# Increase password try count

`POST /wallet/v2/cards/{cardId}/password-tries/increase`

## Request

- Base URL: `https://sandbox.pismolabs.io/passport`
- URL: `https://sandbox.pismolabs.io/passport/wallet/v2/cards/{cardId}/password-tries/increase`
- Auth: none declared

Increase a card's password tries counter by 1. 

If the counter reaches the maximum number of tries configured in the program parameter for this and `block_card_exceeds_counter` is `true`, the card is blocked.
When this happens:

  * The status is changed to `BLOCKED` 
  * A [Card updated](https://developers.pismo.io/events/docs/cards-update-1) event is generated.

If the card's status is `CREATED`, the counter is increased, but the status does not change.

For more information, refer to the [Card lifecycle and statuses](https://developers.pismo.io/pismo-docs/docs/card-lifecycle-and-statuses) guide.

**Note:** This endpoint takes an account token - an access token encoded with a Pismo account ID.
