Airtel Payments Bank has launched its eco-friendly NCMC (National Common Mobility Cards) enabled debit and prepaid cards. The Bank has entered into partnership with National Payments Corporation of India (NPCI) to launch these interoperable cards.

Airtel Payments Bank has introduced NCMC enabled debit card for its savings account customers and NCMC enabled pre-paid card for the wallet customers.

Both cards are being made from eco-friendly e-PVC material.

Where can the customers use this card

Customers can use any of the cards to make safe, secure and contactless payments at all merchant establishments, online (e-commerce), as well as offline NCMC transit transactions at metros, buses, parking, etc across the country. At metro stations, commuters would just have to tap and go at the gates without the hassle to get in queues and purchase tickets.

The card also enables the issuance of concession and monthly passes wherever supported by the transport operator, eliminating the need to purchase and manage multiple cards for different transport operators.

How can the customers order the NCMC-enabled debit and prepaid cards

Customers can now order Airtel Payments Bank’s NCMC enabled Debit Card from the Airtel Thanks App, or acquire it by visiting the nearest banking points or from any of the designated points at the various metro stations. The NCMC enabled Prepaid Cards will soon be available on online and retail platforms.

I wanted to know that do we need only wallet account with airtel payments bank or a full savings account.

Another is that when we use it for Delhi metro do we get the 10-20% discount, and is it convenient to use as compared to the normal metro card?
I have taken both today.. Even if you don't have wallet account with Airtel then also you can take it. You can later activate it.

And yes we get 10-20% metro discounts on all NCMC Card.

Ofcourse it is convenient that's why most of the people are going for it. We can track all the transaction.. biggest advantage to me.

This is RuPay prepaid NCMC card.

Airtel announced there is another card for Airtel Saving account holder and this is RuPay debit + NCMC Card.

You have only airtel wallet account ? and card issuance charges ?

Attaching screenshot of Debit Card Kit.

Thank you again... I remember because of you only I got DBS Rupay Platinum Card in the initial days of launch. That was also much needed as EasyMyTrip Green Debit Card was totally useless.🙏🙏
