Hey guys

Anyone who recently got a credit card online

Can you use it contactless straight away and if not how long did yours take to come?

Thanks

Don't most need one use with a PIN to activate contactless?

Yes all new cards need a PIN at first use.

You can use Zilch straightaway! It's a digital credit card which splits payments into 4 and you can use it anywhere, even on Apple Pay. It just takes 25% of the cost from your debit card and takes the rest in instalments. Here's my referral link for an extra £5 zilch.onelink.me/sOUJ/psaqu7q1

No but you can set up online banking and view your pin on most cc and then you can use it online once you’ve used it with your pin in a shop.

If you have a Monzo bank account, you can open their credit card called Flex.

You will be able to view the card details immediately in the app, enabling you to use it online, or add to Apple pay or Google wallet.
