Whether Financial Transaction and Non-Financial Transaction
All non-financial transactions from any bank’s own ATM are free. However, if non-financial transactions are carried out using a card of one bank from an ATM of another bank, then charges are levied after crossing the specified free number of transactions. This charge varies from bank to bank. Financial transactions involve cash withdrawal, while non-financial transactions include balance inquiry, mini statement, and PIN change.
