How to know bank account number from ATM card

You cannot get your bank account number directly from your ATM card, but the card can give you clues and help you find the number using the following methods:


1. Look at the ATM Card for Clues

  • Some banks print the bank account number on the ATM card itself. Check the front or back of the card to see if your account number is printed.

2. Check Your Bank Statement

  • Use your ATM card to access your account via:
    • Online banking.
    • A printed bank statement from the ATM or branch.
  • Your account number will typically appear on the statement.

3. Use Mobile or Internet Banking

  • Log in to your bank’s mobile app or website using the credentials associated with your ATM card.
  • Go to Account Details or My Accounts to find your account number.

4. Visit an ATM

  • Insert your ATM card and select the option to view Account Details or request a mini-statement.
  • Some ATMs display the account number on the receipt or screen.

5. Call Customer Service

  • Contact your bank’s customer service using the helpline number provided on the ATM card.
  • Verify your identity by answering security questions, and request your account number.

6. Visit a Bank Branch

  • Take your ATM card and a valid ID to your bank branch.
  • A bank representative can provide your account number after verifying your identity.

Important Notes:

  • Account Number ≠ Card Number: The 16-digit number on the front of your ATM card is your card number, not your bank account number.
  • Keep your ATM card and your details secure. Always ensure unauthorized parties do not use them.
