Meeza Card is Egypt’s prepaid and debit card system that was introduced to facilitate digital financial transactions, promote financial inclusion, and provide a secure means of payment for citizens.
The card is issued by Egyptian banks and operates under the supervision of the Central Bank of Egypt and is designed to support the country’s move towards a cashless society.
Some customers wonder what to do if they forget the Meeza card PIN?
It should be noted that if the PIN for the Meeza prepaid card is forgotten, the PIN must be reset through any branch of the bank from which the card was issued, and then a new PIN is generated by the customer through any ATM machine belonging to the bank from which the Meeza card was issued.
