How to activate a credit card for the first time
You must activate it before you can use it. Many cardholders who apply for a card for the first time don't know much about this activation method, so they don't know what to do. In fact, there are many ways to activate very useful cards, but if you apply online, the activation methods may be different. Let's take a look.
generally, there are many ways to activate credit cards, including but not limited to SMS activation, online activation, customer service phone activation, outlet activation and WeChat activation.
The most commonly used and convenient activation method is telephone activation. You only need to dial the 24-hour customer service hotline starting with 4 on the back of the credit card with the reserved mobile phone and follow the voice prompts to activate the credit card.
tip: if the application for credit card is in the form of online application, you must go to the bank outlet to activate the card; If other methods are used before, you can choose one of the three activation methods.
Here's an introduction to the activation method of online credit card application.
Take Minsheng Bank's credit card as an example. After successfully applying for a credit card online, the bank will require the cardholder to activate the credit card at the business outlets of Minsheng Bank, which is actually equivalent to going to the bank for a second audit to confirm that the applicant is himself.
The activation process is as follows:
1. You need to go to the counter of the branch where the applicant of Minsheng Bank is located to activate, with your ID card and credit card letter;
2. After arriving at the bank, copy your ID card (one on the front and one on the back) and credit card (copy on the front). Then fill in the application guarantee and signature date behind the credit card letter in advance;
3. The counter staff will ask for the original ID card and credit card, as well as their copies. Then the password will be entered twice (six digits), and then the credit card information will be printed for the customer to check the signature for confirmation;
4. The identification and activation are completed here. You can ask the staff about their credit card overdraft limit and repayment date on the spot.
I want to remind you that there is generally no time limit for credit card activation, as long as you activate it within the validity period of the card. The credit card itself has a validity period of 3 or 5 years. If the credit card is not activated after the validity period, then your credit card will be invalid.
how to activate the credit card after you get it
In general, after the credit card is applied, there are several ways to activate it:
1. Network activation: bring my ID card to the bank counter to activate it.
2. Telephone activation: Call the customer service phone on the back of the credit card to activate. Activate according to customer service prompts.
3. Online activation: Log in to the website of the Credit Card Center. Each bank has different websites, but the activation steps are basically the same. For example, Everbright Credit Card can be activated by logging into the Credit Card Center of Everbright Bank online and directly selecting the "Online Activation" option.
how to activate a credit card?
Under normal circumstances, there are several ways to apply for a credit card:
1. Network activation: bring my ID card to the bank counter to activate it.
2. Telephone activation: Call the customer service phone on the back of the credit card to activate, and follow the customer service prompts to activate.
3. Online activation: Log in to the website of the Credit Card Center. Each bank has different websites, but the activation steps are basically the same.
reasons for the need for credit card activation: because credit cards are basically sent to applicants by registered mail, in order to avoid sending them to the wrong address or losing their credit cards during the mailing process, banks require that credit cards must be activated before they are used for spending. When activated, cardholders need to provide personal information, such as birthday and ID number, for verification.
for the safety of the cardholder, the card is not opened before mailing, so that even if the mailing is wrong or damaged, others will not be able to activate your personal information, and naturally they will not be able to spend by credit card.
Extended information:
What happens if the credit card is activated without spending?
it won't cause much problem if you don't spend after the credit card is activated. It's just that after the bank deducts the annual fee from the credit card limit, the customer must remember to repay it on time, otherwise it will be overdue, which will bring adverse effects and personal credit will be damaged.
of course, if the customer's card is directly exempted from the annual fee, then naturally there is no need to worry about the annual fee, and then just take care of the card to avoid information leakage and security risks.
It should be noted that in fact, many cards with the general card and gold card level can be exempted from the annual fee, so customers can swipe their cards several times a year, as long as the specified number of times is reached. At that time, the annual fee will be exempted and customers will not have to repay. In the past, as long as the credit card consumption is paid off on time before the repayment date (inclusive), the customer only needs to repay the consumption principal, and no interest will be generated.
and if customers only apply for cards for collection, not for credit card consumption, it is better to suggest that customers choose cards that are directly exempted from annual fees. If the application is for high-grade cards such as platinum card and diamond card, the customer will not be able to activate the use because of the hard annual fee, otherwise it will be overdue if the repayment date is up.
how to activate the credit card
The credit card needs to be activated because the credit card that came by email is in an inactive state and cannot be used. If you want to use it, you need to activate it yourself.
the credit card was sent to the cardholder by registered mail, but the password was not set immediately on the way or after I received the credit card. Therefore, the card that I just remembered is in an inactive state and cannot be used. If I want to use it, I have to activate it myself. The activation condition is of course the information filled in, and only the applicant knows what to fill in. This is also to ensure the safety of the customer's funds. If it is not delivered to the applicant, the card will not be automatically activated and no annual fee will be charged.
1. To activate a credit card, you need to provide personal identification information. You can activate the credit card in the following three ways:
1. Open the card through online banking, and if you have an online banking shield, you can set the transaction cash withdrawal password together;
(browser computer: macbookpromos14 opens google version 92..4515.131)
2. The card opening of the banking counter at the outlets is confidential, and I need my ID card and credit card when handling it;
3. Telephone voice self-service card opening. Of course, before activation, you will need to enter some personal information to ensure that it is the cardholder himself. If the information input is incorrect, you will switch to manual card opening.
Second, the annual fee rules for credit cards
The annual fee rules for credit cards refer to some corresponding regulations on the annual payment of credit cards. Banks are not allowed to charge an annual fee before the cardholder is activated. However, most people have little knowledge of the various rules for handling annual fees for credit cards in different banks. Most of the annual fees for credit cards are around 1 yuan, and some banks stipulate that the annual fee can be waived by swiping them three times a year.
The annual fee policy of most banks has not changed. Generally, the annual fee for standard credit cards is around 1 yuan, while the annual fee for gold cards is generally 2 yuan or 3 yuan. The annual fee for a single-currency card is lower than that for a dual-currency card. The annual fee of the supplementary card is generally halved corresponding to the annual fee of the main card.
the annual fee standard of credit cards in different banks will be different according to different cards. For example, Shanghai Pudong Development Bank standard credit card Puka annual fee master card 18 yuan, attached card 9 yuan; Gold card annual fee main card 36 yuan, supplementary card 18 yuan; The annual fee for Shanghai Pudong Development Co-branded Card is 36 yuan; As for the Pufa McDull series credit cards, the signboard of "free annual fee for life" has been displayed. Therefore, even for credit cards issued by the same credit card center, the annual fee standard will vary greatly. Cardholders should first ask how high this "potential cost" is when they apply for a card.
that's enough for the introduction of the credit card counter activation process.
