How to view, unlock or change your PIN

Helping you fix common PIN issues

  • Check your credit and debit card PIN in the app – you need to be the main cardholder for your credit card.
  • It's safe and secure. You can only view your PIN when you've securely logged in.
  • Unlock or change your PIN at most UK cash machines.

For new accounts you can start using these features as soon as the application process is complete.

  • For security reasons, we can’t tell you your PIN over the phone.

    To view your PIN

    1. Log in to the app. Select 'Cards' on the navigation bar.
    2. Select 'View PIN'. Swipe to select the relevant card. You’ll only be able to view the PIN on active cards.
    3. Select 'Show PIN'. Your PIN will appear on screen for 10 seconds; you can select 'Hide PIN' to hide it sooner.
    4. That's it, you've viewed your PIN and can check it again anytime.

    To see how to do this, watch our video (1 min 37 secs).

  • If you enter your PIN incorrectly 3 times while shopping, your PIN will be locked. You can unlock it at most UK Cashpoints.

    To unlock your PIN

    1. Put in your card and enter your PIN.
    2. Select 'PIN Services' then 'Unlock your PIN'.
    3. All done, your PIN has been unlocked.

    If you are abroad, you’ll be able to unlock your PIN at most Cashpoints once you return to the UK.

    When abroad, you're able to withdraw cash at any bank with the Visa sign. You may need to give proof of identity.
