Can I have Two Debit Cards For One SBI Account?

Many times we think it is a better option to use two debit cards for one savings account rather than opening two accounts. But, is it possible? Yes! It is possible to apply for two or more debit cards for a single account in SBI.

But, the card type must be different, and you have to pay the applicable maintenance charges of all cards. State Bank of India will charge the annual maintenance charges for all the active debit cards linked with the account.

Apply for second or more Debit Cards at SBI for a single account

Visit the SBI bank/home branch and apply for the New SBI Global Debit Card. You would require providing the account details as well as individual details of the account holder. You may also require specifying the reason for applying for the second debit card.

You can also apply for new SBI debit card online without visiting the branch. Before applying for the second debit card, you must learn about the issuance and annual maintenance charges applicable at SBI.
