How to change my confirmation PIN?

The confirmation PIN is the code you use to confirm transfers or any other transactions you make from your N26 app. If you aren’t sure what it is, remember that you created your own confirmation PIN when you paired your smartphone with your account for the first time.

If you’ve forgotten your PIN code or want to change it, you can do so at any time. Simply follow these steps:

  1. Open your N26 app, go to My Account by selecting your initials on the top right corner, then tap Security
  2. Click on Change confirmation PIN.
  3. Enter your new Confirmation PIN twice.
  4. Enter your account password correctly to confirm the change.

If you enter your Confirmation PIN incorrectly 6 times in a row, you'll have to reset it before trying again.

For security reasons we don’t accept any PIN containing elements of your birth date, address, or any combination of repeated digits or numerical sequences, such as 1111, 1234 or 4321. If the number you chose fails, please try again with a different combination.

Remember that your confirmation PIN is not the same as your debit card PIN, although you can certainly choose the same PIN code for both if you wish.
