How to Withdraw from a Fidelity Bank ATM Without an ATM Card: Users can withdraw cash from an ATM without showing a physical debit or credit card thanks to the Fidelity Bank banking feature called “cardless withdrawal,” also known as “withdrawal without an ATM card.” Clients can initiate and approve the withdrawal using alternative means without needing to swipe or insert a card into the ATM.
Among the many benefits of cardless withdrawal is convenience, especially for those who need to transfer money to someone who can take cash from an ATM without a bank card or who misplaces or forgets their physical cards. It also increases security by reducing the likelihood of card skimming or theft because no real cards are used during the transaction.
How Is Cardless Withdrawal Useful?
There are various reasons why you should make use of this feature:
Safety: If you are in an area where having a card could be risky, leave it at home and travel without one.
Convenience: Not having to worry about additional plastic items might sometimes be more convenient.
Emergencies: Has your wallet vanished from sight? Not a problem. You still have access to cash.
