Cardless Cash Withdrawal

Cardless Cash Withdrawal is a businessONLINE feature which allows you to provide special access to third parties (with a UAE mobile number and Emirates ID), to withdraw a specified amount of cash from your account through any Emirates Islamic ATM.

Once you register a person as a beneficiary through businessONLINE, you can log in and initiate a transaction by specifying details such as amount and beneficiary's mobile number. Inform the nominated person about the amount which he/she is allowed to withdraw. Once the request is initiated online, the beneficiary will receive an authorization code via SMS on their UAE mobile number with which they can visit any Emirates Islamic ATM and withdraw the specified amount of cash.

Any businessONLINE user who has access to the Own Account Payments option, can access Cardless Cash Withdrawal option.
