API Reference

Activate Physical Card

post
https://api.cloud.mbanq.com/v1/cards/

Use this API to activate a physical card that has been issued to a user. A physical card must be activated before it can be used for any transactions — including POS payments, ATM withdrawals, and online purchases.

Pass the card_id as a path parameter to identify the card, and include ACTIVATE_PHYSICAL as the command query parameter to trigger the activation.

Note: This endpoint is specifically for activating physical cards. Virtual cards follow a different activation flow.

A successful response confirms that the card is now active and ready for use.
