Security

  • Examine the retailer - the website must contain information regarding the company’s name and location, as well as the e-mail address and phone number. Information must also be provided regarding the terms and conditions of delivery, returns and warranty, as well as the procedure for lodging complaints.
  • If you shop online with your card infrequently, activate the Internet shopping option only at the time of making the purchase.
  • Protect your money by setting suitable limits. You can set individual limits for purchases, as well as cash and payment transactions.
  • The usage limits can be modified on the Internet Banking site under “My cards” or via Swedbank’s mobile app.
  • If you have forgotten your card’s PIN, check it in the Swedbank mobile app under “Cards” > “Card PIN”.
  • Do your best to enter the PIN in a way that nobody else could see it because the card can be stolen and used by somebody else. If a payment with a stolen card is confirmed by the PIN, the customer themselves will be responsible for it.
  • Immediately change the PIN if you suspect that somebody has found it out or if you get a message from the bank that you need to replace the PIN. This can be done at any Swedbank branch.
  • When choosing a new PIN, don't use one you've already used. Don't choose the same code for more than one card. Don’t reveal the PIN to bank employees or anyone else.
  • When you pay by card, do not let the person serving you take it outside your field of vision because your card data can be stolen.
  • In case of losing your card, immediately block it on Swedbank's mobile app or Internet Banking site. If you’ve blocked your card on the mobile app or Internet Banking site, you can unblock it or request replacement of the card within 10 days of the card being blocked.
  • Always check the transaction amount of the purchase you’re making with the card. Also, try to regularly check the past card transactions via Swedbank’s Internet Banking site or mobile app. If a transaction seems suspicious, contact the bank.

Sustainability

Using cash not only brings environmental issues but also may support the shadow economy. By moving from cash to digital payments, we can protect our planet, remove the anonymity of transactions, and even more - save time spent managing money.

  1. Pay digitally. It helps you track your expenses, set the limits for certain expense categories, and identify where you can manage your consumption habits.
  2. Be aware of non-recyclable receipts. Paper receipts are made from non-recyclable thermal paper. When paying by card, ask for a paperless receipt which you can receive online by e-mail.
  3. Contactless payments are clean and hygienic. By using contactless payments, you can reduce the physical contact between different people who are exchanging banknotes or touching the ATM.

The total volume of card payments in the Baltics increased by 45% during the last 6 years. Paying by card is hygienic, quick and flexible - use contactless or chip and PIN transactions.
