Ways to Activate Your Card: Choose Your Weapon (of Choice)
1. Unleash the Power of Internet Banking:
- Calling all Internet Banking veterans! You know the drill. Log in, find the "Manage My Accounts" section (because adulting, am I right?), and select "Activate New Card." Enter your card number, and boom! You're in business (literally).
2. Become a Mobile Banking Master:
- Got the Bank of Melbourne app on your phone? Excellent! This is where your inner app warrior shines. Sign in, navigate to the "Services" tab (think of it as your digital utility belt), and under "My Cards," select "Activate a Card." Enter your card number and watch your plastic pal come alive!
Important Note: If you're new to the internet or mobile banking world (welcome!), you'll need to register before you can activate your card. Don't worry, it's a quick and painless process.
QuickTip: Look for patterns as you read.
Uh Oh! Activation Woes? Don't Panic!

Remember: Activating your card is usually only required once. Unless, of course, you're secretly Agent 007 and your cards are as expendable as your tuxedos (in which case, we commend your dedication to saving the world, but maybe consider a more sustainable card activation strategy).
