What cards can I add to my Común account?

You can add up to 2 debit cards during the first 60 days of using your account, as long as they meet these requirements:

  • They are valid debit cards (not expired)

  • Issued in the United States 🇺🇸

  • Under your name (same name as your Común account)

  • Able to send and receive money

👉 We do not accept credit cards, prepaid cards, or other types of cards.


Why is my card being rejected?

Here are the most common reasons and how to fix them 👇

  • You reached the card limit
    You’ve already added the maximum number of cards allowed.

  • The name doesn’t match your account
    Make sure you enter your name exactly as it appears on your Común account (including middle names and accents).

  • ZIP code doesn’t match
    Double-check that the ZIP code matches what your bank has on file. If it changed, update it with your bank before trying again.

  • Your card is expired
    Use a valid (non-expired) card.

  • Your card can’t send or receive money
    Make sure you’re using a debit card that allows both sending and receiving funds.

  • Your card is a credit or postpaid card
    We only accept personal debit cards.

  • Your card is already registered
    Check if you already have an account with that card. If you didn’t add it, contact us right away so we can review it.

  • Your bank doesn’t support this service
    Try a different bank card or contact your card issuer.

  • Your card was not issued in the U.S.
    Only U.S.-issued debit cards are accepted.


Why do I need to verify my card?

When you add a new external debit card to use Pay or send remittances, we’ll ask you to verify that you’re the card owner.

This helps keep your account secure and protect your money. 🔒
