On the account homepage, find the menu bar at the top and click on the “Wallet” option. This will take you to a page that displays all your current payment methods.
Step 3: Choose the Card to Remove
In the “Wallet” section, you’ll see a list of your current cards. Identify the card you wish to remove and click on it to access the card details.
