CARD DETAILS

PayPower Card Number and Security Code

GetMyBalance requires the complete card number and the separate six-digit lookup code shown on supported PayPower cards.

  • The prepaid Mastercard number contains 16 digits.
  • Enter the card number without spaces or hyphens when requested.
  • The supported card-lookup security code contains 6 digits.
  • Do not confuse the six-digit lookup code with a three-digit Mastercard purchase-security code.
  • Do not submit a registered reloadable PayPower account without prior eligibility confirmation.

Protect your PayPower account

A card number or lookup code is not the same as your PayPower password. Never share your account password, one-time authentication code, mobile-wallet credentials or full account access.

COMMON PROBLEMS

PayPower Balance Troubleshooting

Use the method linked to your specific PayPower product before assuming the available funds are incorrect.

The PayPower portal will not load

Enable JavaScript, allow required cookies and retry using a current browser or the official mobile app.

GetMyBalance does not recognize the card

The lookup service may not support that specific PayPower product. Use the PayPower portal, app or customer-service number instead.

The security code is rejected

Confirm that you entered the six-digit lookup code rather than the three-digit Mastercard security code used for purchases.

The available balance seems incorrect

Review pending authorizations and recent transactions, then contact PayPower when the difference remains unexplained.
