Configure Account Debit Cards
How to configure account debit cards in the viva banking app.
Overview
Viva offers three types of merchant debit cards:
- Company debit cards – these are traditional ‘business cards’, tied to the Viva merchant account
- Employee debit cards – these are cards issues to individual employees
- Personal debit cards – these are for personal Viva accounts (Greece only)
Creating & ordering cards
Company debit cards
These cards are tied to the ‘blue’ Viva merchant account and use funds from your Primary wallet. They can be either physical or digital.
You can order (for physical) or create (for digital) company debit cards from the right-hand side of the main Dashboard:
After clicking on the ‘Create Card’ button, you will see two options – Digital and Physical:
Clicking on Digital takes you to the creation screen. Here, you can create your new card instantly:
Alternatively, clicking on Physical takes you to the order screen. Here, you can select the name to apply to the card, as well as the delivery address:
Employee debit cards
These cards are tied to the employee, rather than the account itself. They can be either physical or digital.
You can order (for physical) or create (for digital) employee debit cards from the right-hand side of the main Dashboard, under the ‘Viva Employee Debit’ heading:
Clicking on the ‘Order’ button takes you to the order screen, in which you choose which employee(s) you wish to order cards for:
Scrolling down, you then need to select which address(es) to send the cards to, before completing your order:
Personal debit cards
These cards are available for ‘orange’ Personal accounts (in Greece only). They can be either physical or digital.
You can order (for physical) or create (for digital) personal debit cards from the right-hand side of the main Dashboard, in the same way as for company debit cards.

Physical cards need to be activated before they can be used. To do this, first click on the ‘Activate Card’ button on the dashboard:
