Use the Activate Card endpoint to activate a physical card that has an emboss record in status: Y. Do not use this endpoint to activate a virtual card; instead, use the <a href="ref:post_modifystatus" target="_blank">Modify Status</a> endpoint with type: 7.
Consult the <a href="doc:activate-card-procedure" target="_blank">Activating a Card</a> procedure for more information.
If you are not PCI compliant, you can use this endpoint only under certain circumstances. See <a href="doc:setting-up-a-card-program#pci-compliance" target="_blank">PCI compliance</a> in Setting Up a Card Program for details.
For Digital First cards, calling this endpoint removes account features 20 or 21 to activate the physical card. See <a href="doc:setup-for-digital-first#removing-the-block" target="_blank">Removing the block</a> for details.
