CIBC Costco Mastercard Login : How do I activate my new CIBC credit card?
You can activate your new credit card through CIBC Online or Mobile Banking. Simply select Activate Card from the Credit section of My Accounts in CIBC Online Banking, or from the main navigation menu in CIBC Mobile Banking, and follow the steps to activate.
For your security, cards are not active until you activate them. This is to prevent unauthorized use before the card reaches you.
How do I activate my new CIBC credit card?
You can activate any CIBC credit card through Online or Mobile Banking. Each cardholder on the account must activate their own card.
Once you successfully complete the steps to activate, your card is active right away and ready for use. Remember to sign the back of your new card, and to update any merchants that have your card on file for pre-authorized payments if your credit card information has changed.
After you activate your new card, don’t forget to destroy your old card to keep your account secure
Your card number and expiry date will not change, so pre-authorized payments will not be interrupted
However, if your card expires within 9 months of requesting a placement, your new card will have the same number, but a new expiry date. In this case, you’ll need to update your pre-authorized payments with the new expiry date. This only applies to the primary cardholder.
