Can anyone get a Pockit Card?

Pockit's mission is to help everyone to benefit from full and fair access to the financial system.

You can get an account no matter your credit history, how long you've been living in the UK or whether you have a passport or a driving licence!

We accept more than 30 documents, which means most likely we've got you covered. Our team treats each case individually to make sure you get the attention you need.

You have to be over 18 years old to qualify for a Pockit account though.

I am new to the UK. Can I still get a Pockit account?

Yes, you can!

We'll need to see your UK residence card to open a Pockit account. It's super easy to upload via the Pockit app.

Don't have a residence permit yet? Fear not, we'll accept your passport or a national ID card as long as they clearly state your right to reside in the UK.

I don't have my passport or driving licence. Can I still get a Pockit account?

Yes, you can!

We accept more than 30 different documents, which are super easy to upload using the Pockit app.

Do you do a credit check?

We do a soft check to confirm your identity. This will show on your credit file but will not affect your credit rating.

We don't take into account your credit history though. In other words you can get a full UK account no matter your credit history.

How do I add money to my Pockit account?

You can add money to your Pockit account quickly and easily by:

  1. Transferring money from a different bank account to your Pockit account number (up to £5,000 or up to £10,000 once you sent us your recent payslip or benefits letter)

For security reasons you can’t use your Pockit card in Brazil at this time.

Where can I use my Pockit card?

Your Pockit card should work anywhere that accepts Mastercard®.

There are some exceptions though:

  1. You won't be able to pay at a petrol pump. Instead, take your Pockit card straight to the cashier to pay for your petrol
