A method of activating a taken at a self-service terminal is described. The method comprises receiving an active token (such as a financial card) from a customer. The terminal then authenticates the customer using the active token and an associated identifier, which may be a PIN. The terminal then receives an inactive token from the customer (such as a newly-issued card), and validates that the inactive token relates to the same customer as the active token. In the event of successful validation, the terminal then activates the inactive token, either directly or indirectly.
