If you have a GT Bank account, you might be happy to use your debit card to make cash withdrawals. But you actually do not need to! Thanks to their cardless withdrawal feature, which they call “GT-Rescue”, you can also set up a withdrawal from your phone or via e-banking, before heading to the ATM of your choice to get your money. And there are several ways to do so, depending on your favorite way to bank: in this article, we’ll show you set up a cardless withdrawal using either the GTBank USSD code, the GTBank mobile banking app, or the GTBank e-banking website.
Setting up your Cardless Withdrawal
