What is a zip code on a debit card?

A zip code on a debit card is typically used as an additional security measure when making a transaction. When making an online purchase or using an ATM, you may be asked to enter the zip code associated with your debit card to verify your identity. This helps protect against unauthorized use of your card by someone who may have stolen it.

It's important to keep your zip code information secure and not share it with anyone else. If you suspect that someone may have obtained your zip code or if you believe your card information has been compromised, contact your bank or card issuer immediately to report the issue and prevent fraudulent charges.
