You can start using Curve Pay as soon as you sign up! All you have to do is add the Curve card to your mobile wallet, or set Curve Pay as your default wallet.  

If you ordered a physical Curve card, you'll be able to activate it in the Curve wallet once it reaches you by following these steps:

**Step 1:** Selecting **LaunchPad >** [**Curve Pay Card**](https://onelink.curve.com/1WAh/w3cfdz2w)

**Step 2:** Tap on the Activate your card prompt

**Step 3:** Enter the last four digits of the Curve Pay card imprinted on the reversed side of your physical card

Please note that all cards are sent in a deactivated state by Curve.
