Can I spend on my new card before it arrives?

Yes of course. Here in the app you can:

  • Add your card to a digital wallet so you can use Apple Pay or Google Pay
  • View your card details which will allow you to make purchases online

Don’t forget that when your new card arrives, you’ll need to activate it in the app before you’re able to use it in person (e.g. in shops).

Your first payment in person (like in a shop) will need to be made using your PIN. You can then use the card contactless. Make sure you know your PIN on your first in person transaction.

Jump to the manage card screen to add your card to a digital wallet and view your card details or PIN.
