Virtual card PINs: withdraw cash from ATMs using a virtual card!

Virtual cards are already among the easiest ways to pay online and contactlessly. They are fast to issue, simple to manage, and always available inside your Genome account. Our cards are becoming even more practical for everyday use!

We are happy to introduce PIN codes for virtual cards, available for personal and business wallet users starting from May 21st! This means that Genome clients can set a virtual card PIN and use their virtual cards for ATM withdrawals via Apple Pay, Google Pay, and Garmin Pay.

So, if you need cash but don’t have your physical card with you, no worries! You can use your tokenized virtual card to withdraw money at a contactless ATM that supports this option.

How virtual card ATM withdrawals work

The new feature makes your virtual card even more flexible. You can keep using it for online payments and contactless purchases, but it can also help you access cash when needed.

Here’s how it works:

1. Add your virtual card to a digital wallet. First, tokenize your business or personal virtual card by adding it to Apple Pay, Google Pay, or Garmin Pay. Just go to the Cards menu inside your Genome account and link a virtual card you want to use to the mobile wallet of your choosing. This is how you can use your phone or smartwatch for contactless payments and supported ATM transactions. If you don’t have a virtual card yet, you can order one online in just a few simple steps!

2. Set your virtual card PIN. While you’re on the same Cards menu inside your app or dashboard, you can set a PIN for your card. The virtual card PIN is necessary to confirm ATM withdrawals, just like with a physical card. Securely and easily!

3. Withdraw cash at a contactless ATM. Once your virtual card is added to a digital wallet and the PIN is set, you can use it at a contactless ATM that supports withdrawals via Apple Pay, Google Pay, or Garmin Pay.

Why use a virtual card for ATM withdrawals?

Access cash without a physical card

Don’t have Genome’s physical Visa debit card yet? Forgot your physical card at home? Prefer not to carry it with you? Your virtual card can be a useful backup.

As long as your virtual card is tokenized in Apple Pay, Google Pay, or Garmin Pay, you can use it to withdraw cash at supported contactless ATMs.

Make travel more convenient

Travel often comes with unexpected expenses. Sometimes, you need cash for transport, tips, small shops, local services, or places where card payments are not available.

With the new virtual card PIN feature, you can access cash using your phone or smartwatch. This makes your virtual card more useful during business trips, holidays, and everyday travel.

Keep a backup payment method ready

Having a virtual card in your digital wallet gives you an extra payment option. It can help when your physical card is unavailable, damaged, or simply not with you.

This is especially useful when you need quick access to funds and don’t want to rely on a single card.

Manage business travel expenses more easily

For business virtual card owners, this feature can also support travel-related expenses. You can use corporate virtual cards for contactless payments and supported ATM withdrawals during trips.

It can make it easier to cover practical on-the-go costs while keeping expenses connected to the company’s Genome account.
