow's Credit Cards section, you're not just listing plastic—you're handing your family a clear checklist to wrap up this important piece of your affairs quickly and correctly. No more hunting for statements or guessing at accounts. Just organized, secure guidance that lets them focus on healing, not hassle.
