If your card was sent to an incorrect address, please contact customer support for assistance.

8. How do I lock my card? 

If you would like to temporarily lock your card, open the KuCard mobile app.

Locking your card prevents new transactions from being made. When you’re ready to use your card, then unlock it by following the steps above and toggling this feature off. 

 

9. Can I use KuCard to withdraw cash from an ATM?

Yes, you can use the KuCard to withdraw cash from an ATM, and KuCoin will convert funds from your Funding account to process the withdrawal. Please note that withdrawals will be charged a fee.

 

10. Why isn't the contactless feature of my KuCard working?

If you notice the contactless feature of your KuCard is not working, there are a few possible reasons:

 

Terminal Compatibility: Some card terminals might not support contactless payments. Verify that the terminal is contactless-enabled.

First Use Protocol: For your first contactless transaction, use your card's chip and PIN. This step is necessary to activate its contactless function.

Contactless Limit: If you haven't entered your PIN after several contactless transactions, you may have reached the contactless limit. Entering your PIN during a transaction will reset this limit, allowing for contactless payments again.

Card Damage: Should you suspect any damage to your card that might be affecting its functionality, please deactivate your current card and request a new KuCard through our customer support. Be prepared for the delivery wait time.

 

11. Will my KuCard be suspended if my KuCoin account is suspended?

Your KuCard technically remains active, but any transactions will fail since your KuCoin account is suspended.
