# Order new card

### Step 1 - Name Your Card

Start by giving your card a unique name — this will help you identify it later (for example: *Bryan’s Card*).

Then, enter your phone number to enable SMS and OTP (One-Time Password) verification.

> ⚠️ The phone number must be entered without the leading zero (e.g., use *6 12 34 56 78* instead of *06 12 34 56 78*).

> The number must be exactly 9 digits.<br>

You can also preview your card design before confirming.

Tap Next to continue.

### Step 2 - Review Order Summary

Before finalizing, review your order details and the associated card fee.

You’ll see:

* Your card name and phone number
* The payment provider (Mastercard)
* The fee percentage (e.g. 1.8%)
* Your limits, such as:
  * Top-up limit
  * Monthly spend limit
  * Per transaction cap

You can also view your available USDC balance in your kardpay wallet.

### Step 3 - Confirm and Pay Card Fee

Once you’ve checked all the details, tap Pay Card Fee to confirm your order and create your virtual card.

> 💡 Note: The activation of your card is a separate step.

> You can activate it later by making a minimum top-up of $15.

### Step 4 - Card Creation Complete

After payment confirmation, your virtual card is generated and linked to your account.

You can now:

* View your card in the Card section
* Add funds from your Wallet
* Start using it for online or in-app purchases

### Tips

* Always double-check your phone number before validation.
* Make sure you have enough USDC balance to cover the card fee.
* Activation is required before your card can be used for payments.
* You can order multiple cards and manage them directly in the Card tab.
