Sarva Bhowma Hey 👋 every Mastercard bunq offers, Digi or physical, is a real credit card. But you don’t have to mind about that, because they are all like Debitcards in your everyday usage. You can’t spend money you don’t have and the amount is debited directly from your account. But you can use them for hotel reservations or car rentals just like “real” credit cards, that’s the good thing. Hope that helps!

Hi Thijs,
DigiCards are all DEBIT Master Cards.
They work exactly as Credit Card but they will be recognized from vendors as DEBIT. So if vendor needs a Credit Card, the DigiCards could not work.

Sarva,
DigiCards are all debit cards. If you need a Credit Card "pronto" you can create a standard Master Card one via the bunq App (please understand if your credit card is within your plan or you might need to pay extra) and via Apple Pay or Google Pay start using it immediately... or just on line with the Credit Card details you find in the App once the card is created and assigned to you.

Good luck 🍀

Markus Hi 👋 Markus,
Unless is a bunq bug 🐞, DigiCards are DEBIT (how the vendor sees it):

Thank you for the information.
I just realised that the vendor is not accepting Mastercard also instead they are only accepting mastero

Sarva Bhowma Hi 👋 Sarva,
I believe you meant Maestro.
Maestro is a masterCard Debit card which is mostly used in NL and works on the Maestro circuit and also on the MasterCard circuit globally.
For on line purchases Maestro is not used.
In NL most of the shops in non touristic hotspot accept more often only Maestro rather than Mastercard Credit/Debit non Maestro.
You can get a Maestro card within bunq App.
Hope this helps 🌈

Markus Ok,
I think I know what is the deal. The DigiCard I had was done some time ago… either bunq or Mastercard changed it and now, after creating a new DigiCard I got a CREDIT one ✅
Thanks 🙏
