Frequently Asked Questions About PIN Codes

Will my old card and PIN still work when I receive a new credit card?

No. When you receive your new CardPlus credit card, you must create a new PIN. Once your new card is activated with the new PIN, your old card will automatically be deactivated.

How do I make purchases using my PIN?

Yes. Since supplementary cards are linked to the primary card, you must first create a PIN for the main card. You can then use the same process to set PINs for supplementary cards.

How do I make purchases using my PIN?

The Chip & PIN system offers a secure and easy way to shop:

The cashier inserts your card into the POS terminal.

  • Enter your 4-digit PIN.
  • Review the transaction amount.
  • Press Enter to confirm the payment.
  • Your PIN will not be visible—only asterisks will appear on the screen.

Once approved, the POS terminal will print a receipt.

This receipt confirms that your purchase has been successfully completed.
