How to lock my Acorns debit card
Here's how to instantly lock your Acorns debit card:
- Log into your Acorns account
- From your home screen, select "Checking"

Will locking my card pause existing transactions?
Placing a temporary lock on your card won't stop any pending or scheduled ACH transactions associated with your Acorns Checking account.
An ACH (automated clearing house) transaction is a bank-to-bank transaction, like a transfer. An example of this type of transaction is a scheduled transfer between your Acorns Checking and your linked primary checking account. Any ACH transactions currently in progress or coming up will still go through if you lock your card. Here's how to pause any upcoming scheduled transfers as well.
Locking your debit card also doesn't stop or pause your monthly subscription fee. Here's more information about your subscription.
