Online or directly in stores, it is very easy to shop. With the card or with the phone, it is just as simple to pay for everything you have bought. However, we have a few tips to keep your money safe.
When you pay in stores at POS with card/phone:
- You must receive a receipt for each approved/rejected transaction.
- Check the transactions often. You can do it, for example, through BT Pay or BT Visual Help.
- For contactless card payments up to 100 lei, you are not asked for your PIN. If you have made consecutive transactions totaling over 650 lei or 150 EUR without entering the PIN, the code will be requested at the next transaction even if the amount is under 100 lei, for security reasons. For payments with the phone, this measure does not apply because these payments are authorized each time with a fingerprint, face ID, or your phone's security method.

- Trading limits can be modified through the BT applications or with the help of the Call Center team (0264 308 028). You can set the limits based on types of operations: payment at POS in stores, online payment, ATM withdrawal, and by total number of transactions. You can also choose the time interval on which you want to limit the transactions.
Don't forget:
- Do not communicate never card data following the receipt of some SMS/email/call links. The card data is entered when you have started a purchase on a trusted website, on the payment page.
- Do not offer the bank card details to receive money. If someone needs to send you money, you must provide them with the IBAN code. Providing card details and codes received via SMS actually gives the possibility of having money taken from your account, not of receiving it.
- Be careful about information regarding lotteries, donations through links from social networks etc., messages through which you are informed that you have won something and to receive the product of significant value you must pay a negligible amount for shipping, to the messages through which you are informed that to receive a package (which you neither ordered nor are expecting) you must pay a fee. Analyze very carefully the offers that seem very advantageous, they can be scams. All these methods are traps that can make you give fraudsters your card details and security passwords to actually authorize transactions on various websites for much larger amounts.
