Thanks for the hint will check if an update is availble 🙏

Humphrey’s Café dat kan, omdat de terminal deze ziet als debitcard en dit blijkt nog wel eens een acceptatie probleem te geven. Maar daar zou deze creditcard (die door de terminal ook als zodanig wordt gezien) ook verandering in brengen dan. 🙂

What part of “no, this is not an official crédit card” and the fact that the card has “credit” printed on it am I missing?
In the Netherlands everything that is not a Maestro is called “creditcard”. Yes, even my Visa debit card.
But bunq catering to an international audience, sticking with country-specific terminology just adds confusion.

So I ask, what IS the difference between the bunq Travel
Card and the debit Matercard?

Maxime You are incorrect here. When you use your MasterCard debit card it is recognised as a MasterCard debit card by the terminal NOT as a MasterCard Credit Card. This is the reason Mastercard debit cards are often rejected by petrol pumps, rental car companies and hotels. The new card eliminates this as it will be recognised as a MasterCard Credit Card. Hope this helps!

Ricardo Use a online card, you can create more of them

Job I know how it works, but I already use it alot before online cards were there. So I never changed it, but now I'm forced 😭

Mich würde interessieren ob es ein grobes Datum gibt zu wann die Karte versandt wird! :) Urlaub steht ja bald an :-)

Mark Incorrect about what?
The visual is shown above with “credit” printed on the card.
And I live in NL so I know firsthand what I said.
If the travel card is a credit card, let’s just rewrite the FAQ and say “travel card=Mastercard credit card” without a credit line. Why make this more confusing than it is?

Mark Support can’t tell me. To me it looks like a debit card in disguise. So order this one and get rid of the other I suppose

Frans-Violet-Dragon

Maxime A credit card without a credit line is a debit card

Frans-Violet-Dragon

This is the answer from support; The only difference is that it works as a credit card but is still a debit card, this makes the card more acceptable by merchants 👍🏻

It seems like this is just like a MasterCard, but then simply better? Could I just deactivate my MasterCard and then order this travel card, with all the same features? + all the new features of the travel card?

Or is there’s something the MasterCard has that the travel card doesn’t?

Mark-Blue-Shark-3137357496

Salomon Well there are also some merchants that prefer debit cards to credit cards (Eg Post Office in Ireland) so I will keep both for maximum flexibility.

Hi. I set up my 3 cards before this Travel MasterCard was an option. I want this card and I'm happy to drop one of the extra cards so I remain with just 3 active cards.

Do I still get rinsed for 9 euros as punishment for having ordered 3 cards when I started Bunq because the Travel MasterCard hadn't existed then, or does removing 1 of my current 3 cards allow me to add the Travel MasterCard as third card for free?

Salomon-Grey-Leopard

Mark Ah alright. So the MasterCard is a debit card that you can use for some credit card things like online purchases, but the travel card is actually considered a real credit card?

Do you know if it has embossed numbers? I’ve come across situations in south east Asia where hotels won’t accept credit cards if they don’t have embossed characters (they will say it’s not real)

What I love about Bunq is that they have you fully ‘covered’ now with debit, credit and Maestro. Few banks offer this.
