How to Withdraw Money Without ATM Card (2 Best Method)

Are you looking for how to withdraw money without ATM card? This post explains in-depth the various methods you can make use of to withdraw cash from ATM stands in Nigeria.

ATM cards are important for cash withdrawals since they provide users access to their bank accounts and enable them to take out cash whenever and wherever they want. A person can use their Personal Identification Number (PIN) and an ATM card to withdraw money from an ATM without going to a bank branch or speaking to a bank teller.

Accessing cash without a debit card can be challenging, particularly when individuals are in urgent need of cash due to misplacement, theft, or damage to the card. The ATM card is required to access the bank account through an ATM, making it difficult to withdraw cash without it. Lack of nearby ATMs or bank branches, along with the absence of an ATM card, can exacerbate this problem. Therefore, alternative methods that are more inclusive, convenient, and secure which are necessary to address this issue will now be discussed here on.

How to Withdraw Money Without ATM Card

There are two methods through which you can make a cardless cash withdrawal, which are:

1. Fingerprint withdrawal
2. Paycode withdrawal

Fingerprint withdrawal
