card.activated — delivered when card issuance succeeds and the card becomes usable.When it fires#
The Issue Card endpoint returns status: PENDING, which only means the request was accepted.
This event is the confirmation that the card is live.Wait for this event before telling your end user the card is ready. If issuance fails you
receive Card Failed instead.Payload#

Verifying the signature#
Three headers accompany every delivery:| Header | Value |
|---|
X-Webhook-Event | Event category, always ISSUING for this event |
X-Webhook-Event-Type | The specific event type, see above |
X-Webhook-Signature | HMAC-SHA256 signature, lowercase hex |
X-Webhook-Signature = hex_lower( HMAC_SHA256( appSecret, rawBody ) )
The signed content is the raw request body only, with no timestamp and no separator. The signing
key is your appSecret — there is no separate webhook secret.1.
Sign the raw bytes of the request body, before any JSON parsing.
2.
Compare in constant time.
3.
Nothing time-based is signed, so a captured delivery stays replayable — deduplicating on
eventId is mandatory, not optional.
Delivery#
Return any 2xx within 10 seconds to acknowledge.
Failed deliveries are retried on a fixed interval: 5 attempts, 5 minutes apart (about
20 minutes in total), after which the event is marked exhausted and never retried again.
This endpoint receives Issuing events only; still return 2xx for event types you do not handle.
Delivery is at least once — deduplicate on eventId.
Ordering is not guaranteed — use occurredAt to decide which version is newer.

handling.Modified at 2026-09-30 09:27:05
