Lost, stolen, or misplaced card
Temporarily lock a lost, stolen or misplaced card in the St.George App to secure your savings. Or, if you can't find it, report it immediately to cancel your card.
Extra security is just a tap away
As soon as you realise your card is missing, you can put a temporarily lock it by using Card Lock for up to 15 days, giving you the time to look for it or work out what to do next. While your card's locked, no transactions can be made with your physical card or by using any digital wallets. If your card turns up, you can unlock it and use it instantly; otherwise, report it lost or stolen to cancel your card and have a replacement organised.
