My email/phone number is no longer active and I can no longer access myPOS
Please contact our Customer Support team and provide your new email address or new phone number. For security reasons a myPOS representative will confirm your identity before processing your request.
I forgot the PIN number for my card. What do I need to do?
If you have forgotten your PIN and entered it incorrectly three consecutive times, your Business Card will be blocked. This is done for your protection, and you need to contact our Customer Support to assist you in unblocking it.
Customer Support team will assist you with your PIN as well. After they confirm your identity, they will provide you with a phone number. This number is secure and used specifically for the purposes of issuing PIN codes. You will be asked to send this number a text message with the following text: myPOS + a space + XXXXXX (the last 6 digits of the card number). A text message will be generated containing your PIN. Do note that the text message must be sent from the mobile number used when opening the myPOS account. The PIN will be issued to this mobile number as well.
To make your PIN code easier to remember, you can amend your PIN at any ATM. Simply select the option Change PIN from the ATM’s menu and follow the instructions.

Why is my business card blocked?
Your money is of utmost importance to us and we have to protect it! We have highly efficient automated systems for fraud prevention and they can block your myPOS Business Card in case a suspicious transaction is detected. We want to protect you from transactions which you don’t actually perform.
You should receive an SMS or push notification in your myPOS app telling you that your card is blocked because of a suspicious transaction. The notification will give you instructions on what to do.
In case you have not received a notification, please contact us via your registered e-mail or call us to confirm the transaction and we will unblock your card.
In some cases, your myPOS Business Card may be blocked because your account is blocked.
Why is my account blocked?
As a financial institution, we are required to monitor and detect financial crime. We provide sophisticated monitoring combined with reliable fraud prevention services acting in combination with fraud prevention specialists - our Risk and Compliance teams.
Our system scans everything that goes on behind the scenes (card transactions, POS transactions, Internet transactions, internal transfers, credit transfers, cash withdrawals, etc.) and once it finds traces of suspicious activity, it instantly flags it until a compliance agent checks and makes sure all is fine.
Apart from that, our Compliance Department cooperates with external partners and intelligence networks to detect and remove fraudulent accounts quickly, prior to avoiding any damage.
A certain account will get locked whenever the system raises too many flags, either from our own analysis or based on information from our partners.
The reasons for this can be various:
These and many others raise risk flags and we must block your account for security or regulatory reasons.
To unlock an account, our Compliance and Risks teams must review each flag, making sure that everything is 100% compliant. Depending on the complexity of the issue, some accounts can be under review for longer than others.
Why is my account blocked, but the Customer Support team does not help me?
The Customer Support team does not unblock accounts. This is done only by the designated teams responsible for monitoring and blocking accounts - Compliance and Risk.
Furthermore, we are not allowed to announce any details about the account that is blocked until the case is resolved. This means that our Support team cannot share any specific information on why your account has been blocked, or how long it will take to be reviewed.
What can I do if my account is blocked?
First, check your email and/or online account for Notifications we have sent. It is most likely that we have already requested information or documents from you. Please perform the required actions. Contact us if you need further clarification or help with your case. Prepare the documents for your recent transactions, so you have them ready once we reach you.
I have a question about a declined card transaction and/or a blocked amount
A Business Card transaction can be declined on several occasions:
When using rental services or self-service facilities, it can happen that the service provider blocks a certain amount in your account. The amount is typically held for 45 days and then released. A myPOS representative could assist you in releasing the amount sooner, do note that further documentation may be required.
How long does it take for a SEPA or a SWIFT transfer to clear?
A SEPA transfer clears in 2 to 3 business days, a SWIFT transfer in 3 to 5 business days.
A transfer can sometimes be delayed if any of the beneficiary’s details were entered incorrectly. For example, if the beneficiary’s name was entered where the company name should have been.
PayPal transactions made with my Business Visa card are processed in the wrong currency, what should I do?
It is likely that PayPal cannot identify the currency of your Visa Business card. To resolve this, please send a request to PayPal by following the simple steps below:

How to defend against phishing, vishing and other malicious attacks?
What is phishing?
Phishing is a social engineering attack in which the sender of an email tends to pose as a legitimate organisation, which, through the email, asks you to click on a link or download an attachment that can be harmful and have severe consequences for both you and your organisation.
How do I protect myself from phishing attacks?
Always ask yourself whether the email, call or text message you received were expected and if not, be on your guard for any requests for personal information, or requests that ask you to take urgent actions such as clicking on a link or downloading a document. These actions can infect your device and give the bad guys access to your personal data. This can be disastrous for you and your organisation.
