Your card is set to Europe usage, with the option to switch Worldwide on or off in Internet Banking or the Triodos App under Card Settings.

Transactions are always subject to monitoring so your card may still be declined if we suspect your card is compromised. If a payment does get declined you can contact us 24/7 using the phone number on the back of your card. We would also advise travelling with more than one means of payment.

Use of your debit card outside the UK will incur a 2.5% foreign transaction fee and is subject to the exchange rate. You can use your card at any ATM or merchant where the Visa symbol is displayed and the transaction is made using either Chip&PIN or contactless.

Using Apple Pay abroad works the same way as the Triodos Debit Card and the same charges apply.

Transactions will be processed using the exchange rate set by Visa.

You can use our currency conversion calculator to see how much your transaction could cost.

See our tariff of charges for full details or the Fee Information Document for more information.

You can amend a standing order through Internet Banking or through the Triodos Mobile Banking App.

From the main menu, click on your account, then the ‘Upcoming’ tab and select the standing order you wish to change. Select ‘amend’.

By completing an application for any of our Personal Savings accounts online you are automatically registered for Internet Banking and can manage your account online.

If your application was made by post, then Internet Banking access is available for the following Personal Savings accounts:

• Triodos Saver
• Triodos Cash ISA
• Triodos Regular Saver
• Triodos Fixed Regular Saver
• Triodos Charity Saver

You can also access Triodos Right Start Saver and Junior ISA accounts online, but you can't make payments from these accounts.

If you want to apply to manage your existing Triodos account online, download the application form below or call us on 0330 355 0355 and we'll send you one. Before completing an application form, please ensure you have read our Terms and Conditions for personal savings accounts below.

If you have another smartphone or tablet, you can download the Triodos Mobile Banking App from the App Store or Google Play and set up access on there.

If you need to purchase a replacement device, your debit card will still work in the meantime.

This means you can still:

• pay for a replacement device in store (or make other purchases)
• withdraw cash from an ATM (please remember the daily withdrawal limit from any ATM is £300 unless you have amended this in your settings).

If you are struggling to manage your account or make payments while you are replacing your device, please call us to discuss how we can help you during this period.

Please refer to our Contact, FAQs & Help page, or call us on 0330 355 0355 or +44 (0)117 973 9339 if you are not in the UK.

If you are calling outside of these hours, you can still speak to our card services at any time 24/7.

If you lose an Apple Pay enabled device, you can deactivate Apple Pay by placing your device in 'Lost Mode' via Find My iPhone or by 'Removing All Cards' on icloud.com.

If you are unable to call us, and you don’t have the ability to borrow a phone from a friend or family member, you can email us on [email protected] and mark your email subject as ‘Urgent’. Your email must come from the email address which is registered with us. We will endeavour to respond to your email as soon as possible. Please be aware that email contacts are not usually supported and so should not be used as a regular means to contact us.

While setting up your Triodos App you provide two things:

1. Photos of your ID

To verify your identity and match the details to those we have for you. A fraudster couldn't use their own ID, as their details will not match the information we already hold. The photos you take are from different angles so we can identify fake documents and ensure no one else is attempting to access your account.

2. A live recording of your face

To compare this to your ID, and confirm that it is you setting up the app. This prevents a fraudster from gaining access to your accounts using a fake copy of your ID. This is a digital version of an ‘in-person’ identity check that happens at a high street branch of a bank.

Then you simply choose a passcode which will be linked only to your device. This means that no one else can use your passcode to get into your accounts on their device.

Your ID photo and selfie recording will be held and protected by Triodos Bank and our digital identity verification partner, Fourthline. Please see our Terms & Conditions for more information and our Privacy Policy for how we hold and protect your data.

Yes, Confirmation of Payee (CoP) is an account name-checking service that has been introduced to combat fraud and misdirected payments. Triodos is part of the UK industry-wide scheme for incoming and outbound payments, and a CoP check will be performed every time you send money from your Triodos account. We encourage you still continue to check payment details in line with our guidance, and regularly review our website for information on how to prevent fraud.

For fraud prevention reasons, after you submit your request to change or add a nominated account, there will be a 24 hour wait period until the change becomes effective. However, if a nominated account is removed, it will occur immediately.

This scheme is closing and Triodos customers can no longer make new referrals. Any eligible referrals made on or before 25 March 2025 will receive their gift by email.

No, we won’t contact your friend as we don’t ask you for any of their contact details. When you’ve registered for our Refer a Friend Scheme, you will have a unique link to share with your friend. The link opens join.triodos.co.uk where your friend can register their details and apply for their Triodos personal current account.

Yes you can. To make a payment in a currency other than GBP, log in to your Internet Banking and click on Payments and choose the International Payment option. You will then be able to choose which currency you want to send, and then complete all the relevant details. This is currently not available in the Triodos App.  The charges for this service are explained in the Personal Banking Tariff for current and savings accounts.

Please note the cut-off time for International Payments is 1pm each working day.  Timings for these payments being received vary depending on where the funds are going to. Please allow up to 10 business days for them to arrive if they are being sent outside of Europe.

Banking apps can be safer than online banking as they are not prone to fraudulent activity such as phishing. Unlike your browser, apps have security built in and don't store your personal data on your device.

Banking apps are secured with a numeric code and biometric data, which means a third party cannot use your banking app.

All banking transactions are done via the app. A banking app encrypts your data before it leaves your device. As a result, no one can intercept your data.

At Triodos, we take security very seriously - visit our Fraud Awareness pages for more information on how we protect our customers and things you can do to stay safe online.

You need to be a UK resident to be eligible to apply for any of our savings and deposit accounts.

We are supporting three of our long-term charity partners – Friends of the Earth, RSPB and the Soil Association.

You can withdraw money from your Cash Account by setting up a transfer to your nominated account or another Triodos account in your name, using either the Mobile App or Internet Banking.

Yes, you can. You may find it helpful to rename your accounts to make identifying and distinguishing them a bit easier. To do this, go into ‘Account settings’, select the account you would like to change the name of, then click on ‘Account name’. Once here you can amend the account name.
