Instant Access to Your New PSECU Card – No Waiting Required

Share on email Share on facebook Share on linkedin Share on twitter

Imagine that you’ve just been approved for a new PSECU debit or credit card: congrats!  That’s a big step, and we’re just as excited as you are. But we also know that waiting for your card to arrive in the mail can be frustrating, especially when you’ve got things to buy and bills to pay.

That’s why we make it easy to skip the wait. As soon as you’re approved, you’ll have access to your card information in digital banking, so you can start spending, budgeting, and managing your money instantly.

Why Instant Access Matters

Life doesn’t pause just because your new card is in the mail. Whether you’re stocking up on groceries, replacing a card that was lost or stolen, or ready to set up online payments, you shouldn’t have to wait days to get moving again.

That’s why digital access is a game-changer. You can view your card information, like number, expiration date, and security code, within minutes of being approved.

This feature is especially helpful if:

  • You want to shop online right away.
  • You need to update recurring payments, like streaming or subscription services.
  • You lost your card and need a quick replacement.
  • You’re setting up a mobile wallet and want to tap to pay in-store.

Built-In Security You Can Trust

If the idea of having your card information show up instantly online makes you nervous, you’re not alone. But rest assured this feature is built with your security in mind.

Your card details are only available when you log into PSECU’s secure digital banking platform, and you can only access it through your authenticated account. Plus, when you add your card to your mobile wallet like Apple Pay®, Google Pay™, or Samsung Pay®, your actual card isn’t stored or shared. Instead, a secure, encrypted token is used to process the payment, which keeps your card information private and protected.

How to Get Started

Getting set up is simple. Just follow these steps:

  1. Log into digital banking.
  2. Navigate to the menu:
    1. In online banking, click Manage Card.
    2. In the mobile app, select Cards.
  3. Follow the prompts to activate your card or add to your mobile wallet.

A Smarter Way to Bank

Managing your money should be quick, easy, and secure. Digital card access isn’t just a tech feature; it’s a better way to bank! Whether you’re replacing a card or opening a new one, you don’t have to wait to take control.
