Suppose you applied to Sberbank for a Visa payment card, or at work you received a salary "plastic" sealed in an envelope, which, of course, needs to be activated. Why is this procedure necessary? The answer is simple - so that you can use the card in the future: withdraw money, make purchases in stores and similar operations. In our article, we will talk in detail about how to activate a Sberbank card.
Where to start?
In all cases, the bank issues cards that are sealed in a tight envelope. This is done so that an outsider does not accidentally or deliberately find out your personal PIN code and the number of the card itself. Actually, a PIN code is a few numbers with which you can access the funds on your account. Without them, your card is just a piece of plastic. Knowing the code, you can shootmoney at an ATM, pay for services; you will also need it when you shop in the store. Before picking up the card and signing its acceptance, carefully inspect the envelope - it should not be damaged, it should not show signs that it was once opened.
How to activate a Sberbank card?
So, after opening the envelope, carefully read your name written on the card. It must be free of errors and typos. Also on the front side should be indicated the number of the card itself of 16 digits and the name of the payment system - most often it is Visa, Mastercard, Maestro, there are others. Then turn the card over and put your signature on a special white field. Usually, after receiving the "plastic" at the bank, after you have confirmed the correctness of the data to the employee, the card is activated automatically within a day. To make sure that it is in working order, just go to the nearest ATM and try to make any transaction. For example, withdraw some money or request a cash balance in the account. If the ATM accepted the card and did not indicate that it was inoperative, this means that plastic can be used. Actually, this is the simplest answer to the question "how to activate a Sberbank card?"
How to make different types of cards active
The main bank of the country offers the population a variety of types of cards. Let's look at how to activate a Sberbank Visa card. Actually, this can be done in the same way as it is written in the previous paragraph: get plastic in the bank, and then wait a day until the card is brought into working condition. But there are ways to do it faster, that is, do not spend 24 hours for the bank to allow you to use your own money. So, you can carry out transactions online. For this, there are special terminals, ATMs and other self-service devices. You need to insert the card into the receiver, follow the instructions of the ATM and complete the transaction, during which you will be asked to confirm the PIN code. If you entered it correctly, the primary block will be removed, and you will be able to use the plastic freely in the future. By the way, the same method will be the answer to another question - "how to activate a Sberbank salary card?" The right decision is at an ATM, terminal, or wait a day until the bank does it for you. If you have any questions about the work of Sberbank, and also want to receive detailed information about the services provided, the bank's hotline is tel. 8-800-555-5550 - open 24/7. If you are in Russia, the call will be free for you.
How to activate the Sberbank Momentum card?
The "Momentum" card allows its owners to carry out the same operations on the account that are possible with other types of plastic. The only limitation is the amount of withdrawals or purchases per day –this is 100 thousand rubles, as well as the inability to link a salary or additional account to it. Otherwise, you can use Momentum cards wherever there is a Maestro logo (this is the name of the payment system). The main advantage of this product is that you do not have to pay for reissuing or maintaining the card; also, many stores and companies have special agreements with Sberbank to provide discounts to customers who pay for a service or product with Momentum. How to activate a Sberbank card of this name? Just as easy as the previous ones. After receiving it, the bank will do it on its own within 24 hours, or you need to go to the nearest ATM, complete the transaction and confirm it with the PIN code issued earlier. Thus, your card will work, and you can easily withdraw money or use it to pay for your purchases.
