Oschadbank has extended the validity of cards until June 30, 2026: what does this mean

Extension of the validity period of Oschadbank payment cards

Oschadbank has extended the validity of payment cards that expired since February 2022 until June 30, 2026. This decision applies to cards that have not been reissued and allows their owners to use the cards for another three years.

However, the automatic extension does not apply to cards with active transactions in September-October 2025. Also, cards with a zero balance, the validity of which expired between February 2022 and October 2025, are not eligible for automatic extension. It is important to note that from January 1, 2026, cards that have not been reissued will be blocked.

The importance of extending the validity period of cards

This step by Oschadbank can be significant for many clients who have not had the opportunity to update their payment cards amid changes and instability. Extending the validity of cards will allow users to avoid inconveniences related to card blocking and ensure the continuity of financial transactions. At the same time, it is essential for clients to pay attention to the validity periods of their cards and to reissue them in a timely manner to prevent blocking in 2026.
