Every payment from the app needs your card and the phone it is paired to. Pair a new phone, or a phone you reinstalled the app on, with a card that was already activated.
Before you start: Your activated Clevor card, your Clevor account signed in on the new phone, and NFC switched on.
Open Settings › Pair card with this phone, or tap Pair now when the app offers it. Have your card with you.
