Protect Your Cards Against Future Fraud

    Make stolen card data useless even if the leak source isn't found.

    What to do

      • Remove the old card from every saved-payment site, browser autofill and mobile wallet
      • Re-add the new card to wallets only on devices you trust
      • Turn on transaction alerts and lower the contactless / online limit if your issuer allows it
      • Use virtual / single-use card numbers for online purchases (Privacy.com, Revolut, Apple Card, etc.)
      • Check the credit report for new accounts opened with stolen card-linked data
