About the card

The Sumeria card is a latest-generation payment card.

It is a Visa Debit card and is accepted worldwide by merchants and ATMs, whatever the currency.

It is funded with the money present on one of the customer's accounts.

The first card showcasing the Paris 2024 design is free for all customers.

Each additional card ordered and delivered costs €5 basic cards, €7 for standard cards, and €9 for black cards. Learn more.

The cards also have a virtual single-use version, to protect customers during their online shopping.

Cards benefits

Sumeria cards are:

Smart: customers can activate or block it at any time from the mobile app, or by logging in from a computer. From the mobile app, they can also unblock it, control their spending limits, turn on or off "contactless" payments, online payments, ATM withdrawals and transactions abroad.
Multi-account: customers can change the account debited with their card at any time from the account detail.
Perfect for trips abroad: no fees are incurred for customers using their card abroad, within applicable limits.
Customizable for all customers: customers get to choose what is written on the front of the card.

Before ordering a card

Here is what customers need to know:

The card works with the Sumeria application. It is funded with the money available on one of the customer's accounts. The application is available for free on iPhone and Android.
To start using the card, customers must open an account.

Types of transactions

The card can be used to:

pay in-store anywhere in France and abroad
make ATM withdrawals worldwide (except countries blacklisted by OFAC)

To protect customer funds, we turned off by default the card's "Online payments" option. To safely shop only, we recommend customers use Single-use payment cards. To find out more about the risks of shopping online using a classic bank card, tap here. Customers can turn on this option at any time.

Card settings

The card settings are accessible from the "Cards" menu available from the app home screen.

If the balance is not sufficient for a given transaction, it won't go through.

Note

In the event of a purchase made with a card (physical, contactless or virtual) and if the customer's balance is not sufficient, the payment will be declined.
