Wildcard: Maintenance Tips

Wildcard Maintenance Tips

Here are some important tips to prolong the useful life of your Wildcard:

  • Do not bend the card.
  • Do not puncture the card (for example, with a hole-punch).
  • Do not expose to extreme heat (for example, clothes dryer or car dashboard on a sunny day).
  • Do not keep your Wildcard with your phone while charging on a wireless charger.
  • Use a protective badge holder

Wireless charging uses magnetic induction to charge your mobile phone. You should not place anything between your phone and the charger. If you carry your Wildcard in a card-wallet or sleeve attached to your mobile phone, remove it before charging your phone. Putting your Wildcard into contact with a wireless phone charger will result in damage to the contactless chip or the magnetic stripe.
