If you have an OP-Visa, you also have Visa Account Updater (VAU). It updates your card details automatically in subscription and streaming services to which you have given your card details and which are using Visa Account Updater.
For example, you may have paid your Netflix subscription using your OP-Visa. When your OP-Visa card is renewed, you don’t need to enter your card details in Netflix again but they will be transmitted directly to the service through VAU.
Many other services, such as Spotify, Google and iTunes, get the details of your new Visa card in the same way. This enables smoother use of services.
Keep track of charges on your card
Subscription services with a monthly charge have rapidly emerged and become popular. A growing number of people have one or several subscriptions.
You should regularly check what direct debits are made from your card. If you notice payments that you have not made yourself, immediately contact our Card customer service to sort it out.
Sometimes, you may be charged monthly charges for a streaming service only because you forgot to cancel your subscription after the trial or discount period ended.
Set spending and withdrawal limits online or on mobile
As a rule of thumb, you should keep your card just like you would keep large banknotes or a key to a safe. Don’t give your card, PIN or other card details to anyone. Whey paying online with your card, always check the website address and that the website is protected.
Even if you are careful, it’s possible that your card or card details get stolen. In such cases, you can effectively limit losses if you have set spending and withdrawal limits.
You can set limits for cash withdrawals and pre-authorised card purchases as well as for online purchases and other distance purchases. You can change the daily spending and withdrawal limits of your cards quickly and easily on OP-mobile and the op.fi service. The changes will become effective immediately.
