The Importance of Card Activation
Bank cards have become a fundamental tool for daily transactions, as indicated by BBVA. However, it is vital that users activate their cards in order to enjoy the benefits they offer.
Activation through the ATM
One of the most common methods of activating a card is through an ATM. With an extensive network of more than 4,500 cashiers, BBVA facilitates this step. Simply insert the card and enter the PIN code that comes with the card to complete the activation process.
PIN customization
At the time of activation, users have the option to change the initial PIN, which allows for greater security and adaptation to their preferences.
Activation through the BBVA APP
For those who prefer a more digital approach, the BBVA mobile app is a very practical option. Activating the card is as simple as a few clicks on the APP, which also offers various functionalities to manage cards efficiently.
Card Management and Security
If the card is lost or stolen, the APP allows you to deactivate it immediately or block it permanently, with the possibility to request a new card in one step.
Activation through the Website
Another alternative to activate the card is through the BBVA web portal. After logging into the online banking account at bbva.es, users can access the ‘Cards’ section and follow the steps to activate their card by entering the PIN code.
Call Option to Activate the Card
If you prefer a more personal interaction, BBVA offers the possibility to activate the card by calling 900 102 801. Through this line, activation can be carried out after identifying with digital banking.
Comfort and Safety at Every Step
Regardless of the option chosen, activating the bank card with BBVA is a quick and accessible process. Once activated, users can start using their card for purchases and withdrawals, always with the assurance that their personal PIN will keep their transactions secure.
