once you have a nickname for our cards in the main view of the application we will see their names instead of your last four digits. Only in the supported cards for contactless payments we will see the design of the bank, in the not supported, we will see only the icon of Visa, Mastercard or American Express.

Thanks to the nicknames we will have no more doubts about what bank is each card. The only problem is now is that the nicknames only appear in the app Google Pay, still have not implemented this feature in the web version, but it is expected that they will soon also display the nicknames.
