What the Debit Card Security Panel Does

When you add a debit card to your account, the security settings panel activates automatically. From there, you can set a per-transaction cap, toggle online-purchase permissions, and switch on real-time SMS or in-app alerts for every charge. If something looks off, the card lock button freezes usage without removing the card from your wallet. Re-enabling takes a single PIN confirmation. All changes

are logged against your account session, so the audit trail is always current. This applies to debit cards used alongside GCash, Maya, and InstaPay — each payment method has its own permission layer inside the same dashboard.

HOW WE KEEP CARDS SAFE

Security Standards Behind Every Card Setting

The controls you see in your dashboard are backed by account-level security practices we maintain across all linked payment methods — debit cards, GCash, Maya, and InstaPay.

SSL Encryption

Every card detail you enter or update is transmitted over SSL-encrypted connections. No raw card data passes through an unencrypted layer at any point in the session.

KYC Card Verification

Before a debit card is approved for withdrawals, we run a KYC check that matches the card name to your verified account identity. This step blocks unauthorised card additions.

Session Binding

Card security changes are bound to your active login session. Any attempt to alter card settings from a new device triggers an OTP confirmation to your registered mobile number.

Audit Log

Every change to your card settings — limit adjustments, locks, alert toggles — is recorded with a timestamp. You can review the full history from the Security tab in your account.

Debit Card Security Terms You Should Know

These are the terms you will see most often inside the card security settings panel. Each one has a specific function — knowing what they mean helps you configure your account correctly.

What is a spend cap on a debit card?

A spend cap is a maximum amount you set for a single card transaction. Charges above that value are automatically declined until you manually raise or remove the cap.

What does card lock mean in account settings?

Card lock suspends all transaction permissions on a linked debit card without removing it from your wallet. You can reverse it with a PIN confirmation at any time.

What is KYC for a debit card?

KYC — Know Your Customer — is the identity check that matches your card's registered name to your verified account details. It runs once when you first add a new card for withdrawals.

What are real-time transaction alerts?

Transaction alerts are SMS or in-app notifications sent the moment your debit card records a charge. They let you spot unauthorised activity before it compounds.

What is OTP in the context of card security?

OTP — One-Time Password — is a short code sent to your registered mobile number to confirm sensitive changes, such as adding a new card or modifying security settings from a new device.

What does online-purchase permission control?

This toggle lets you allow or block your debit card from being used for online charges specifically. Turning it off does not affect ATM use or the card's status in your wallet.

Common Questions About Card Security Settings

These are the questions we hear most when players in Cebu City and elsewhere in the Philippines are setting up or adjusting their debit card security preferences.

Go to Account, then Security, then Card Settings. Select your linked debit card and toggle Transaction Alerts to on. Alerts will arrive via SMS to your registered number for every charge processed.

Yes. Each debit card in your wallet has its own independent spend cap. Open Card Settings, select the card you want to configure, and enter the per-transaction limit you want to apply.

Locking a debit card only affects that specific card. Your GCash, Maya, and InstaPay accounts operate on separate permission layers and remain fully active while the card is locked.

Any sensitive change to card permissions — including spend cap adjustments and card locks — triggers an OTP to your registered mobile. This confirms it is you making the change, not an unauthorised session.

Go to Wallet, select Add Payment Method, then Debit Card. Enter your card details and upload a clear photo of a valid ID that matches the card name. Our team reviews and approves the card once the details align.

Yes. The Security tab inside your account shows a full audit log — every card lock, spend cap change, and alert toggle with the date, time, and device that initiated each action.
