Getting Started with Union Bank Visa International Debit shopping Card – FAQ

What is my Visa Debit Card?

Your Visa Debit Card is a worldwide access card to your Union Bank account. You can use your card to
pay for purchases, shopping, bill payments, and also to withdraw cash at ATMs.

How is it different from my ATM card?

The ATM card issued by Union Bank could only be used at ATMs to withdraw cash. Your Visa Debit card
has many more benefits for you. It is a globally accepted card and you can use your Visa Debit card at
the point-of-sale and on the internet. It’s more than an ATM card with added security.

Why have you changed my card to a Visa card?

We believe that our customers should have access to their bank account wherever they are. The Visa
Debit card provides you with these benefits: shopping, bill payment, ATM cash, and internet
transactions. Your Visa Debit card is the only card you need to access your Union Bank account. You
should now discontinue using the old ATM card as it will not function after 31st March 2016.

Which account is my Visa Debit card linked to?

You can link all your savings and current accounts to your debit card. You can set one of those accounts
as the primary account which will be used for point-of-sale purchases.

Where can I use my Visa Debit card?

Wherever your see the Visa sign at merchants, anywhere in the world, you can use your Visa Debit card.
If you don’t see a sign, do not hesitate to ask “Do you accept Visa cards?”

Can I use my Visa Debit card on the internet?

Visa Debit cards are accepted for payment wherever you see the Visa sign – including online. Simply
quote your card number and expiry date. As an additional security measure merchants require the three
digit Card Verification Value (CVV) on the back of your card. Never divulge these information to third
party.
Do I sign or enter PIN to authorize my transactions?

You are required to enter the PIN for every ATM transaction. You are only required to place your
signature on the receipt for point-of-sale transactions. Ensure that you place your signature on the
signature panel of your Debit Card as soon as you receive it.
