Replace Card
ReplaceCard is a deprecated micro app. This topic provides information on the available Netspend API alternate.
The Replace card feature lets the account holder have their physical card replaced for a valid reason. The account holder confirms the delivery address, and confirms the card replacement.
| Micro App (Old) | Netspend API (New) |
|---|---|
| Replace Card (Deprecated) | Netspend API endpoint – POST​/cards​/physical The account holder needs to select the replacement card brand to get the card replaced. |
In this scenario, Sue already has a card (#1), but loses it and uses the partner app to report it as lost. The app gives her a couple of replacement options, and she selects one for order. When the replacement card arrives, she activates it.
Note: Closing the lost card should generally be done immediately to minimize any fraud related losses.
The steps that Sue takes are as below:
- Sue reports loss of card through partner app, which in turn calls POST /cards/{card_id #1}/close
Note: This is an optional step. Though not mandatory, it’s recommended to minimize any fraud related losses. - Sue gets a list of available replacement card brands through the partner app, which in turn calls GET /cards/brands/search.
- Sue selects a brand from the list and that in turn places an order for a replacement card POST /cards/physical.
