Meaning"Please check the details of your card."
💡

Meaning

A courteous request asking someone to look over or verify the information printed on their card, such as the number, expiration date, or security code. The phrase is direct but softened by the polite ‘por favor’.

🎯

When to use

Use this sentence in customer‑service contexts, when guiding a user through an online checkout, or when a colleague needs to confirm card details before a transaction. It works best in informal or semi‑formal settings where you address the person with ‘tú’.

1

Por favor

A polite formula used before a request; it can appear at the beginning or end of a sentence.

2

Imperative (revisa)

‘Revisa’ is the tú‑imperative of the verb *revisar* (to check). It is informal; for formal you would use *revise*.

3

Definite article (los)

‘Los’ agrees in gender and number with *datos* (masculine plural).

4

Possessive adjective (tu)

‘Tu’ indicates that the card belongs to the listener; it is unstressed, so no accent is needed.

5

✕Common Mistakes

  • Por favor, revisar los datos de tu tarjeta.

    ‘Revisar’ is the infinitive; you need the imperative form ‘revisa’ (tú) or ‘revise’ (usted).

  • Por favor, revisa los datos de su tarjeta.

    When using the formal ‘usted’ form, replace ‘tu’ with ‘su’. Mixing informal and formal registers sounds odd.

  • Por favor, revisa el datos de tu tarjeta.

    If you refer to a single piece of information, use the singular ‘el dato’. Plural is correct for multiple fields.

↔Alternatives

  • Por favor, verifica la información de tu tarjeta.

    Please verify the information on your card.

  • Revisa los datos de tu tarjeta, por favor.

    Check your card details, please.

  • Asegúrate de que los datos de tu tarjeta estén correctos.

    Make sure your card details are correct.

Cultural Tip

In Spanish‑speaking countries, adding ‘por favor’ before an imperative is considered essential for politeness, especially in service interactions. If you need a more formal tone (e.g., speaking to a customer you don’t know well), switch to the usted form: *Por favor, revise los datos de su tarjeta.*
