Why isn't my Zilch card working?

Card not working? Here's what to do.

Updated over 7 months ago

There are a few reasons your Zilch card might not be working. If your payment has gone through but was declined, head to our declined payments help page.

Zilch not working online

If you're having trouble making an online purchase for Zilch, please check you've entered the following card details correctly:

  • Your card number

  • Your card expiry date

  • Your CVV

  • Your name (as shown on the card)

Make sure you're using the latest version of your Zilch card, for example, if you saved your card to a browser but it's since expired.

Zilch not working in-store

Before you can use your Zilch card to pay in-store, you need to add it to your digital wallet. Zilch works with Apple Wallet, Google Wallet and Samsung Wallet.

If you're still having issues, please check that:

  • Your phone's NFC setting is turned on

  • You hold your phone steady

  • You're using your digital wallet correctly (unlocking your phone or entering a PIN)

Your Zilch account may also have a block on it if:

  • You recently signed up and need to verify your ID

  • You have outstanding payments

  • You reported fraud
