PNC Card Free Access FAQs
Active PNC debit and banking cards are eligible for Card Free ATM Access. Cards not eligible for this feature include deposit only cards, credit cards, and non-PNC cards.
Your card may not be eligible for this feature.
For joint account owners, you must have your own user ID and password in order to access your card in the app. Customers can enroll in mobile banking directly in the PNC Mobile app or at www.pnc.com. You will need your Social Security number, the PIN associated with your debit card, and your account number to enroll.
No, your one-time access code can be used only once to gain access at the ATM. Just like when you use your card, you can complete multiple transactions with the re-entry of your PIN. As soon as you return to the welcome screen, the session is complete.
Please ensure that you entered the entire 8-digit code correctly. Your active code also displays after you sign in to the PNC Mobile app. Your active code is valid for 30 minutes from the request or until it's successfully used at an ATM. If the code still isn't working, it may be expired, and you will need to request a new code in the app.
On rare occasions, Card Free Access may not be available at some ATMs due to maintenance. During this time, you can insert your debit card to complete a transaction.
If you believe a problem or error occurred contact PNC immediately via Customer Service at 1-888-PNCBANK, the help center in the PNC Mobile app or visit a PNC Branch.

Additional Features/FAQs
- Chip Cards at PNC ATMs
- Account Selection
- ATM Preferences
- Change Card PINs
- E-Receipt Feature
Chip Cards are now enabled at PNC ATMs, making your experience even more convenient and easy. Depending on the type of ATM, your banking experience may vary.






You will need to know your existing PIN to initiate this service. The customer must select the ‘More Choices’ button to get to the PIN Change screen. For added security, PNC will always mail a notice to your registered address whenever your PIN is changed.
As an enhanced option, PNC customers will be able to choose an e-receipt. This means that ATM receipts will be sent to the primary e-mail address customers have registered with PNC. Customers will not be able to alter or input an e-mail address at the ATM. When a user chooses the e-receipt option, that user will be shown the e-mail address on file and asked to confirm that it is correct.



Frequently Asked Questions
Q. What is a chip card?
A. A chip card enhances card security for electronic payments when inserted in the chip card reader (not swiped) of a chip-enabled terminal. The chip generates a unique transaction code which is shared with the ATM processor. This makes the card difficult to copy.
Q. What is EMV?
A. Chip cards are based on a global card payment standard called EMV, currently used in more than 80 countries. There are more than 3.4 billion chip cards issued across the globe.
Q. Will my chip card prevent all fraudulent activity?
A. No. Your chip card provides an additional layer of security at chip-enabled terminals; however, perpetrators continue to look for new opportunities to commit fraud. PNC will continue to provide 24-hour fraud monitoring and your PNC Visa® debit and credit come with Zero Liability Fraud Protection[7].
Q. How do I know if I have a chip card?
A. If you have a chip card, the chip is located on the front of the card. You will still have a magnetic stripe on the back so that you can use it at merchants who don’t accept chip cards yet.
Q. What does a chip-enabled ATM look like?
A. Chip-enabled ATMs have all of the features that you are used to. You likely won’t notice any physical difference between a magnetic stripe ATM and a chip-enabled ATM.
Q. How do I know if an ATM accepts chip cards?
A. Insert your card into the ATM with the chip facing up as you normally would. If the ATM is chip-enabled, the machine will recognize the chip on your card and will guide you through the transaction.
Q. What should I expect when using my chip card at a chip-enabled ATM?
A. Depending on the type of ATM, your experience may differ slightly.
If your card is not visible, use these basic steps for a successful ATM transaction:
1. Insert your card into the ATM with the chip facing up. The machine will recognize the chip and keep your card within the machine.
2. Follow the ATM screen prompts to complete your transaction.
3. The machine will indicate when you should remove your card; do so and take your cash.
Q. What if I remove my card before the ATM prompts me to do so?
A. If your card is removed prior to the prompt, the terminal and your card may be damaged. If there is no visible damage to your card and the machine returns to the welcome screen, you can attempt the transaction again. If the machine states it is out of service, then you will need to use a different ATM. If your card is physically damaged or denied by the ATM, you will need to call PNC at 1-888-PNC-BANK, or visit a branch, and go through the process of ordering a new card.
Q. Can I still use my chip card at a non-chip-enabled ATM or merchant terminal?
A. Yes. Your card will have a chip and a magnetic stripe to accommodate any situation.
Q. What if the ATM doesn't accept chip cards?
A. Cards will still have a magnetic stripe on the back, so even if a terminal or ATM is not yet chip-enabled, you can still use your card.
Q. Where can I find more information about using my chip card at merchant terminals?
A. Visit pnc.com/chipcard for more information about using your chip card for transactions at merchant terminals.
Q. I had a ATM Preference profile set up and I am being asked to set up another. Why?
A. Profiles created prior to the ATM upgrades are not compatible with the upgraded platform. However, a new profile can be created in only a few seconds. This can be done at the ATM terminal, any branch location, online or through PNC’s Customer Care line at 1-888-PNC-BANK.
Q. Is there any risk in having two ATM Preference profiles?
A. No. The responses to the Personalization questions do not house any information where personal information could be compromised.
Q. Why can only PNC account holders utilize the e-receipt option?
A. PNC does not record the e-mail addresses of customers who are not PNC account holders.
Q. Why can't I change my e-mail address at the ATM?
A. For your security, PNC does not allow account holders to change their e-mail address at the ATM. This can easily be done at any branch location, through Online Banking or through PNC’s customer Care line at 1-888-PNC-BANK.
Q. When can I change my profile?
A. Immediately. On the main menu screen there is an option to edit profiles. Following the screen options will enable you to make changes. You can also make changes through Online Banking.
