Debut Card Competition Live

Mar 1, 2023

Act 1: Share your Idea

The competition is open! We're looking to the community to help inspire the design of the payment card for New Zealand’s smartest bank ever.

Debut is building New Zealand’s next-generation bank together with you. We’re holding a community competition while we design the look of our payment cards and we want your help! Share a story, concept, photo or video that captures something that represents your favourite bit of New Zealand.

Update: Competition deadline extended to end of April. Voting opened earlier.
Enter the competition and your idea could be featured or integrated into the design of Debut cards. Anyone can enter. Plus, the winner will also get $1,000 pre-loaded to their Debut account at launch. Enter the competition by 28 April 2023. Voting begins March 31..
