Explanation

Punjab National Bank (PNB) was the first nationalized bank in India to launch a signature-based debit card scheme. This innovation allowed customers to make purchases by signing a receipt rather than using a PIN, which was a common standard for early debit cards. It helped in increasing the acceptance of cards at merchant outlets.
