How to Generate PNB Green PIN for ATM or Credit Cards

When to use PNB Green PIN?

PNB debit card holders can generate PNB Green PIN in two cases.

1. When you receive a new PNB debit card from the bank after opening an account
2. When you want to get a duplicate PIN (In case you forget existing PIN)

How to Generate PNB Green PIN?

1. When You Apply for New Debit Card: When you request a new PNB debit card, the bank will automatically send a Green PIN to the registered cellphone number at the time the debit card is issued. The PIN should be used to produce a debit card PIN within the allotted period since it is only valid for 72 hours from the moment of generation. If the OTP cannot be used within 72 hours, you can request a new OTP by following the instructions in the next step. If you're not able to use the OTP in 72 hours, you can follow the process mentioned in the following step to request a new OTP.

1. To Regenerate Debit Card PIN: Existing PNB debit card users, who wish to regenerate a duplicate PIN, can also use the Green PIN feature to self-generate a duplicate PIN.

To receive a Green PIN, you need to send a text message or SMS in the format mentioned below from your registered mobile number

Once the bank receives the message, it will validate your card number and mobile number and send a six-digit OTP to the same mobile number. The OTP is valid for 3 days or 72 hours from the time of generation and should be used to generate debit card PIN.
