How do I activate my Wells Fargo debit card?

Once you apply for a new debit card for your Wells Fargo account, you will receive it within the next 5 to 7 business days. However, receiving the debit card is not enough as you need to perform some activities after you have received it. Although you can demand the Wells Fargo bank executive to set an on-demand PIN for your debit card, however, if you don’t do so, then you will get a card with a system-generated PIN. You can easily change this PIN directly from your Wells Fargo online account. But, for this, you must know your Wells Fargo login details.

On the other hand, if you have applied for a replacement card, you do not need to change its PIN as you can use your existing PIN with it. So, in the section given below, we shall discuss the process to set a new PIN for the new or replacement Wells Fargo debit card. In case you have received your debit card via mail, then also you need to change its PIN. So, let’s get started right away.

Steps to change your debit card PIN

• At first, you need to go to the online portal of Wells Fargo
• Here, you need to log in with your Wells Fargo login details
• You can also use the Wells Fargo Mobile app to change your PIN
• Or, you can dial the number given on the back of the debit card
• And, follow the prompts that appear on your screen

Conclusion:
