You can adjust what your card can be used for yourself in eLounge. You can activate or deactivate the following areas at any time. 

  • Withdrawals from cash machines
  • Online shopping
  • Contactless in-store payments
  • Online betting and gambling

All types of use are activated by default.

Using 3-D Secure makes transactions safer and protects you against card fraud. This is an internationally recognised security standard. Transactions will not be executed without your authorisation. This lets you keep control of all online payments. The decision as to whether a transaction uses 3-D Secure processing is taken by the retailer.

Once the card has been delivered, you will receive a separate letter with instructions on how to register for 3-D Secure. For this you need to download the debiX+ app.

If you do not want to make online payments, you do not need this app.
