Our tips for ensuring your card details are secure include; making sure you sign your card, keeping your PIN number confidential, and being careful when buying online.

Keeping your credit card secure starts when you first receive it. When setting up a secure code for your card, ensure that the PIN number you choose is not obvious or easy for others to guess, but is still easy for you remember so that you don't need to write it down.

Signing the card as soon as you receive it is also very important as it can help to verify your identity when using it. When using your credit card, ensure that no one can see your PIN number by covering the keypad with your other hand while you enter your PIN.

Online credit card security is also very important. When purchasing online, ensure that the website you are using is safe, and do not supply credit card or other secure banking information when receiving unsolicited emails and messages online.

You can contact ASB if you are unsure about the security of your ASB bank cards or are concerned about credit card fraud.
