IMPORTANT FOR SERBIAN CITIZENS: If you withdraw money at ATMs of another bank, this is what you need to know

All financial institutions have also prescribed minimum commission amounts when withdrawing cash from a nematic ATM. That amount ranges from 20 to 240 dinars, depending on the bank that issued the card. Some banks make a difference, so raising a dune is cheaper than in the case of “visa” or “master” debit “plastic”.

The amount of the commission is determined by the bank in which the customer has an account, ie. the bank that issued the payment card to the user, who withdraws cash at another bank’s ATM. A simple calculation shows that it is not profitable to raise smaller amounts. If the minimum commission is, say, 200 dinars and two percent for larger amounts, the same commission will be paid by the one who collects 500 dinars, as well as the one who collects 10,000 dinars. It turns out that for the second it is really two percent, for the first it is even 40 percent!

Data on the fee prescribed by payment service providers for withdrawing cash from vending machines can be found on individual banks’ websites, but since last year also on the website of the National Bank of Serbia. The reason, as explained in the NBS, is to ensure the comparability of these commissions, but also of others that have to do with the withdrawal of money and payments between different banks.

In the section “Rates of payment service providers related to payment accounts”, you can find information on the price of withdrawing cash from ATMs in the country and abroad. Fees related to credit cards are also shown separately in the “Cash and Payment Cards” section.

COMPENSATION

The PADRE bank that issues payment cards charges its customer a fee for withdrawing cash at another bank’s ATM and through this fee reimburses the amount of the service fee, as well as any other cost related to said transaction. When withdrawing cash at the bank’s ATM, which is both the issuer and acceptor of the payment card, there is no specific service fee, so banks do not charge a fee for withdrawing cash at their own ATM.

According to the data of that site, Halkbank has the lowest minimum commission for withdrawing money at other ATMs, where that amount is 20 dinars, if “dune” is used, while with “visa” it is one percent and one minimum of 60 dinars. With the “dune”, the minimum commission in the NLB bank is 20 dinars, but it is seven times higher with the “master”. At MTS bank, the commission is 1.2 percent and at least 30 dinars, as at Jubmes bank.
