Identified - We’ve temporarily suspended Mastercard immediate payouts while we fix an issue. For now, please set up another payout method with your merchant.

Immediate payouts are payments sent directly from a merchant to your Zempler card. These appear as ‘Immediate Payment’ in your transaction history. This includes things like gaming payouts, PayPal payouts and train delay refunds. Your card still works as normal for all other spending & cash withdrawals.

We’ll update our website as soon as this service is back up and running. Thanks for your patience — we’re sorry for any inconvenience caused.

Please be aware we have planned maintenance on the evening of Friday 8th May from 10pm until the morning of Saturday 9th May 8am. During this time, the following services will be affected:

- Bank app & Online Banking access
- Our phone service for logging lost or stolen cards will continue to operate during this time. However, you may not be able to self-serve on the platform when calling.
- Inbound and outbound payments – If you’re planning on sending or receiving a payment, we recommend doing this before 10pm on Friday 8th May. Any payments made during the affected time slot will be processed when our services are back up and running at around 8am. Some online purchases that require 3D Secure two-step authentication may be intermittently available. We may send you a one-time password via SMS rather than asking you to approve in-app.
- New Applications
- Open Banking
- Some customer emails & SMS
- Setting up Google Pay

Card purchases and ATM withdrawals will operate normally during the maintenance.
Thank you for your patience. We apologise for any inconvenience caused.
