You can use your Centtrip card to withdraw from any cash machine displaying the Mastercard Acceptance Mark above.

When taking out money, the ATM will usually give you a couple of withdrawal options to:

Process the transaction in local currency
Use the ATM’s conversation rate.

We highly recommend selecting option 1 to ensure you take out the currency held on the card and avoid any conversion fee being applied by the ATM operator.

If you select option 2 when you have the local currency on your Centtrip card, the ATM will identify it as a UK card and process the withdrawal in GBP. This means the local currency will be converted to GBP on your card and then back at the ATM’s rate, which tends to be very poor. You may also incur additional fees.

Question 4

How do I enable Multi-factor Authentication?

Accepted Answer

To help ensure your account remains secure, Multi-factor Authentication (MFA) is required when signing into your desktop account or adding a new payment recipient. We recommend using the app to authenticate, and have provided step-by-step instructions on how to set this up below.

Download the Centtrip mobile app for Android or iOS & log in using your credentials. Not yet created these?.
Once complete, tap EMAIL and check your inbox for an eight-digit verification code.

Create a memorable 4-6 digit app passcode and re-enter it to confirm. If prompted, choose whether to enable face or fingerprint ID for app sign in.
You should now see a screen confirming that you are signed in. Tap MULTI-FACTOR AUTHENTICATION.
Select LINK DEVICE to complete your MFA set up.

Hints & tips

Email verification code not received?
'Transfer to another device’– if this message is displayed after tapping MULTI-FACTOR AUTHENTICATION, it may mean your account is linked to another device. Learn more.
'Check your time settings’ – this message indicates that the time on your device may be slightly out of sync, which can cause an issue for the time-sensitive verification codes. Please visit your device settings to ensure the time is correct.

Question 5

What should I do if I have lost my device?

Accepted Answer

Your Centtrip app is secured with either a passcode or biometrics to prevent unauthorised access.

If you've enabled Multi-factor Authentication, you'll be unable to log in to your desktop account without an in-app security code. Please contact us using the details at the bottom of this page and we'll help you get access to your account.

Question 8

Can I categorise my transactions?

Accepted Answer

Yes, you can.

Labels are a simple yet extremely effective new tool on our app that enables you to search your transactions more easily. Simply use available or create new labels online and on the app to categorise your expenses by projects, departments or events and better organise your transactions.

This new feature replaces hashtags and allows you to create as many categories as you need. Add a new category as you make a purchase or search existing labels to mark the transaction to easily identify it when running reconciliation either in real time or later on.

To add or create new label:

Tap on the transaction you want to categorise
Tap on ‘Labels’
Either select from the list of existing labels or create a new one
Tap ‘Done’

Create new or use existing labels to categorise transactions

Customise existing labels and re-use them for future transactions. Both account administrators and users can create, edit and use the same labels online and on the app.

You can also export labelled transactions from and import them into your accountancy package for reconciliation and reporting purposes.

All labels are included in any transaction reporting.
