Bank Asia Introduces Scan to Cash: A Revolutionary Cash Withdrawal Service
Bank Asia PLC has revolutionized banking by introducing Scan to Cash, a QR code-based cash withdrawal service [1][2]. This innovative service allows customers to withdraw cash from any Bank Asia branch without the need for cheques or debit cards, providing a fast, convenient, and seamless banking experience.
The service was inaugurated on 12 August 2025 at Bank Asia Tower Branch, Karwan Bazar, Dhaka, by ANM Mahfuz, Additional Managing Director of the bank, in the presence of S M Anisuzzaman, Mirza Azhar Ahmad, and Syed Zulkar Nayen, along with other senior officials [3][4].
To use Scan to Cash, customers simply need to open the Bank Asia Smart App on their smartphone, scan the unique QR code displayed at the cash counter, enter the desired withdrawal amount, and authenticate the transaction using a one-time password (OTP) [1][2]. After successful verification, the teller hands over the cash, and the customer's account is instantly debited by the withdrawal amount.
The service eliminates the need for traditional cheques or debit cards, offering a modern alternative to conventional withdrawal methods. Customers can perform up to five transactions per day with a daily withdrawal limit of BDT 300,000 [1][2].
Here's a step-by-step guide to using Scan to Cash:
