Change card usage group

Here, you will learn how to change the card usage group in Tuum. When the usage group is updated:

  • The card is assigned new service codes (allowed authorisation types) based on the updated usage group.

  • Existing valid service codes (allowed authorisation types) are ended, with their end time set to match the new usage group’s start time.

Use case

In this example, we will demonstrate how to update the card usage group using the following data.

Use case data
API parameters with values

The card usage group will be changed for card C001664282649.

In this example, the usage group PAYMENT_SERVICES will become effective starting from 01.05.2025.
