You can manage the types of transactions allowed on your card by setting card controls. By using these, you can customise your card’s security and usage to fit your needs. You can set different controls for different cards.
To manage your card controls, go to the Cards tab and select Card controls.
List of controls
| Card Control | Details |
|---|---|
| Online payments | Turning off this control will block all payments made over the internet, including online purchases and subscriptions. |
| Magnetic stripe | Turning off this control will block all payments made using the magnetic stripe on the back of your physical card. This includes in-store purchases where you swipe your card and ATM withdrawals where the terminal reads the magnetic stripe instead of the chip. |
| Contactless | Turning off this control will block all payments made by tapping your physical card. This includes in-store purchases and withdrawing money from a contactless ATM. |
| Chip transactions | Turning off this control will block all payments where you insert your card into a terminal and it reads the chip to authorise the payment. This includes in-store purchases and ATM withdrawals. |
| Mobile wallet | Turning off this control will block all payments made by tapping your mobile phone or other smart devices on a terminal. This includes in-store purchases and withdrawing money from a contactless ATM. |
| Cash withdrawals | Turning off this control will block all cash withdrawals made using your physical card or mobile wallet at an ATM. |
| Non-3D secure Payments | Turning off this control will only allow online payments that require an extra layer of security, which you approve through the Wise app or via your mobile wallet. |
| Overseas Payments | Turning off this control will restrict the use of your physical card or mobile wallet to the country where you ordered the card. However, you can still shop online with this control disabled. |
