1. The activation of the provident fund card can be done online:
1. First, you should log on to the local provident fund website, which is different from place to place. Let me take "Shanghai Housing Provident Fund Network" as an example.
2. click "account inquiry" in the "service hall" module to pop up the "personal login" page.
3. Enter the personal provident fund number under "Personal Provident Fund Account Login". The initial login password is the last six digits of the personal ID card (mantissa x is by default), and both 15-digit and 18-digit ID cards should be tried. After successful login, follow the system prompts: modify the password of the joint card, and change the password to activate the provident fund account (as long as the password is changed successfully, the provident fund account will be activated).
2. activate the provident fund card at the local housing provident fund management center. You just need to bring your valid ID card to the service hall. There will be a front desk where you can be instructed to go to the counter or on the self-service machine.
3. activate the provident fund card business at the bank outlets associated with the provident fund. because the initial password of the provident fund card is random, it needs to be reset when handling it.
