Let’s give it up for Aplauz

Aplauz for a fair way to pay

Aplauz was designed as a new payment method that empowers people to make conscious spending. It eliminates the risk of losing control of your spending or privacy.

Budget control

The temptation to go over budget online is high. Aplauz puts you back into the driver’s seat, helps you monitor your spending, and set personal limits.

Convenience

Prepaid payment methods usually have fixed amounts (CHF 5, CHF 10 or EUR 5, EUR 10 etc.). Aplauz lets you choose, even if you need a very specific amount (for example, CHF 17 or EUR 17). Also, you are literally a few steps away from it: you can find it in a local store or purchase it online.

Safety

Not comfortable revealing your personal data online? Worried about financial fraud? You’re not the only one. In fact, studies prove that 41% of people stay away from online shopping to avoid potential fraud. Aplauz takes that concern away entirely, because it doesn’t need your personal or financial information.

Aplauz App

Aplauz App is a digital wallet that enables you to store and manage your prepaid vouchers digitally, in a convenient and secure way. With a digital wallet, you can make payments and keep track of your transactions all in one place, right from your smartphone.

Using Aplauz App saves you the hassle of carrying around multiple Aplauz vouchers, plus, you can use it to pay for purchases online, making it an efficient payment method. With Aplauz App, you also get enhanced security features, such as biometric payment verification, making it more secure than using physical vouchers.

The Aplauz App is a fast, secure, and convenient way to manage your money and make payments. A must-have tool if you want to simplify your spending.

Kids's Voucher

Allows you to have full control over your children’s online spending, and to monitor and manage your kids’ transactions on gaming sites through the mobile app.

Direct Load

Allows you to easily and securely top up your digital wallet by showing cashiers a barcode with wanted denomination, eliminating the need for physical vouchers and reducing the time required for manual top-up

Combine multiple Aplauz codes

Over time, you will probably buy many different Aplauz codes:
whether you’re targeting a specific amount (CHF 17/ EUR 17)
or a rounded number (CHF 20/ EUR 20), the choice is yours.

But what happens when you end-up with some money
“leftovers” on one of your Aplauz codes?

You can do the following:
Use those credits by combining different Aplauz codes numbers to pay online
or
Add leftover credits to the Aplauz App and spend the total balance of your digital wallet.

Online and in-store bought vouchers can be combined when used to pay.
Aplauz makes sure you don’t lose a cent!

Keep it safe with Aplauz

Aplauz is one of the safest ways to make online payments as you don’t need to enter
personal details, bank account information, or credit card numbers. All you need to type
in is the 16-digit code number from the voucher and you’re good to go.

CODE LOCK

If you lose your Aplauz code number, you can quickly lock it and ensure no-one else can use it. In order to do so, simply send an email to contact@aplauz.com.

SUPER-SHIELD

Just like game characters, Aplauz comes with a strong protection shield: built-in security systems that keep hackers away.

3 rules for 100% protection
  1. Pay with Aplauz App or enter an Aplauz code number only at one of our partnering websites (see the list here).
  2. Never share an Aplauz code number over the phone, in an email, or in messaging apps.
  3. Lost your Aplauz code number? Report it immediately to us and request a code lock.

If, for whatever reason, you feel insecure about anything related to Aplauz, contact our Customer Service; they are always happy to help.

Aplauz fees & limits

Using Aplauz digital credits and/or wallet to make online payments is free.
However, there are a couple of situations where some fees may apply:

Maintenance fee

If you purchased an Aplauz voucher in Switzerland, an administrative fee of 3,00 CHF will be charged if the Voucher is not used for a period of longer than twelve (12) months since the Voucher purchase date. This fee will be charged monthly and deducted from the available funds until the available funds are redeemed completely or the balance becomes zero (after the deduction of fees).

If you purchased Aplauz voucher in European Union countries and you have some money left on it for more then 6 months, we will be deducting a monthly service fee of EUR 2,50. This fee will be charged monthly and deducted from the Available Funds on the first day of every month starting from the first month after the 6-month period has elapsed until the balance becomes zero (after the deduction of fees).

Redemption fee

For Aplauz vouchers purchased in Switzerland, a redemption entails a fee of 8,00 CHF. This is deducted from the redeeming amount. This fee applies to each voucher redemption request. Additional fees from your bank may apply.
 
For Aplauz vouchers purchased in European Union countries, a refund entails a fee of 4,00 EUR. This is deducted from the refunded amount. This fee applies to each refund. Additional fees from your bank may apply.
 
For Aplauz App a redemption entails a fee of 4,50 EUR.

INACTIVITY FEE

If you use your Aplauz App regularly, no fees or additional costs will appear. But, if you have no transactions for a period of 6 months, you are subject to a monthly 4,50 EUR inactivity fee, starting from the 7th month of inactivity. To avoid this fee, simply sign in to your Aplauz App and perform a transaction, at least once every 6 months.
