What are the safety tips for using a debit or credit card?

  • A bank card is strictly personal. Keep it in your pocket or in another safe place.
  • Put your signature on the back of the card as soon as you receive it.
  • Always keep the PIN code to yourself: don't tell anyone or don't write it down anywhere. You can change your PIN code at any time at an (external) ATM in Belgium. This will allow you to choose a code that is easy to remember.
  • Destroy expired cards immediately.
  • Make sure that no one can see the PIN code when you enter it on the keyboard.
  • Check your statements regularly. If you notice any unusual transactions, contact your bank immediately.
  • Keep your card in sight when paying in a shop.
  • Make sure your card is returned to you after a payment.
  • If you are abroad, always check that the amount and the currency unit on the receipt or document match before you sign. Do not sign anything if you do not agree with the transaction.

What to do when entering 3 times a wrong PIN code ?

After 3 incorrect PIN codes, your card is automatically blocked for security reasons. You can unblock it yourself via our transaction site.

  • Request a PIN code reminder
  • Read the instructions and click on "Got it"
  • Enter your PIN code at a payment terminal or ATM.

Please note: you need to enter your PIN code to unblock your card. Any intermediate payment without contact and without a PIN code will require you to repeat the procedure.
