Cash withdrawn from ATM without debit-credit card

 The Reserve Bank of India (RBI) has directed that all banks, ATM networks, and white label ATM operators (WLAO) allow consumers to withdraw cash from ATMs without using credit or debit cards. Many banks currently provide this Interpol Cardless Cash Withdrawal (ICCW) service. You will not require a debit or credit card when the modifications are implemented in all banks' ATMs.

ATM network need for UPI integration

The Reserve Bank of India (RBI) has requested that the National Payments Corporation of India (NPCI) incorporate the universal payment interface (UPI) from all banks and ATM networks so that transactions may be validated. The RBI said in the circular, "All banks, ATM networks, and WLAOs shall provide ICCW on their ATMs. In addition, NPCI has been mandated to link the Unified Payments Interface (UPI) with all banks and ATM networks."

ATM stands for 'Automated Teller Machine.' At 1967, the world's first ATM was built in the Barclays branch in Infield. At the same time, a new ATM being erected every three minutes throughout the globe today.

The remaining ATM transactions will be at the limit.

According to the circular, the consumer would be verified via UPI, while subsequent payment and settlement will be handled through the National Financial Switch (NFS). "On-us or off-us ICCW transactions must be free of extra charges, and no further payment is required," it said. Aside from that, the cash withdrawal limit will be the same as the limit for other methods of withdrawal.
