Some of us value privacy and cash forms of payment so much that we do not use a card issued by a bank or give it up completely. Others prefer to use applications such as BLIK on their smartphones.

One-time withdrawal limit from IT Card / Planet Cash ATMs
The two largest payment organizations, Visa and MasterCard, have czech republic whatsapp database to limit the limit for a single ATM withdrawal to PLN 1,000. This was announced in 2020 by IT Card, the operator of the PlanetCash network. With a network of over 4.5 thousand devices, the Planet Cash network, like Euronet, has decided to introduce a limit for a single ATM withdrawal with a card of PLN 1,000.

Reasons for introducing restrictions

Cash availability requirements for a wider group of customers. Caused by increased withdrawals of larger amounts, expressed during the Coronavirus pandemic.
A fixed fee for a single withdrawal, which the bank pays to the ATM operator in the amount of PLN 1.3. This has not changed for many years and is independent of the amount of a single withdrawal from the device. The fee may be different when the ATM operator has a direct agreement with the bank that issued the card.
