How to use debit and credit cards safely

  • Keep your card in a safe place – don’t leave it unattended anywhere, such as on a restaurant table or in your car, office or hotel room. Check regularly that you have not lost your card. 
  • Start using mobile payments to avoid having to enter your PIN at payment terminals. Read more about mobile payments
  • Keep your PIN to yourself and memorise it. If you forget your PIN code, you can check it in Nordea Mobile or Netbank. Read more about PIN
  • Do not store your card and PIN in the same place. When entering your PIN, make sure that no one can see it.  
  • Never reveal the card number or PIN to anyone via telephone or email or in any other way, even if inquirers present themselves as the bank’s employees or police officers. 
  • Enhance your card’s security by setting daily security limits for cash withdrawals at ATMs and for bill payments in Nordea Mobile and Netbank. Read more about card security limits
