Can I have a Visa Free and a Cumulus credit card?
Yes, in principle you can have both credit cards at the same time. 

Do you need a Migros Bank bank account in order to use the Cumulus credit card?
No, you can also use the Cumulus credit card without having a Migros Bank bank account.

What does "exclusively beneficial owner" mean?
Exclusively beneficial owner means that the funds used to pay the bill must belong solely to the beneficial owner. If these funds are held in a joint account, neither of the account holders is the sole beneficial owner.

My credit card application was rejected. What could be the reasons for this?
As a credit card issuer, we check whether our issuing criteria and the legal requirements are observed. Unfortunately, your application does not satisfy all the requirements. Grounds for refusal can include:

  • The applicant is not the sole economic beneficiary
  • The findings of enquiries at information centres (e.g. ZEK, IKO, authorities) do not meet our submission guidelines

Apply for an additional card

Where can I apply for the additional card?
After a successful review of your primary card application, you can apply for up to 3 additional cards – for additional members of your household – at any time and free of charge. Please note that you need the card account number starting with 1107 for this. You will find your card account number on the top right of the paper invoice or in the one app under invoices and also in the Card > Card Details tab. Apply now

Who can apply for the additional card?
You can apply for additional cards for adults in your household who have the same residential address. The primary cardholder may not apply for an additional card for themselves.

How many additional cards are free of charge?
You can apply for up to 3 additional cards free of charge. Please note that additional cards are only possible for people who live in the same household as you.

Why is an additional card worthwhile?
Besides your primary card, you can apply for up to 3 additional cards for other adults in your household free of charge. Your primary card and the additional cards are linked through your credit card account. You receive an overview of all expenditures in your monthly statement. The points collected with the additional cards are credited to the primary card Cumulus account.

What documents and information do I need to apply for the additional card?
To apply for an additional card, all you need is the ID or passport (digitally as a scan or photo) of the additional cardholder. If the additional cardholder is not a Swiss national, we also need this person’s residence permit.

What are the requirements for an additional card?

- Same residential address and household as the primary cardholder
- Swiss nationality or residence permit B, C, Ci or L
- Minimum age: 18 years
- The beneficial ownership lies exclusively with the primary cardholder, i.e. the money used to settle the credit card invoice and/or deposited on the credit card account belongs exclusively to the primary cardholder.

Can I have a self-settlement account for the additional card?
No, additional cards are always charged to the same card account as the primary card.

How is the additional card invoiced?
Transactions made with the additional card are charged to your card account. This allows you to keep track of things.

Where can I find my card account number?
You can find your card account number either on an invoice or in the one app under card details. 

Switch to Migros Bank

What happens to my current Cumulus Mastercard?
The services of your existing Cumulus Mastercard remain valid until the expiry date of the card. After that, the credit card expires automatically and you can no longer collect Cumulus points with the Cumulus Mastercard (you will find the expiry date on the card). If you no longer need the card, you can cancel it with the credit card issuer.

Is my previous Cumulus Mastercard automatically invalidated, or do I have to do something if I no longer need it?
If you no longer need the card, you can cancel it with the credit card issuer. Your Cumulus Mastercard otherwise remains valid and expires automatically after the expiry date.

Why switch to Migros Bank?
5 reasons why you benefit even more from the Cumulus credit card.

What happens to the outstanding balance on the current Cumulus Mastercard?
You will be charged the outstanding balance on the current Cumulus Mastercard. To settle this invoice, please contact the issuer of the current Cumulus Mastercard.

Why do I need to reapply for the Cumulus credit card? Why can't the data of the current Cumulus-Mastercard be used and transferred?
The business relationship between the client and the issuer of the current Cumulus-Mastercard is subject to banking secrecy. For this reason, data may not be transferred.

What is my application status

I have been notified in the one app that my documents are being checked. However, nothing more is happening now.

From Monday to Saturday from 7am – 10pm, it can take up to 15 minutes to check the application. If the check lasts more than 30 minutes, please apply for the card using the online form.
