Useful information about your prepaid card

With your Cornèrcard, you have a means of payment that is accepted around the world and also functions as an electronic wallet. This is how it works with prepaid cards: load the card first and then pay.

 

Reload your card in real time

Load your prepaid card time and again as required – the cash paid in is available immediately:

  • at around 1,500 SBB automatic ticket machines in train stations throughout Switzerland (with cash or payment card)
  • in branches of k kiosk, Press & Books, avec (with cash or payment card)
  • online on the Cornèrcard Reload Portal (with payment card)

 

To load your card, you will need the barcode with the serial number, which you find on the back of your Cornèrcard prepaid card.

You can find all the ways to load your prepaid card here.

 

Card use

As soon as you have loaded the desired amount on your prepaid card, you can use the credit available on it anywhere in the world. Depending on your card type, there is also the option to withdraw cash from ATMs in Switzerland and abroad.

 

Transaction inquiry

You can easily query the current balance available on your prepaid card at any time:

  • online via iCornèr
  • with the iCornèr App on your smartphone
  • at any ATM in Switzerland
  • by telephone at +41 900 26 76 37 (CHF 1.40/min. from a landline)

 

Contactless payment with your Cornèrcard

Whether it’s for a newspaper at a kiosk or a coffee on the move: you can enjoy even more convenience when using your card with the contactless function as you can pay small amounts securely, reliably and quickly. Just hold up your Cornèrcard to the payment terminal, wait for the signal tone and that’s it.

It’s easy to activate the contactless function on your card by entering your PIN code when making your first payment.

The following symbols stand for contactless payment:

Mobile Payment

You can rely on your smartphone and your preferred mobile payment app, to pay with your Cornèrcard on the move.

Your card details will be confidential and secure


This is as simple as it is secure: as your card details are neither saved on your smartphone nor passed on to the retailer when paying. Instead, your data is converted into a fictitious number, a token.

CVV2/CVC2

The card verification number – called CVV 2 on Visa cards and CVC2 on Mastercard cards– is an additional security feature for payment cards. The number should prevent stolen credit card details from being used and makes online purchases even more secure.

The verification code consists of the last three digits on the signature strip on the back of your card.

 

Monthly statement

We do not send a monthly statement in paper form for Cornèrcard prepaid cards. Your statement will be issued in electronic form and is available at any time on icorner.ch and the iCornèr App.
