When you delete a card in Machines Cash, it is not permanently removed right away.
Instead, deleted cards go through a temporary holding period to prevent accidental loss.
What happens when you delete a card:
• The card is immediately locked and cannot be used
• The card is moved to the Deleted Cards section
• The card remains recoverable for 24 hours
During this 24-hour window:
• The card cannot be charged
• You can restore the card at any time
• Restoring the card returns it to active status
After 24 hours:
• The card is permanently deleted
• The card cannot be recovered
• The card issuance is considered consumed
This process is automatic and cannot be paused or extended.
Why Machines Cash does this:
• Protects users from accidental deletions
• Gives time to reverse mistakes
• Keeps card management predictable and secure
