What should I do with my old Nickel card?

If you already had a Nickel card, once your new card has been activated, destroy the old one to prevent fraudulent use. Because even if we deactivate your old card, the personal data stored on the chip can easily be hijacked and misused. So we recommend that you cut up the card and chip into several pieces, then dispose of the pieces in different garbage cans.

Si vous aviez déjà une carte Nickel, une fois votre nouvelle carte activée, détruisez l’ancienne carte afin d’en éviter toute utilisation frauduleuse. Car même si nous désactivons votre ancienne carte, les données personnelles enregistrées dans la puce peuvent être facilement détournées et utilisées à mauvais escient. Alors on vous conseille de découper la carte et la puce en plusieurs morceaux, puis de jeter les morceaux dans différentes poubelles.
