A debit card’s expiration date signifies the period during which the card is valid for transactions. Once this date passes, the card becomes unusable for purchases and ATM withdrawals. For example, a card with an expiration date of 12/24 will cease to function after December 2024.
Managing the renewal of a debit card is crucial for maintaining uninterrupted access to funds. Failure to address an expiring card can result in declined transactions, inconvenience, and potential disruption to automated payments. Banks typically issue new cards proactively, minimizing potential disruptions for their customers.
