Activate your Wealthsimple Cash card

Before you can start spending with your physical Wealthsimple Cash card, you'll need to activate it and add funds to your account.

If you don't have a physical Wealthsimple Cash card yet, you can request one using the Wealthsimple app.

Tip: Your digital card gets activated as soon as you open a Cash account. You can access your digital card in the Wealthsimple app, and add it to your phone's wallet.

Activate your physical Wealthsimple Cash card

To activate your Wealthsimple Cash card directly from your app, follow these steps:

Log in to your Wealthsimple mobile app
From the Home tab, tap your Cash account
Tap the card icon at the top right of your screen and swipe to the left to navigate to your Physical card settings
Select Activate your card
Tap Get started
Enter in your card's Expiry date and CVV
Create a 4-digit PIN, confirm your PIN and then tap Set up your PIN
Your physical Wealthsimple card will then be activated

Note: Only your primary individual Cash account is spendable and has a card attached to it. If you don’t see the card icon, open your primary individual account and follow the steps above.

To activate your Wealthsimple Cash card over the phone, follow these steps:

Call +1 877-868-0854 to activate your card and set your PIN
Add funds to your account if you haven't already
Sync your PIN by using your physical card in person

Note: You need to sync your PIN within 365 days of getting your card. The best way to do this is by going to an ATM and performing a transaction — such as a balance check or withdrawal.
