# Card Replacement

There are two different actions related to card replacement: **deleting a card** and **replacing a card**. These actions behave differently.

#### Deleting a card

If you **delete your card**:

* the card becomes permanently disabled
* no new card is issued automatically
* you must manually create a new card if you want to continue using card payments

To create a new card after deletion:

1. Open **Cards**
2. Tap **Add new card**
3. Follow the card issuance flow

The newly created card will have **new card details (PAN, expiration date, and CVV)**.

***

#### Replacing a card

If you choose **Replace card**:

* a **new card is issued automatically**
* the new card receives **a new PAN, expiration date, and CVV**
* the previous card becomes permanently inactive

Replacement is typically used when a card is compromised or needs to be rotated.

Any existing mobile wallet versions of the previous card will stop working and must be added again.

#### Important

Deleting a card and replacing a card are **not the same action**:

* **Delete card** → no new card is issued automatically
* **Replace card** → a new card is issued immediately with new card details
