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 youmonitor your spending, and set personal limits.
Convenience
Prepaid payment methods usually have fixed amounts (CHF 5, CHF 10, etc.). Aplauz lets you choose, even if you need a very specific amount (for example, CHF 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.

Combine multiple Aplauz codes
Over time, you will probably buy many different Aplauz codes: whether you’re targeting a specific amount (CHF 17) or a
rounded number (CHF 20), the choice is yours.
But what happens when you end-up with some money “leftovers” on one of your Aplauz codes?
Don’t worry, you can still use those credits by combining different Aplauz codes numbers to pay online.
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.ch.
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
Only enter an Aplauz code number at one of our partnering websites (see the list here).
You can share or turn an Aplauz digital credit into a gift, but never share an Aplauz code number over the phone, in an email, or in messaging apps.

Aplauz fees & limits
Using Aplauz digital credits to make online payments is free.
However, there are a couple of situations where some fees may apply:
Maintenance fee
If you have some money left on your Aplauz credit balance for over a year, after the 13th month we will deduct a monthly service fee of CHF 3,00.
Redemption fee
A refund entails a fee of CHF 8. This is deducted from the refunded amount. This fee applies to each refund. Additional fees from your bank may apply.
