💳 Add, remove or change a payment card

Add your card before trying to pay for an item. Open side menu > Shop > Manage Payment Methods > Add another card. This helps avoid checkout problems when your bank asks you to authorise the card in its banking app.

1. Open Manage Payment Methods

Open the side menu, tap Shop, then Manage Payment Methods.

2. Add your card

1. Tap Add another card.
2. Enter the cardholder, card, contact and billing details requested on the form.
3. Follow the on-screen prompts and complete any bank authorisation.
4. Return to the School App and check that the card appears in Manage Payment Methods.
5. Once the card is saved, return to Shop > School Payment, choose your items and select the saved card during checkout.

Why add the card before checkout?

If you add a card during checkout, switching to your banking app for authorisation can interrupt checkout when you return. The bank authorisation may show €0. This is not confirmation that the school item has been paid.

If checkout does not finish, check Shop > Order History and any payment confirmation before trying again. If the result is unclear, contact support rather than making another payment immediately.

Remove or replace a saved card

To remove a saved card, open Shop > Manage Payment Methods, then press and hold the card and follow the removal prompt. To use a replacement card for new purchases, add it here first and choose it at checkout.

Important: removing or replacing a saved card does not change an active instalment plan. Remaining instalments continue to use the card on which the plan was started.

Change the card for remaining instalments

1. Add the new card through Manage Payment Methods first.
2. Open Shop > Order History.
3. Find and open the relevant instalment payment.
4. Tap Change Card beside a pending instalment and follow the prompts to change the card used for the remaining instalments.

If you have more than one active instalment order, check each relevant order separately. Do not assume that adding a new card automatically updates them.

For failed instalments, see Why is my instalment payment failing? To cancel a plan or request a refund, contact the school.

Need help?

For a technical card or checkout issue, email support@uniqueschools.ie with your school name, the error shown and the order reference if available. Never send your full card number, security code, banking password or verification code.
