Hey @Aditya_Lohia
Upon creating a Fixed Deposit (FD), a virtual card will be generated instantly, allowing you to perform international e-commerce transactions immediately. Your physical card will be delivered within 5-7 working days.
The credit limit on your card will be equivalent to your FD amount. Unlike traditional credit cards, a bill is generated only for the amount utilized.
Please note, effective from 15th June, the available credit limit will be 90% of your FD amount as of now its 100%.

Hello community,
I hope you’re doing well.
I’m writing to raise a concern regarding a $120 transaction (using my Niyo X Equitas Bank Card) that was held as security money/incidental charge during my stay at a hotel in Residence Inn Atlanta Downtown, Atlanta, USA on 7th May 2025 (USA Time Zone).
The hotel has confirmed, that the amount was only a hold and not charged, and that it has been released from their end upon my checkout. As per their advice, I am reaching out to you since the release process from the hotel’s end is complete, and the amount should now be credited back to my Equitas / Niyo X account.
Kindly look into this matter and help initiate the reversal or credit of the $120 to my account at the earliest. Please let me know if you need any further details from my side.
Thank you for your support.
