The app ensures maximum security through hardened native app frameworks and 2-factor biometric authentication methods.

The merchant cannot make a charge to a blocked or deleted digital debit card and no transaction can be made at the payment wallet. - Give your debit card a name to better distinguish it from the others. - Look up the details of the debit card directly in the app if you don't have the physical card at hand. Mobile Payments - Did you know you can also use your debit card to make contactless payments with your smartphone? - Deposit your debit card from the app directly into the payment wallet on your device if your bank is setup for it. - Pay at all NFC terminals worldwide without opening the app for it. Card settings: - You can use the card settings to influence online shopping, cash withdrawals at ATMs, transactions to gambling & betting or contactless payment (if your bank is enabled for it). - Give your debit card a name in your card settings. This helps especially if you have multiple debit cards. - Remove individual debit cards from the app in your card's settings if needed.
