debiX+ App

3D Secure is a security standard for online payments.

When making an online purchase, a risk check is performed in the background. If additional authentication (confirmation by the card holder) is required to complete a transaction, you will be asked to confirm the payment using the debiX+ app or an SMS code. 

Many online stores require 3D Secure.

If you use the new debit card for online purchases, we recommend registering with 3D Secure – provided your bank supports it. 

To register, you need your bank’s debit card, the debiX+ app on your smartphone, and the registration code (OTRC).

Proceed as follows:

• Download the app.
• Register.
• Add your debit card. To do this, enter the card data and the registration code (OTRC) you received from your bank. 

Not all online purchases have to be additionally confirmed with the app. This depends on the merchant, the amount and the card holder.

Reasons for this include:

• The merchant does not use 3D Secure.
• If you buy from the same online merchant on a regular basis, you may not be required to confirm your transactions any further based on your payment history.

If the debiX+ app is unavailable (no network reception, uninstalled), you will usually receive an SMS code. Please do not share this code with anyone.

The sender of the SMS message is “3D Secure.” Besides the SMS code for the payment, you will also see the amount, currency and merchant information. 

There are various reasons why a transaction cannot be executed:

• Technical error
• Wrong password entered in the app
• Biometric data in the app was not recognized several times
• SMS code was entered incorrectly on the website
• The risk check we performed in the background (over 200 rules) resulted in the transaction being canceled

Try again or contact your bank’s customer support.

You will receive push notifications about transactions on all devices where you have the app installed and where you logged in.

For security reasons, notifications asking you to check and confirm a payment are only ever sent to the “active device”, i.e., where you last logged in.

If the debit card is blocked, it cannot be debited. The payment will not be made even if you have confirmed this payment with the debiX+ app.

If the payment was made successfully, you will see the debit as an entry in the transaction overview in the app. Payments that have been declined or are unsuccessful are not displayed in the transaction overview.

Rejected payments are not displayed in the transaction overview.

Unfortunately, this is a known bug that will be fixed with a new release in mid-November 2023. In the meantime, simply log in to the debiX+ app before making an online payment. You will then see the confirmation screen and can confirm the payment.

With your e-mail address/password and SMS security link or with your biometric data (fingerprint/Face ID/Touch ID). You need to make sure that you can receive the SMS message to the mobile phone number you have registered on the device.

Directly in the app via “Profile” and “Login and security.”

If you have not yet recorded biometric data, you can do so in the device settings. 

• Check your device’s network reception.
• Make sure that the flight mode is not activated.
• Check the settings of your network provider if you are abroad and make sure that:
  - SMS messages can be received abroad.
  - Your network provider allows SMS messages from short numbers abroad.
• Request a new security link via “Request new security link”.
• Wait a few minutes as the delivery may be delayed.
• Contact your bank’s customer support if the problem persists.
• You need to make sure that you can receive the SMS message to the mobile phone number you have registered on the device.

Yes, you can use your e-mail address and password to log in on another device. On the other device, make sure that you can receive text messages to the mobile phone number stored in your debiX+ profile.

Note: Only one user can log in per device at a time. If another user is or was already logged in, you will need to reinstall the app to be able to log in.

If you have clicked on the wrong security link in the SMS message or entered your password incorrectly (in combination) too many times, your account will be locked for security reasons. Your account will be locked for a short period of time (a few minutes) and you will receive an e-mail when you can log in again.

Contact customer support if your account has been locked but you have not received an e-mail message.

Click on “Login with password” and then “Change password?”

Enter your e-mail address so that we can e-mail you a confirmation code with the subject “Change password.” Make sure that the actual sender is noreply-debix@six-group.com. Enter this code in the app. You can then set your new password and log in.

Only one user can log into the app per device at a time. Delete the debiX+ app and reinstall it to log in with another user.

It happens for security reasons:

• Biometric login failed multiple times
• Biometric settings on your device
• Your user account is blocked
• System precaution

Check in the app if biometrics is really switched on: Profile > Login and security > Setup biometrics > Switch to the right (dark grey).

So that you can benefit from the latest features and for security reasons. If an update is necessary, you will receive a prompt when you log in to the app. 

You receive it for security reasons.

If this was not you, change your password immediately on the login page in the “Change password?” section. Make sure that you opened the debiX+ application first.

If you see transactions in the debiX+ application that do not belong to you, please do the following:

1. Remove all cards from your debiX+ profile under “Card” in the “Options” menu, “Remove card”.
2. Call the customer support at the number on your debit card or in the debiX+ app under “Block Card” and have all of your cards blocked. Customer support will be able to explain the next steps to you.

Important: You will need a new OTRC code to be able to save your replacement card(s) back in the debiX+ app and to confirm online payments with it.

Make sure that you can open the security link in the debiX+ app.

iOS: Press and hold your finger on the LINK received via SMS. A pop-up window will then open. Now select "Open in debiX+".

Android: Under "Settings", "Apps", "debiX+", select "Set as default" and activate "Open supported links" (from Android 12).

When you see the “Add Card” button in your app, you can easily add the card to the wallet. The advantage is that you do not have to enter the card data from the app. After that, you can pay with the wallet instead of the physical card.

Requirements: Your bank offers this service and your phone supports Apple, Samsung, or Google Wallet.

Do you have an Apple Watch or Android wearable that connects to your smartphone? The button does not disappear until the debit card is saved in the wallet on your smartphone and wearable.

Yes, the digital card in the wallet will remain active. You can continue to pay with the wallet.

No, this is not possible because the digital card is also blocked.

Yes, you can withdraw cash from the ATMs with all wallets.

Hold your wallet or wearable device up to the NFC panel on the ATM. Enter your physical debit card PIN at the ATM and select the cash withdrawal option. Cash withdrawals are only available in CHF.

Currently, you can use the two functions: “Cash withdrawal in CHF” and “Balance query.” 

The “Balance query” function displays the current limit of the debit card.

To change or unblock your PIN, you must insert the physical debit card into the ATM for security reasons.

If you save your debit card with Netflix, for example, or in a wallet such as Apple Pay for mobile payments, your debit card will automatically be digitalized. This may also be the case when paying in an online shop or for other subscription services.

It eliminates the need to type in your card details when you make purchases, saving you time. You can also use the debit card for recurring payments.

When the debit card is digitalized, the sensitive card data is encrypted and turned into a type of “secret code” known as a token. To protect against misuse or data theft, only the token is saved instead of the sensitive card data. It can then be used to process future and/or recurring transactions.

Find out more on our digital debit cards page.

Either your digital debit cards have been deleted or you have not saved your digital debit cards with any online shops or wallets that offers the digitalization process.

STRIPE is an online payment service that performs payments for other online vendors. If you have a STRIPE digital debit card, your card is registered with an online vendor that uses this online payment service. In this case, we do not know the name of the vendor.

Block the physical debit card. The digital cards do not need to be blocked. Payment with the digital card does not work because the associated physical card is blocked.

In the “Overview of online shops and wallets,” only the online shops that encrypt the debit card and save it as a token are displayed. This process is more secure than saving the card data with the retailer. For this reason, more and more retailers are digitalizing debit cards. This will be the norm in the future.

It is a secure process. You can avoid this by choosing not to save your card with any online retailers or in any wallets.

A wallet is a payment app that is used for mobile payments. You save the debit card once and can then pay using your smartphone or smartwatch. Further information can be found here.

Online purchases with 3D Secure represent a one-time process. When making an online purchase, a risk check is performed in the background. If additional authentication (confirmation by the card holder) is required to complete a transaction, you will be asked to confirm the payment using the debiX+ app or an SMS code. No information is saved.

Note: If you extend a hotel stay, for example, the final amount may be higher than the original reservation. 

Reservations remain in the transaction list even if the final booking has already been made and the reservation is no longer valid. This is a limitation.

You will not receive push notifications on your smartphone for the corresponding debit card when you use it to make a transaction.

However, you will still receive notifications for online purchases made with 3D Secure.

Yes, you will still be notified to confirm online purchases. This assumes that the merchant supports 3D Secure.

On the other hand, if you use the debit card to make another transaction (such as a payment at a local store or a cash withdrawal at an ATM), you will not be notified. You can always see a list of transactions in the app as well, regardless of whether you want to be notified or not. 

You can set up the amount at which you want to be notified by push under the card in the menu “Options” – “Notifications”  You can set the limit in increments of 10 up to CHF 1,000.

If a transaction is classified as (potentially) fraudulent, your card will be blocked immediately and you will be notified immediately via push message. You can call up all notifications in the app in the inbox under "Profile".

Please check the transaction. In the app, you have the option of confirming whether or not you made the transaction yourself.

If you acknowledge the transaction, your card will be unblocked immediately. However, if you did not carry out the transaction, your card will remain blocked. You will need to order a replacement card.

Otherwise, you can use the debit card as usual.

Yes. You can register again (either with the same user data or with different data, e.g. a different e-mail address or cell phone number).

If you want to save the debit card to a new profile, you will need a new registration code (OTRC) from your bank. You can also get this directly from customer support (telephone number on the debit card).
