How long does it take to activate my account and my card?

You have collected your Nickel Classic card directly from a Nickel point of sale: 

You can use your account and your card as soon as you've collected your card at a tobacconist or Nickel Point of Sale.
Your secret PIN card code is sent to you free of charge and immediately by SMS to the phone number you declared when you opened your account.
 

You have received your card by post: 

Upon receipt of your card, you can activate it directly on your Customer Space online or Nickel App. If you had another Nickel card before, it remains active until your new card is activated.
