• We want online shopping to be safe for you. To shop online, activate this feature for each of your Swedbank cards separately. Find out more about secure internet shopping.
• Before buying anything, make sure that the online retailer is trustworthy and safe.
• Try to find out more about the retailer. Every website must contain information about the company – its name and location, as well as the e-mail address and phone number you can use to get in touch in case of any problems. The terms and conditions regarding delivery, returns and warranty must also be clear, as well as the procedure for lodging complaints. Don’t fall for discounts that seem too good to be true.
• Unless you shop online frequently, we suggest activating the Internet shopping option only at the time of making the purchase.

• You can protect your funds by setting usage limits suitable for you. You can set individual limits for purchases, as well as cash and payment transactions.
• The usage limits can be changed on the Internet Banking site under “My cards” or via Swedbank mobile app.
• If necessary, the limits can also be temporarily increased.

• Along with the bank card, you will also receive a PIN that will be known to you only.
• Memorize the PIN. Don’t write it down on the card or anywhere else where somebody could see it.
• Don’t reveal the PIN to bank employees or anyone else.
• Try to enter the PIN in a way that nobody else could see it because the card can be stolen and used by another person. You as a customer hold responsibility for any purchase made with your stolen card that has been confirmed with the PIN.
• Immediately change the PIN if you suspect that somebody else knows it. You must also change the PIN if you get a message from the bank saying that you need to change the PIN. This is possible at any Swedbank ATM.
• When choosing the new PIN, don't use any old PIN. Don’t use the same PIN for several cards.

• When you pay by card, do not let the person serving you take the card out of your sight as the card data can be stolen.
• If you lose the card, block it immediately in the Swedbank mobile app, or call the Consultation Centre and ask the card to be closed.
• Do not send your card number by post or reveal it via the phone to anyone because your card data could be used by somebody for fraudulent transactions.
• Be careful when using other bank ATMs. Make sure you have collected your bank card and the requested amount of cash before you leave the ATM.
• When you pay by card, always double-check that the amount is correct before making the purchase. Also, try to regularly check previous card transactions in your Internet Banking user account or the Swedbank mobile app. If a transaction seems suspicious, contact the bank.
