How to validate online card payments? 

  • If you validated payments in Equa bank mobile banking, you will be validating your payments in Raiffeisenbank’s mobile banking.
  • If you validated your payments using E-PIN and SMS you will not be receiving the validation code by SMS. We will be sending you validation codes to your Raiffeisenbank mobile or internet banking. You can view the code after you successfully sign in.

Bank code

You can start using the new bank code 5500 on 14 November 2022. On and after this date, you will see 5500 as the bank code in all your outgoing payments. Both the original bank code 6100 and the new bank code 5500 will be then valid for 6 months. All domestic payments and direct debits directed to the original bank code (6100) will be automatically redirected to your Raiffeisenbank account. This will give you enough time to make any changes which we will be glad to assist you with.

Attention! Please do not make or report any changes in connection with the new bank code before 14 November 2022.

Foreign currency accounts

Card payments

After 14 November, the payment card will be functional for the CZK account only. However, you can apply for a free new card in Raiffeisen banking for your foreign currency accounts (the currencies remain on the accounts). The following examples show what options you have.

Honza keeps a EUR account only. Nothing changes for him and he doesn't have to do anything.Karel holds an account in CZK and USD. After 14 November, he will have a separate account for each currency. Thus, he will apply for a new payment card to his USD account in Raiffeisenbank banking.Jitka has an account in CZK and USD, but wants to have just one card for both accounts. After 14 November, she activates another currency on her account for 29 CZK per month.

 After 14 November, incoming foreign currency payments must be directed to the account with Raiffeisen banking details (BIC / SWIFT, IBAN).
