The credit card PIN plays a crucial role in ensuring the safety of your credit card. IndusInd Bank lets you set/reset and generate your credit card PIN via several online and offline options with ease.
Credit cards have fairly robust fraud protections that are often regarded as superior to those that come with debit cards. One of the critical elements of a credit card’s security features is its personal identification number PIN. In simple words, a credit card PIN is a four-digit code allotted to you or selected by you after you open your credit card account. This PIN is used to verify your identity as the owner of your credit card, thereby protecting you against fraud. In India, entering the credit card PIN is mandatory for completing any POS or ATM transaction.
How Does a Credit Card PIN Work?
Whenever you use your credit card, you are required to enter your PIN to authorise the transaction. The moment you enter your PIN, the payment system is automated to match it with your user ID and enable the transaction. This way, banks ensure that every transaction made using your credit card is authorised by you, the credit card owner, and not anybody else. This is why you are constantly advised not to share your credit card PIN with anyone, not even bank officials.
