Well, it’s basically a credit card... you present it at the checkout and get all the usual IKEA Family benefits. But then you pay with the card. They charge the money on the 5th of the following month. You always have to make sure you have enough money in your account for that... I would have preferred the regular IKEA Family card. But at least I got a 10 euro (about 11 USD) voucher when I applied for it. I just thought it was the regular one. Oh well...

Ah, I see... well, that’s unfortunate. But if you pay attention, it should work out fine.

Hey,
you don’t have to use the Ikea payment card just for paying!
The 10 euros were an incentive for Seppel to apply for the payment card. You probably noticed that it’s not just a simple family card since you had to provide information about your income and so on!
You can simply present it to participate in the prize draw and to have transport insurance 😀 or maybe to get a discount!
Also, in the restaurant, you only need to show the card to get a free cup of coffee! 😎
But don’t worry—if an item is cheaper with the family card, the cashier will ask you for it 😉
With this card, I save a lot more immediately than with the Payback card—namely instantly and noticeably in my wallet.
