Understanding Credit Card Use in My Winter Car & PIN Change Guide

The credit card plays a key role in My Winter Car. You’ll be using it often for various in-game tasks, making it a cornerstone of your financial activities.

While cash is available, most transactions occur digitally. To access cash, you’ll first need to withdraw it at an ATM using your credit card, but don’t forget to set your PIN!

What’s Your Credit Card PIN in My Winter Car?

At the game’s start, your credit card is empty of a PIN. The first four-digit code you choose becomes your permanent PIN for that save file. Use any available ATM (the one at the gas station is a great starting point) to input your chosen code.
