      Any questions?

      In principle, a digital debit or credit card is used like a traditional bank card. Unlike a physical card, the digital card does not exist in a plastic form, and transactions are carried out directly through the app or a digital wallet.

      With a credit card you can also make purchases even if you don't have the money available. The corresponding amount will only be debited the next month.

      A debit card enables transactions using your available account balance. Payments and withdrawals are immediately debited from here.

      With the prepaid card you deposit a sum of money that is considered a credit. Payments are deducted from here and are not necessarily tied to the current account.

      You can pay with your virtual BBVA debit card while you wait for your physical debit card. Simply register it in a digital payment app.

      To shop online with your BBVA debit card, enter the card number, expiry date, and dynamic CVV from the BBVA app. For in-store payments, open your digital wallet, select the BBVA debit card, and hold your phone near the card reader for instant payment.

      For cash withdrawals without a physical card, BBVA offers two options in retail stores:

      With Cash via App you can easily withdraw cash for free at participating supermarkets. Generate a barcode in the BBVA app, show it at checkout, and withdraw the desired amount.

      Cash via App is currently available in Germany at the following retail partners:

      • REWE
      • Rossmann
