Activate your Perk Card

Perk Card cardholders can perform this task.

Before your card admin can complete the order process of your new Perk Card and make it available to you, you need to activate the card depending on the type: physical or virtual (including single-use cards).

Activating your corporate card in the mobile app

To activate your Perk Card in the mobile app: 

  1. Tap Cards icon.
  2. Tap the card with the Draft status.

Activating your corporate card in the web app

To activate your Perk Card in the web app: 

  1. Go to Cards. 
  2. Select your Perk Card from the dropdown list
  3. Click Activate card.

Tip: if you have several cards, only activated cards show the last four digits. Unactivated cards are indicated with asterisks.

Activate your physical card

Selecting Activate card opens a new window where you must agree to the terms and conditions of the Perk Card. You are then taken through the following 3DS security configurations:

  • Phone number and SMS verification: Providing your mobile number enables a method to verify online card transactions.
  • Security questions: Providing answers to security questions creates an additional layer of security to your account.
  • PIN: Set a 4-digit PIN code for the card. You can change it later if needed.

Note: Each card should have its own unique PIN. For security purposes, don’t use the same PIN in multiple Perk cards.

Once you’ve entered all information, click Activate in the bottom right corner of the window. This completes the ordering process, and you’ll receive your Perk Card at your office or home address within the next ten business days.

Caution: When you pay with your Perk Card for the first time, you’ll need to insert your card into the card terminal or ATM and enter your PIN to fully activate your card.

Activate your virtual card

If you already have an existing Perk Card, you can click Activate card to automatically carry over the configured security settings to your virtual card, meaning your card activation requires just a single click.

Note: Virtual cards don’t have any PIN numbers.

If you don’t have another Perk Card, clicking Activate card opens a new window where you must agree to the terms and conditions of the Perk Card. You are then taken through the following 3DS security configurations:

  • Phone number and SMS verification: Providing your mobile number enables a method to verify online card transactions.
  • Security questions: Providing answers to security questions creates an additional layer of security to your account.

Once you’ve entered all information, click Activate in the bottom right corner of the window. This completes the ordering process, and your card is now immediately available for use.

Now, you are ready to enjoy the benefits of your Perk Card! For more about the features of the Perk Card, check out features of my Perk Card.
