Your credit card PIN (Personal Identification Number) is an essential security feature. Here's what you need to know about setting up a PIN, maintaining security, and what to do if you need to recover or reset it.
Choosing a Secure PIN
When you activate your new credit card, you'll have the option to set up a PIN. For your security:
- We recommend choosing a new PIN that you haven't used before.
- Avoid common numbers like '1234' or your birth year.
Can I Use an Old PIN?
While you might prefer to use an old PIN for convenience:
- Using a previously used PIN can make your account more vulnerable to fraud.
- We encourage creating a new PIN to ensure your account's security.
Forgetting Your PIN
If you forget your PIN or wish to change it:
- Online Recovery: Log into your online banking account, navigate to the card management section, and select the option to reset your PIN.
- Mobile App: Use our mobile banking app to access your account settings and follow the prompts to create a new PIN.
Resetting Your PIN
Changing your PIN is a straightforward process:
- Choose the 'Reset PIN' option in your online account or app.
- Follow the on-screen instructions to select a new PIN.
Protecting Your PIN
Keep these tips in mind:
