I am interested in getting a Niyo SBM “debit” card (not the FD backed credit card). I am assuming the Niyo SBM “debit” card is also 0 forex and free (for now) right?
I currently already have an Equitas account. In the app I see on the home page “Order card for exciting benefits” . However, it’s not clear to me if this is the FD backed card or debit card. Is this the way to get a debit card too?
Hi @harisundara.rajan,
Thanks for your time over the call. We hope we were able to assist you with your Niyo SBM onboarding and card facilities inquiries.
As discussed, the SBM FD-backed credit card is optional. It is not mandatory to have an FD-backed credit card for your SBM account. You can complete your onboarding and account creation, order your debit card and use the SBM debit card for both domestic and international transactions with 0 forex charges and enjoy other Niyo offers.
