Text Savings Retirement FAQ

Why we’re making changes

We have high standards when it comes to the products and services we offer. So we regularly review them as our members’ needs change.

In some cases, that means retiring features like Text Savings.

What will happen to my current Text Savings transfers?

We'll stop the automatic transfers and daily text messages on March 14, 2025. Please note, you’ll no longer be able to send text message commands to USAA Text Savings.

Your current enrollment will be automatically deactivated, but you can unenroll at any time before then.
