DALLAS, June 9, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- Comerica Bank today introduced Comerica Mobile Alerts(SM) for text and email, providing the bank's retail customers with added convenience and security.

"Consumers today demand greater convenience and higher levels of security in their banking services, and mobile alerts are one way we're answering that call," said Frank Natoli, senior vice president, Retail Products and Skills Development for Comerica Bank. "If you want to know when your paycheck hits your account or when your mortgage payment clears, our alerts will notify you immediately. These alerts really help our retail clients bank simpler and bank smarter."

Comerica Mobile Alerts can potentially provide a layer of fraud protection – alerting customers of transactions that are outside of their normal purchasing or banking behavior. And customers get to define what's 'normal' for their accounts, by picking and choosing from a selection of 10 different alerts types: daily balance, low balance, savings goal, negative balance, continuous overdraft, large withdrawal, large ATM transaction, large debit card transactions, large deposit, and direct deposit.

Comerica's retail customers should visit www.comerica.com/alerts and click "Sign Up" to get the mobile alerts process started.
