Terminate Card

Use this API to permanently terminate a card. Once terminated, the card is irreversibly closed and can no longer be used for any transactions. This action cannot be undone.

Termination is typically used when a cardholder closes their account, a card is confirmed stolen, or the card is no longer needed. Unlike suspension, termination is a permanent action — a new card must be issued if the cardholder needs continued access.

Pass the cardIdForTerminate as a path parameter to identify the card, and set the command query parameter to TERMINATE.

Warning: This is a permanent and irreversible operation. Ensure the correct cardIdForTerminate is provided before proceeding.

A successful API response indicates the termination request was accepted. To confirm the card's actual updated status, subscribe to the webhook below.
