How can I change the account linked to a payment method?

Updated 2 weeks ago by Flore

At any time, you can choose which Lydia account (shared account, money pot or sub-account) you want to take money from when you use your payment methods.

Simply go to the "Settings" of your payment method (Lydia card, contactless mobile payment, Internet card) in the last tab of the app.

Note: For a payment to go through, the balance of the account linked to the payment method must be higher than the payment amount. Otherwise the transaction will fail. To find out how to top up your account, read this article.
