OTP system on payment of more than 5 thousand

Under this facility, now the work of the bank has increased more than before. From now onwards, before deducting the payment, the bank will have to send a notification on the mobile of its customers 5 days before the payment due date. When the customer approves this notification, only then will the further process be done. OTP system will have to be implemented on payment of more than 5 thousand, only after which money will be deducted from the account of any account holder.

For you to be benefited from this new system, it is necessary to update your mobile number with the bank. Debit notification will be sent to your updated number through SMS. The new debit system will be applicable only on the mode of debit and credit cards or auto debit payments set up on them. This new system is being implemented with the aim of preventing fraud.
