Misplaced your card? No worries – just lock your card.
Using the Mobile App
This simple and easy feature is a toggle button available in the Manage Account menu on the Mobile App.
Using the Latitude Service Centre
If you don't use our Mobile App, you can also temporarily lock your card online via the Latitude Service Centre under the Manage My Account section.
When this feature is toggled on, transactions will be blocked from taking place on your primary card and account. Once you have your card back - you can toggle it off and you are back in action.
What transactions are blocked?
The lock generally prevents transactions including:
• Most card transactions (including contactless, online, and digital wallet)
• Promotional offers
• ATM transactions
• May also prevent some recurring instalments and scheduled transactions.
Note: Ongoing arrangements (such as direct debits) may potentially go through while the card is locked.
Additional cardholders
This lock will temporarily block most transactions on your primary card only (which is linked to your Latitude ID). It will not block transactions for your additional cardholder.
