The IKEA Family digital card
We're stopping printing plastic IKEA Family cards.
There aren't many places you lose more things at than at home. Luckily, there's no longer any risk of that with IKEA Family cards. The massive growth in the amount of mobile phones in the last few years has finally given us the option of stopping printing plastic loyalty cards and changing to a digital version. Digital ones aren't so easy to lose, and they're also contactless and more hygienic. The reason why we're doing this is clear. It is in our long-term interest to burden the environment as little as possible. We believe that you'll help us in this.
If you have difficulty finding the classic card from time to time, it'll be easy to find the new, digital one. Where? And what to do with the plastic card?
Plastic cards will still work
All existing plastic cards remain valid – we've just decided to stop making new ones. We believe that the digital version makes things easier not just for nature, but also for you.
Want to try it out? There are many ways to get it:
If you've got a plastic card, you already have its digital twin. You'll find it in your customer profile on the IKEA.cz website. All you have to do before paying (or in the comfort of your home) is go to the website on your mobile, log in and show them the QR code at the check-out.
Are you paying with an iOS phone? Great! It's easy to add the IKEA Family card to your Apple Wallet. All you have to do is open any IKEA Family e-mail on your phone, click on Add to Apple Wallet at the bottom of the e-mail, and save the card.
✓ Open Google Pay
You'll definitely like this option if you like paying with an Android phone. It's easy to add an IKEA Family card to the GooglePay service – do it the same way you do with all other cards.

✓ Install the IKEA Store app
You can also find the digital IKEA Family card in our IKEA Store mobile app. It works just the same as on the website: log in, click on the IKEA Family card, and show the code when paying. And that's it! You'll find many more things in the app, for example special offers or practical information.
✓ Open any newsletter that we've ever sent you
When you're paying, all you need to do is find a newsletter we've sent you – you'll find your card's QR code in the footer, that is, at the bottom of it. In the footer you'll now also find direct links for adding it to your Apple Wallet or Google Pay.
