SBI ATM Green PIN

Since the time banks started, they have been sending PINs through PIN mailers. Here, the PIN number is covered by scratch-off panels and sent to the cardholder’s address through postal or courier service. Lately, some banks have been giving the PIN directly to the customer through the welcome kit. But in this case, if the customer wants to change the PIN, then, he or she should go to the bank and raise a regeneration request.

Sending the ATM PIN through mailers has some difficulties like physical custody of the PIN mailers by bank employees, delays in postal or courier delivery, damage or hacking of PIN during transit, postal and stationary charges for the banks etc. If the PIN gets damaged or tampered with, then banks have to send a new PIN. This increases charges for them. Also, employees have to go physically to the bank if they have to change their PINs. All these are quite cumbersome. So, SBI has come up with a digital way to generate the ATM PIN, and this is called the Green PIN initiative. It is a step towards paperless banking and saves time and energy.
