SBI OTP Based ATM Cash Withdrawal – The menace of unauthorized ATM Cash transaction has forced the India’s largest bank to introduce OTP based ATM withdrawal. The One Time Password (OTP) based withdrawal may minimise the number of unauthorised transactions happening on SBI ATMs.
State Bank of India announced the launch of OTP-based ATM Withdrawal for transactions above Rs 10,000 between 8 PM to 8 AM.
With the introduction of its OTP-based cash withdrawal facility, State Bank’s ATMs have added another layer of security for cash withdrawals.
OTP will be received on the customer’s mobile number registered with the Bank. The One-time password (OTP) is a system-generated numeric string of characters that authenticates the user for a single transaction. This additional factor of authentication will protect State Bank card holders from unauthorised ATM cash withdrawals.
