Why must the debit card of Shanghai Pudong Development Bank be activated at the counter?

Pufa debit card must be activated at the counter, because my mobile phone number needs to be bound to activate the bank card. The process is as follows:

1. Bring your ID card and bank card to the bank outlet;

2. Fill in the form with the assistance of the staff in the bank lobby;

3. Take the number and queue up;

4. Dial the number of the counter and go to the counter to bind the mobile phone according to the prompts;

5. Processing is completed.

Note: Debit cards opened by individuals can be used directly without activation. Debit cards opened in batches need to be activated. Inactive bank cards belong to sleep accounts and cannot be operated. I need to bring my bank card and ID card to the counter of the issuing bank to activate the bank card before I can use it normally.
