What is a Bank Mitra?
A Bank Mitra (Customer Service Point / CSP) acts as the authorised representative of a bank in areas where opening a full branch isn't feasible — bringing essential financial services directly to rural and semi-urban communities.
What You'll Do
As a CSP you become a one-stop financial touchpoint for your neighbourhood.
Help citizens open zero-balance savings accounts under PMJDY quickly and easily.
Accept cash deposits on behalf of the partner bank into customer accounts.
Enable Aadhaar-based withdrawals using a micro-ATM for quick, secure access.
Enroll customers in Jeevan Jyoti Bima Yojana and Suraksha Bima Yojana.
Register workers in the government-backed retirement pension scheme.
Facilitate inter-bank remittances and transfer funds between accounts.
Why Become a Bank Mitra?
Competitive compensation, flexible hours, and the pride of bringing banking to the unbanked.
All Bank Mitras receive a guaranteed base salary of ₹5,000 per month from the partner bank, irrespective of transaction volume.

Fill in the CSP application form on this website and upload your documents. Select the bank you wish to partner with and the location you propose to serve.
Each bank conducts its own screening process. You may be invited for a brief interview or field verification before approval is granted.
Once approved, you will receive training on banking processes and a biometric micro-ATM device to begin serving customers in your community.
