Any owner of a Sberbank card periodically faces the need to clarify the balance of funds on it. This is necessary in order to control your spending, timely detect technical failures (if any), and pay the loan on time and in full (if the card is credit).

Checking the balance of a Sberbank card is not difficult - any client can handle it, even the one who holds a credit card for the first time. When mastering the basics of using a payment card, it is advisable to familiarize yourself with all the ways to carry out the same operations, then it will be easier to choose the best option for yourself.

The most affordable way to check the balance of the Sberbank card is to go to the office of this institution and find out about it from the teller or at the cash desk. Here, if necessary, you can get other information about the use of the card and other banking products.

If going to the bank is not very convenient, or there is simply no time for it, you can check the balance of the Sberbank card at its nearest ATM. Ohow to do it correctly is described in detail in the instructions for using the ATM, which is handed to each client who receives a card at the bank. If you lose the instructions, you can try to act without it, because the Sberbank ATM menu is quite convenient, and the items are located quite logically, so most customers will cope with this operation simply by looking at the device screen and following the prompts.

Both the first and second options are quite convenient, but both of them involve the need to leave your home or office and go in search of a bank branch or ATM. If the client does not have such an opportunity, he can check the balance of the Sberbank card via the Internet. True, for this, in addition to the card itself, you will need a computer with an Internet connection, as well as a login and password to enter your account (this service is available to all bank customers who have opened at least 1 account).

The login is obtained in advance directly at the bank or via a multi-channel phone (the number should be checked on the website or on the envelope in which the card was), and passwords for entering - at the ATM. It is important to note that this option works great not only within the Russian Federation, but also around the world. The main thing is the presence of unused passwords and Internet access.

Another way to remotely check the balance on the Sberbank card is to send an SMS message to service number 900. The text of the message must indicate the 5 rightmost digits in the card number. But forIn order to access this service, you need to connect in advance to the “mobile banking” service, which is usually offered to every cardholder. This service allows not only to clarify the balance, but also to carry out other operations remotely. However, the bank will have to pay extra for it.

For customers who want to remotely check the balance of a Sberbank card, but are not connected to any of the additional services, there is an easier option - a call to customer support. True, in this case (for identification purposes) you will have to answer the questions of the operator.

Each client of the bank can use any of the above services at his own discretion and depending on the circumstances. At the same time, it is extremely important to master at least 2 options, so that in the absence of the opportunity to use the most familiar method and easily find a replacement for it.
