How to change your card on file for Medium

Last reviewed September 14, 2026

A Medium membership renews monthly or yearly. Small, but it should still earn. You keep every card you carry — this just makes sure Medium renews on the one that earns the most.

Where to update it

In your Medium account: Settings → Membership and payment → Payment method.

Step by step

Sign in at medium.com and open Settings.
Choose Membership and payment.
Select Update payment method.
Add the card Pikt names and save.

Make your recurring payments count.

Create your Pikt account to personalize recommendations to the cards you carry and the reward preferences you set. In Subscriptions, compare those cards for recurring bills before you change a card on file. Pikt Checkout brings the same estimate to online checkout and names the card likely to earn the most. You choose the card and pay with your own card. No credit card required to sign up for beta.
