Fidoo card renewal

When to renew the card

The standard validity of each payment card is three years. This way, you can always find the month and year to which it applies on your credit card. You will not be able to pay with the card after this date. To avoid a situation where your card is no longer valid and you do not have a new – renewed card available, we automatically start the process of card renewal in advance, i.e. issuing a new card with the same number and a new three-year validity period.

Who can renew the card

  • Two months before the card expires, we inform both the Fidoo’s main administrator and the cardholder that the card is about to expire.
  • From this point on, the chief administrator has a few weeks to decide whether or not to renew your card.

How to confirm receipt of a renewed card

Web app

  1. Tasks section – Renewal card acceptance confirmation – Open.
  2. Check the Receipt Confirmation box and type Confirm.

Mobile app

  1. Bottom menu More – Tasks – click on the Renewal card acceptance confirmation task .
  2. Select Accept Card, the card becomes active.

Frequently asked questions about the web or mobile application

By confirming receipt of the card and activating it, the original card will no longer function and only the renewed card with a new validity period will be valid. So always make sure you already have a new card before confirming receipt of your card.

The original card will expire at the end of its validity and the renewed card will remain inactive until you activate the card by confirming its acceptance.

MO/TO payments

What are MO/TO payments and what are they used for?

MO-TO payments is the term for transactions that take place “remotely” (i.e. over the phone or email).
They are used, for example. when booking a hotel, renting a car or ordering goods or services over the phone.
In practice, the payment is made by the cardholder providing sensitive card details to the other person without further
security (card number, expiry date and CVC/CVV code) and this payment can then be successfully
implemented.

Currently, MO/TO transactions are already minimally used, as they have been replaced by payment gateways. If
the cardholder encounters this type of transaction, we recommend caution and verification
the trader to whom the data is transmitted.


MO/TO transactions and Fidoo cards

Fidoo cards also support MO/TO transactions while maintaining an appropriate level of security. Already at the moment
activation of the Fidoo card, this payment method is automatically enabled.
However, the way in which the MO/TO enters the payment is often crucial to the success of the payment
processing directly by the merchant where the cardholder makes the payment. To eliminate potential problems
we recommend using payment terminals or payment gateways.

Frequently asked questions about paying by card

This is the three numbers listed on the back of the card by the signature strip. It is a code that is used to identify the card when paying online.

Confirmation via push notification is only available in the current version of the Fidoo mobile app for both iOS and Android. We recommend downloading the latest version.

The second reason may be that the merchant (the e-shop) does not require this method of verification.

With the Fidoo card, you can only top up Google Ads by topping up a specific amount in one go, as follows:

  1. In Google Ads, click on Settings & Billing → Billing → Overview at the top right.
  2. Click on the Make Payment button.
  3. In the window that opens, click Add Credit or Debit Card.
  4. Enter your Fidoo card details and the amount you want to top up.

    After checking your details and confirming, the top-up amount is immediately loaded into your Google account and the transaction is immediately displayed in the Fidoo app.

If you pay by card frequently or for smaller amounts, the merchant’s terminal may not connect to the bank to verify the current balance and charge the payment later. Why is this happening? Every online payment costs something, so some merchants accept small amounts. offline. It also helps them check in faster at the checkout. Thus, the card is not blocked, as is usual, and the merchant simply deducts the payment from the card in a few days, which can put the card in the negative.

It’s good to know that you won’t see the payment in the app if it’s offline. You will only see the payment when the merchant posts it.

Basic safety information

Because we work with corporate finances, it is important to respect certain security rules.

Security policy for users

We’ve put together a Security policy for users to help you navigate a safer zone.

Secure login

  • Two-factor authentication at login – combines login with a username and password, plus using a code delivered via SMS.

  • You can lock or block Fidoo cards directly in the app.

You can find the mobile app on Google Play or the App Store. The app is free.

Security FAQs

  2. Enter the six-digit code you received on your mobile phone and activate the Login without SMS verification for 90 days button on this device by clicking on it below the fill-in field.

Yes, a single device can designate any number of different users as trusted under its user accounts.

If you’re logging into the app from a device (computer, tablet, laptop, mobile phone, etc.) that isn’t added as trusted, we’ll offer you the option to add it as trusted right on the login screen. Just activate this setting in the window where you enter the SMS verification code. The next time you log in from this device, all you have to do is enter your app ID and password.
