Access your Fidelity Rewards Visa account online
To log into your Fidelity Rewards Visa account, go to fidelity.com and select "Login" in the top right corner. Enter your username and password, then click "Log In". If you have set up two-factor authentication (which Fidelity recommends), you will receive a code on your registered phone or email and must enter it to complete login.
If you do not yet have an online account, you will need to create one before you can log in. You can set this up during your first visit to the login page by selecting "Register" and following the prompts. You will need your card number, Social Security number, and date of birth to register.
Once logged in, you can view your card balance, recent transactions, rewards points, and payment options all in one place. The portal also lets you set up alerts, change your PIN, and read statements.
Key Takeaways

- New users must register for an online account before logging in, using their card number, Social Security number, and date of birth.
- The login portal shows your balance, transactions, rewards, and payment methods in one dashboard.
- If you forget your password, use the "Forgot Username or Password?" link on the login page to reset it by email or phone.
- Two-factor authentication adds a security layer and is worth setting up if Fidelity offers it on your account.
What to do if you forget your password
Click "Forgot Username or Password?" on the Fidelity login page. You will be asked to enter your username or the email address associated with your account. Fidelity will send you a link to reset your password, usually within a few minutes.
Follow the link in the email and create a new password. Your password must be at least 8 characters long and include uppercase letters, lowercase letters, numbers, and a special character (such as ! or #). Once you have set your new password, return to the login page and sign in with your username and the new password.
If you do not receive the reset email within 10 minutes, check your spam or junk folder. If it is not there, contact Fidelity customer service by phone or through the Fidelity website to verify your identity and reset your password manually.
Setting up two-factor authentication
Two-factor authentication (also called 2FA) requires a second form of verification beyond your password when you log in. This makes your account much harder to access if someone learns your password. To turn it on, log into your account, go to "Settings" or "Security," and look for the two-factor authentication option.
Fidelity typically offers two methods: a code sent to your phone by text message, or a code generated by an authenticator app on your phone. Text message is simpler if you do not already use an authenticator app. Choose your method, follow the prompts to register your phone number or app, and Fidelity will send you a test code to confirm it works.
Once two-factor authentication is on, you will need to enter a code every time you log in from a new device or browser. Fidelity may let you mark a device as "trusted" so you do not have to enter a code every single time you use the same computer.
Troubleshooting login problems
If you see an error message when you try to log in, the most common causes are a typo in your username or password, or your account being temporarily locked after too many failed login attempts. Wait 15 to 30 minutes and try again, or use the password reset link to create a new password.
If your account is locked and you cannot reset your password by email, you will need to contact Fidelity directly. Have your card number, Social Security number, and date of birth ready so they can verify your identity. Fidelity customer service is available by phone during business hours, and you can also message them through the Fidelity website.
If you are trying to log in on a public or shared computer, clear your browser's cache and cookies after you log out. This prevents someone else from seeing your account information. On your own computer, you can choose to stay logged in, but Fidelity will log you out automatically after a period of inactivity for security.
What you can do once you are logged in
Your Fidelity Rewards Visa dashboard shows your current balance, available credit, and recent transactions in real time. You can filter transactions by date, merchant, or amount to find a specific charge. Each transaction also shows the merchant name and the exact time it was posted.
You can view your rewards points balance and see how close you are to redeeming them. The portal explains what your points are worth and what redemption options are available. You can also set up automatic payments, make a one-time payment, or change your due date if Fidelity offers that option on your card.
The settings section lets you update your contact information, change your PIN, read statements as PDF files, and set up alerts for large purchases, late payments, or unusual activity. You can also manage authorized users on your account if your card allows it.
Mobile app login
Fidelity also offers a mobile app for iPhone and Android that lets you log in and manage your card from your phone. read the Fidelity app from the Apple App Store or Google Play Store, open it, and select "Login" or "Sign In." Enter your username and password just as you would on the website.
The mobile app has the same features as the website: you can check your balance, view transactions, make payments, and track rewards. Many people find the app faster for quick checks because it remembers your login information between sessions (if you choose to let it). You can also set up biometric login using your fingerprint or face recognition, which is faster than typing your password each time.
If you have not downloaded the app yet, you can still log in through your phone's web browser by going to fidelity.com. The website is designed to work on mobile screens, though the app is usually slightly faster.
