Enhanced Security for Debit Card Transactions

To encourage better security on your Debit Card, RBI has made it mandatory to disable Online, Contactless & International transactions for customers who have been inactive for this service.

Bank is also providing the option to enable or disable your card on ATM or POS usage for Domestic and International transactions over and above the RBI circular.

This is simply a precautionary measure to ensure a safe banking experience for you. You can easily re-enable these features by following the below.

Here are listed the Steps for Enabling through HDFC Bank Netbanking:

1. Login to HDFC Bank Netbanking  ​​​​​​​
