Request your PIN

Once you’ve received your new card, you have up to 60 days to check the new card’s PIN in KBC Brussels Mobile, where you can view it until you change it or request a new one.

1. Log in to KBC Brussels Mobile
2. Tap ‘My KBC’
3. Scroll to ‘Means of payment’ and select your new card
4. Tap ‘Manage PIN’
5. Tap ‘View PIN’ and follow the instructions

Your PIN is not saved on your phone, so you’ll need to repeat the steps above to view it again.

Text your personal number combination to 2446. This combination consists of your date of birth (in the form ddmmyyyy) and the four digits appearing in the letter accompanying your payment card. So, your text message should only contain 12 digits. Do not include any additional words, spaces, digits or full stops.

We will then text you the PIN required for activating your card. You can change the PIN afterwards again at any ATM. For security reasons, delete the message containing your PIN as quickly as possible.

Text messages sent by KBC Brussels are free of charge. When you text us, you only pay what your mobile operator charges for a text message.

In that case, clearly indicate when applying for your card that you want the PIN to be posted to your home address. Once you receive it, you can choose a new PIN at a KBC Brussels ATM.

Additional information is provided below for text messages you might receive from us.
