What is a debit card number?
 

A debit card number is a 14 to 16-digit number printed on your debit card. It carries your bank account and personal details. You can use it to withdraw funds from ATMs, pay through POS (Point of Sale) machines, and carry out online transactions. Generally, the debit card number is embossed on the debit card in four groups of four digits that help uniquely identify a specific debit card.

The debit card number is a unique identifier linked to a specific account number. You can use your card number, CVV, and pin to process a transaction without a physical card.

IDFC FIRST Bank offers a range of debit cards with its savings account that can be customised according to your requirements. The cards have unique features such as higher withdrawal limits of up to 2 lakhs, shopping limits of up to 6 lakhs, exclusive online shopping offers, airport lounge access, air accident coverage of up to ₹1 crore, and enhanced payment security.

Opening a savings account with IDFC FIRST Bank enables you to earn interest rates of up to 7% with monthly interest payouts to enhance your savings. You also get Zero Fee Banking on all commonly used savings account services, which include free ATM withdrawals, zero charges on online money transfers, free debit card issuance and cheque book re-issuance. 


Ways to find your debit card number
 

If you already have a debit card, you can find your debit card number on the front side or back side of your card. However, if you own a virtual debit card or have misplaced your debit card, you can search for its number through various methods - online as mentioned below. In case you have misplaced your debit card, you should block it immediately through net banking or mobile banking or by calling the customer service team or by visiting the branch.

  • Net banking: Login to IDFC FIRST Bank’s net banking portal: https://my.idfcfirstbank.com/login by entering your mobile number and password. Go to Accounts->Cards and click on your Debit card. Click on the eye icon and enter your MPIN to view your Debit card details. You can also block and manage your Debit card limits.

  • Mobile banking: Login to your mobile banking app and Go to Accounts> Cards and click on your Debit card. Click on the eye icon and enter your MPIN to view your Debit card details. You can also block and manage your Debit card limits.

  • Contacting the bank's customer service: Reach out to the bank's customer service helpline at 1800 10 888. They can assist you in retrieving your debit card number after verifying your identity. All you need to do is provide your personal information and answer security questions to confirm your identity.

  • Account statement/transaction history: Review your bank account statements or transaction history. Your debit card number is often included in the details of transactions. Log in to your online banking account or access paper statements to locate recent transactions where you have used your debit card.

  • Visiting your bank: Visit your bank branch and speak with a bank representative to request assistance in retrieving your debit card number. They may require you to provide identification to confirm your identity before disclosing the information. 

Banks ensure your privacy and ensure that your transactions remain secure. A debit card contains a card number and a CVV (Card Verification Value) number as unique identifiers for processing payments. The CVV number is confidential, just like your debit card PIN. You must keep your debit card numbers secure to avoid unauthorized transactions.
