Can I use my social security card to withdraw money from the ATM?

Social security cards can be used to withdraw money from ATMs. Because the current social security card has two accounts, not only social security accounts, but also financial accounts, the insured can use the social security card as a bank card. It has the basic functions of a bank card, and naturally it also includes withdrawing money. In addition, the insured person can also use the social security card to swipe the card for shopping and transfer money.

However, we also need to note that if you want to withdraw money from ATM with social security card, you must first activate the financial account of social security card. If only the social security account of the social security card is activated, but not the financial account, then this social security card does not have the basic functions of a bank card, and the insured person naturally cannot use this social security card as a bank card.

To activate the financial account of the social security card, just go to the designated bank outlet to activate it. The activation procedure is very convenient, and the social security card also has a bank logo. Of course, if there is no money in the financial account of the social security card, it is naturally impossible to withdraw money.

3. Do I need to go to the bank for the social security card?

The social security card can be handled by the unit without going to the bank in person. If the insured person goes directly to apply for a social security card, he can bring his ID card to a nearby bank outlet, or he can bring relevant information directly to the Social Security Bureau. Applicants need to prepare their second-generation ID card and photo receipt issued by the photo studio for social security.

Generally speaking, for rural residents and flexible employees in cities and towns, village committees, communities or neighborhood committees are responsible for collecting the application materials of the insured, and finally handing them over to the corresponding commercial banks for batch card processing. Of course, you can also go to the social security card service window of the social security department where you retire.
