As the name suggests, a virtual debit card is not a physical card, and you can access it only digitally. You can use the card number, CVV and pin to make online transactions and purchases. 

How do I convert my savings account into a digital savings account

Every IDFC FIRST bank savings account can be accessed by the account holder through the official website or mobile banking app.

Can I open bank account with Aadhaar card?

How much money can I deposit in my digital account?

The total cumulative credit (including cash deposits) in your account is restricted to Rs. 1 lakh until all the KYC requirements are met. You can visit your nearest branch or complete the video KYC process (24 hours, 365 days a year) to fulfil the KYC requirements and have unrestricted access to your account. Do note that these restrictions are placed by all scheduled banks as per the guidelines of the Reserve Bank of India. In addition, you must ensure that the average monthly balance (AMB) is maintained depending on the type of digital savings account you hold. 

Is a digital savings account safe to use?

Yes, a digital savings account is safe to use when opened with a regulated bank. Banks use encryption, multi-factor authentication, and secure login systems to protect your data and transactions. IDFC FIRST Bank digital savings accounts come with advanced security features, ensuring safe banking through mobile and internet platforms.

Do I need to visit a branch after opening a digital savings account?

No, you do not need to visit a branch after opening a digital savings account as the process is fully completed online. IDFC FIRST Bank offers end-to-end digital onboarding through Aadhaar-based KYC and remote video verification, making the process quick and convenient.
