Activate Card

Use the /activate endpoint to activate a card associated with an account.

📘
This endpoint should only be used to activate 'Physical-Only' cards and 'Digital-First' reissued cards. **Do not** use this endpoint for the initial Digital-First card associated with an account (upon account creation) OR for Digital-First replacement cards. See Activating Cards for more information.

Important things to note:

  • Only cards with an emboss status of 'sent_to_emboss' can be activated.
  • Do not use this endpoint to change a card's status, instead use the Update Card Status endpoint.
  • After successfully calling this endpoint, the card's status will be updated to 'Active.'
  • Accounts should only be associated with one active card at a time.
