What happens to my cards on a new phone?
New phone, same wallet
Sign in on the new phone. Every card is already there.
Including the ones you photographed, with their pictures — nothing to add back by hand. Perkd unlocks with your face, your fingerprint or a passkey, and what unlocks it is held by the phone, not by Perkd.

What that means
Opens the way your phone does
The same face, fingerprint or passkey you already use for everything else. What unlocks your cards is held by the phone itself, not by Perkd.
Photos restore with the card
A card you photographed comes back as that card, image and all — not as an empty record with the name still attached.
Expiry warnings on your own cards too
Perkd tells you before something expires, including on cards you added yourself rather than only on the ones a brand issued.
Findable from the home screen
On iPhone, a card can be found from system search without opening Perkd first.
Checkable, one line each
- Perkd unlocks with a passkey, a fingerprint or face recognition. What unlocks it is held by the phone’s own secure storage, not by the app.
- Cards you photographed restore with their images, not as empty records.
- Expiry reminders run on cards you added yourself, not only on cards issued by a partner.
