• Add funds to the UPI Lite wallet (up to Rs 2,000 at a time).
• Make instant payments at shops, stalls, or for travel without waiting for bank approval.

2. Use SBI ATMs and Debit Cards

• Withdraw cash from any SBI or other bank ATM.
• Check your account balance at ATMs.
• Make payments at POS terminals using your SBI debit card.
• Use the card for utility bills or delivery payments.
