● FAQ

All you need to know

Where are Circula’s cards accepted?

Circula offers VISA credit cards, which are accepted by over 80 million merchant locations in over 200 countries. Learn more about VISA here.

Does Circula support Visa 3D Secure?

3D Secure is a free service facilitated by VISA that lets you transact securely on “Verified by Visa“ / “Visa Secure” online merchants using your Circula credit cards. It adds a security layer by an additional verification step. During this verification you must provide a one-time password that is only available to you.

All Circula x Pliant credit cards are automatically equipped with 3D Secure. During your online purchase you will receive the one-time password via SMS, mobile app, or e-mail for the verification. This password you can input into the verification page that will show the Visa logo and confirm the payment by clicking confirm / send. If the password is correct, the transaction will be successful and otherwise declined. Pliant credit cards also work at merchants that do not participate in Visa 3D secure program.

This service is offered due to the EU’s Second Payment Services Directive (PSD2) which will mandate Strong Customer Authentication (SCA) before initiation of the payment. Therefore, Visa recently enhanced its security for online purchases including both e-commerce and m-commerce transactions to satisfy this new standard.

In case you are not receiving your one-time password, please check that your phone and / or e-mail address are up to date within your user area or call our hotline.

Is Circula secure?

Circula assigns security and data protection the highest priority. Access to the Pliant partner platform is secured by strong passwords and two-factor-authentication. All personal data is stored in accordance with the European General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR). Critical card data are stored and processed in line with the very high data security standards of the payment card industry (PCI DSS). Additionally, Circula's cards are enabled for 3DS to ensure additional protection for online purchases.

What are the exchange rates?

If you use Circula cards for online purchases in a foreign currency, Circula applies the current VISA exchange rate and charges a 2% mark-up on VISA conversion rates.

Does Circula offer debit cards as well as credit cards?

No, all our cards are real credit cards.

What are corporate credit cards and how can they be used?

Corporate credit cards are intended for business expenses and are issued by the employer to employees. Although these credit cards are personalised in the employee's name, they can only be used in a professional context, e.g. for hotel and flight bookings and car hire on business trips. However, they can also be used as a means of payment for recurring expenses, e.g. for software licences or online marketing.
