How to Activate my Credit Card?

A. Knowing how to activate a credit card should be your first concern when getting a new one. Well, you can activate your card online by visiting the bank’s website and entering your registered mobile number, date of birth and other information. Once the bank receives your request, they will send an OTP for the verification and as you enter the same your card will be ready to use.

Can I transfer money from my credit card to my bank account?
