Crypto.com Prepaid Card Activation

Everything you need to know about activating your Crypto.com Prepaid Card

Updated today

Virtual Crypto.com Prepaid Cards do not require activation; you only need to activate physical cards. Once you receive your physical Crypto.com Prepaid Card, follow these steps to activate it:

  1. Go to Card from the bottom navigation

  2. Tap More > Settings

  3. Tap Request Physical Card > Activate Card

  4. Complete identity verification

  5. Create and enter your Card PIN

    1. EU and UK-issued cards come with a preset PIN, which can be viewed under your Card Settings.

      1. For EU-issued cards, the default PIN is 4 digits. You can personalize it at any Visa ATM.

      2. For UK-issued cards, the default PIN is 6 digits and can be changed in your Card Settings.

Once your card is activated, simply fund it to start spending.

Note: Once your physical card is activated in the Crypto.com App, the CVV and expiry date on your virtual card will update to match the details on your physical card. If you have previously saved your virtual card information on shopping platforms, please remember to update it.
