Paysafecard payment limits
With the implementation of the AMLD 5 Directive into law over EU/EEA countries, anonymous payments with classic prepaid cards of over 50* EUR will no longer be possible.
- From 30.12.2019, Germany and Croatia customers can only make payments above 50* EUR through a personal my Paysafecard account. Individual payments up to 50* EUR will continue to be accepted by just entering a 16-digit Paysafecard PIN.
- From 08.01.2020, all other EU countries will implement these limits.
More information available in this article. For further inquiries, please contact Paysafecard Support.
