At PTSB we’re continuing to evolve for a better banking experience for you which includes modernising and rolling out our new look banking cards.
Our new look physical cards include design features built on a better understanding of our customers, further enhancing card usability and accessibility.
New physical card features include:
New look physical Debit and Credit Cards started to issue to customers on a phased basis from June 2024:
If your Debit Card is replaced as damaged or due to natural expiry, you will need to allow up to 2 business days for it to update in your Digital Wallet. You will be unable to use your Digital Wallet during this period.
When you receive your new card, you will need to activate it within 60 days and update any card-based payments or subscriptions that you may have as you will have a new card expiry date and CVV number.
It’s easy to activate your Contactless Visa Debit Card. Just do one of the following:
If you are adding your new Visa Debit Card to Apple Pay or Google Pay for the first time, it is important to activate your new card before you add it to your Digital Wallet.
Your Digital Wallet on your phone will update with your new look Visa Debit Card.
If you’re setting up a new card for the first time, or adding a card that is not currently in your Digital Wallet, you will see the new look cards. If you have a Credit Card, this will update with a new look in the coming months.
Please ensure that your card is activated before setting it up in the Digital Wallet, if doing so for the first time. It’s easy to activate your Contactless Visa Debit Card. Just do one of the following:
Existing Credit Cards will update with a new look at a later date.
