How Do I Activate My US Bancorp Card?

Bancorp has its headquarters in Wilmington. It is one of the largest banks in Delaware and ranks 218th largest in the country. The company has over 500 employees.

You will receive a Bancorp Bank card a short while after you have accepted to become a member and ready to use their services. It will be sent via mail and once you get it, you will have to activate the card.

There are several ways through which you can activate a Bancorp Bank card. You can either do it online, via phone or using the Bancorp Bank app.

Activating Your Card Online

The process of activating your Bancorp Bank card online is relatively straightforward. It often just takes a few minutes to activate the card.

Activating your card online includes the following steps:

1. You will need to first head to Bancorp Bank website's card activation page.
2. Enter the 16-digit card number at the front of your card when prompted.
3. Enter your name as written on the card, your social security number, your date of birth and three-digit security code located on the signature panel at the back of the card. The above details are meant to ascertain your identity.
4. You will then be asked to input a four-digit pin. Select one and write it down elsewhere for backup.
5. Based on the email address you submitted, you should receive confirmation details verifying the activation within several minutes. Use the link in the email to ensure that the card is indeed activated.

Activating Your Card via Phone

Activating your Bancorp Bank card via phone is just as easy as doing it online. The first step to activating your card via phone is to look for the card activation number. It will be located on a sticker on the front of the card.

The format of the card activation number will depend on the type of Bancorp Bank card you have. For example, debit and credit cards will have different number formats.

You should call the number associated with your Bancorp Bank account. The reason is so that they can partially recognize you and your inactivated card.

You may be prompted by the automatic voice command to input your four-digit pin. If more information is needed, then you will be requested to submit the same information as you would online. The key is to carefully listen to the voice prompts.

After you follow the instructions successfully, then the system will notify you when and if the card is activated and ready for use.

Try and test the card soon after to prove that it has been successfully activated.
