About the SBI Green PIN

Previously, the PIN generation associated with your ATM card was generated by the bank officials of the bank where you have created or generated your bank account for savings or any other propaganda.

You had to apply for the PIN to be generated, and then the branch officials provide you with a carbon-emitted paper envelope with scratch-off panels where a number of 4 digits are encrypted, and that number was set as your ATM PIN through the system by the branch officials.

But in recent times, SBI has come forward to upgrade this process by introducing ‘SBI Green PIN‘ with the intention of providing the customers the benefit of generating or re-setting the PIN of their ATM card according to their convenience.

Different ways to generate SBI Green PIN

A very important point to remember is that this Green PIN is not actually the original PIN via which the transactions will be done. This Green PIN is actually used for generating the original PIN to do further proceedings. The different ways for generation of the particular SBI Green PIN are listed below, let’s take a look:

  • Via Internet Banking method
  • Via SMS method
  • Via ATM Centres
  • Via Customer Care Service

Generate SBI ATM PIN By SMS

The SBI ATM PIN generation via SMS is one of the easiest and convenient ways of generating the PIN. The required steps for such activity are mentioned below:

After sending the SMS as a reply, you will receive a temporary PIN which is actually your SBI Green PIN. Then you have to visit a nearby SBI ATM Centre and set your final ATM PIN by entering the temporary PIN in the machine. The temporary PIN will be valid for only 24 hours prior to the time when you have received it. So you have to change the ATM pin before 24 hours.
