What is a cash withdrawal?

Cash withdrawals electronically convert funds from your bank account, savings, or pension to physical cash in hand. Cash deposits work exactly the same way, only in reverse—physical money is deposited and digitally added back into the linked account.

Withdrawing cash from the bank

If you visit a branch of your bank, a representative will handle your transaction in person. Take your debit card, or a form of ID and your account details, and they can process the withdrawal for you, as long as you have enough funds.

Withdrawing cash via cashback

You can withdraw money at many retail stores when making a debit card purchase—the requested amount is added to your bill total, then given to you in cash. You’ll later see the withdrawal in your account statement.

Withdrawing cash using an ATM

Automated teller machines (ATMs) link your debit card to your checking account, giving you full access to your funds. As most machines accept all cards, you can most likely use any ATM, no matter who you bank with.
