Your Co-op Visa Card allows you to spend without having to carry cash around. It is a transactional card.
No need to queue at ATMs wasting valuable time to access cash. Your Co-op Bank Visa Card can be used to pay for fuel, shopping, dining, hotels, online transactions, utilities etc. without withdrawing cash from an ATM, as long as the merchant accepts Visa cards or where a Visa sign is shown
The new chip and pin technology helps prevent card-related crime. Each card has a tiny chip embedded to make the card virtually impossible to copy. Not only is the chip and pin secure, it’s easy and fast to process which means shorter queuing at the till. No need to carry cash and small change to pay for your shopping at supermarkets and restaurants.
If your card is lost or stolen, call Co-op Bank immediately to let us know. We will block the card and hence protect the money in your account as well as replace your card.
You can use your Co-op Bank Visa Card at thousands of merchants who accept Visa Card payments. In fact, you can use it anywhere 24 hours a day, wherever you see a Visa sign.
