PRESS RELEASE

The NEW LINX VISA DEBIT CARD IS HERE​

Finally, after months of speculation the long awaited, more secure LINX Visa debit card is here! And it is presently being rolled out by our Member banks.

LINX and Visa have collaborated to develop the first dual branded local debit chip card. This VISA chip offers a higher level of safety and flexibility in how you can use your LINX debit card here in Trinidad and Tobago to buy, pay, check your balance or withdraw cash.

It’s known by many names: One Card, VISA debit, LINX VISA debit, LINX card, ATM card, to name a few. No matter the name, this is your familiar and trusted LINX debit card.

It’s easy and simple to identify: all you need to do is flip the card over to look for the familiar LINX logo on the back. Remember: VISA on the front. LINX on the back.

And, importantly, it will continue to carry the same low fees as before.

The new LINX VISA DEBIT CARD features three new innovative pluses:

  1. Chip technology for added security
    Chip technology provides an additional layer of encrypted security for your card. And using it is so easy! At Point of Sale terminals, which accept chip cards, simply insert your card into the terminal, chip first, and then enter your PIN. Now you can proceed with your transaction.
  2. Contactless capability for greater speed. Look out for the contactless sign at Merchants everywhere. This will allow you to carry out your smaller purchases with just a quick tap. No need to insert your card.. Once the transaction is under the TT$300.00 value, simply tap your card close to or on these identified terminals, advise the cashier whether it is your chequing or savings account and you’re all done.
  3. Local E-commerce. Soon you’ll be able to use your card for local online (e-commerce) purchases or payments. Check with your bank to find out which local merchants have online sites that accept  your LINX VISA debit card payments


The LINX VISAdebit card 
Always there for all of us
