Here we go! As of 10 p.m. on July 6, you can activate your UNI debit card. Make a first transaction at a sales outlet or at one of our ATMs with your new 4-digit PIN received by mail.
You’ll then be able to use it online and make contactless transactions.
You can change your PIN at any of our ATMs, after activating your new card.
Go to a branch or call our Client Contact Centre at
1-888-359-1357 to get a temporary PIN.

As part of the transition, UNI is migrating the accounts and profiles of all members and clients to the new financial and transactional platform. As a result, you received a new debit card and a new PIN in the mail to be able to make transactions after 10 p.m. on July 6, 2023.
You will be able to activate your new card with your new PIN as of 10 p.m. on July 6. To do so, you will need to make an initial Interac transaction at a merchant’s or go to an ATM and enter the (4) four-digit Personal Identification Number (PIN) you received in the mail. Note that after this first transaction, you will be able to use your debit card online and complete your contactless transactions. If you wish, you can change the PIN as of Monday, July 10.
Your old debit card was automatically renewed. The one you received is therefore a replacement for that card.
If you received a new debit card (white or blue), it is linked to your UNI accounts. You are able to activate your new card with your new PIN. To do so, you need to make an initial Interac transaction at a merchant’s or go to an ATM and enter the (4) four-digit PIN you received in the mail. Note that after this first transaction, you will be able to use it online and complete your contactless transactions. If you wish, you can change this PIN.
