Niyo travellers’ tales
I have been using the Niyo DCB debit card as well Equitas debit card for POS payments in UK, Europe, Turkey, Bahrain, Dubai and Azerbaijan. I have taken out minimal cash from ATM but most of the transactions have been from POS and few times online, while paying visa fee. Transactions have been smooth and the TCS also is refunded in short time.

I watched a video about the Niyo card on YouTube and decided to get one for myself and my parents. Since receiving the card, I've used it in the UAE and found it to be widely accepted everywhere. My experience with Niyo has been fantastic!
Karan Parekh15 August 2022
During our recent trip to Dubai, the Niyo card was a lifesaver. We used it everywhere, just like a regular ATM card and it never let us down. Whether we were dining out or shopping, the Niyo card was there, making everything easy and hassle-free. It really made our trip a lot smoother and we'll definitely be taking it with us on our future travels.
