Trusted contact

You can provide a trusted contact for us to reach out to for certain circumstances, like if we suspect fraudulent activity on your account, or to confirm your contact information or health status.

Note

A trusted contact isn’t a beneficiary, and being named as a trusted contact doesn’t give that person access to your account. Collecting this information is for your protection and doesn't change your experience.
