What is PaysafeCard and how does it work?

Copied to clipboard

PaysafeCard is a widely accepted prepaid voucher which allows you to securely pay online. It helps you to reduce your risk of identity theft or payment fraud since the voucher is not linked to any of your personal or financial information. Instead, you pay by using the 16-digit PIN code printed on your PaysafeCard.

How do I buy a PaysafeCard prepaid code?

You can easily purchase a PaysafeCard online via our designated PIN shop located within the PaysafeCard account area. If you don’t hold a PaysafeCard account yet, you can sign up via this link. To buy a PaysafeCard code visit the PIN shop tab of your PaysafeCard, then click on the ‘’Buy online’ button. Choose the voucher amount and payment method then complete your purchase. You can learn more about each payment method by clicking on the info icon next to it. You can also find each purchased PIN in the ‘’Online PINs’’ section of your account.

You can also buy a prepaid code from one of our physical distributors. You can find a nearby sales outlet by using our store finder. If you are buying a physical voucher you can pay by using cash or via POS using your credit/debit card. If the store staff is not familiar with PaysafeCard, please refer them to our sales guide.

Important information:

When purchasing a physical PaysafeCardin Italy, your tax ID will be required. As of May 9, 2023, the tax ID used to purchase PaysafeCard prepaid codes must match the tax ID associated with your PaysafeCard account. This means that you will no longer be able to top up your account with a code purchased with a different tax ID (e.g. from a friend or family member).

How do I pay with PaysafeCard?

Once you buy a PaysafeCard you can redeem it at any online shop by simply choosing PaysafeCard at their check out page, then entering the 16-digit PIN code printed on your voucher. If you need to make a larger payment than your PaysafeCard balance, you can combine multiple PaysafeCards during the checkout process. If your PaysafeCard has remaining balance, it will still be available for future payments however, a monthly maintenance fee will be applied if you don’t spend your voucher within 30 days of its purchase.

If you own a PaysafeCard account and have topped up your PIN in your account balance, you can also pay by using your PaysafeCard credentials. If you don’t hold a account yet, you can sign up via this link. Using an account allows you to benefit from higher payment limits, store all your PaysafeCard prepaid codes in a single balance, and avoid the voucher`s monthly service fee.
