Let’s say you are about to use your Debit card for making an online transaction. If you have a Maestro Card, you’ll observe that there will be no Expiry date or CVV number nor can you register for MasterCard security code for additional security. Hence you won’t be able to complete online transactions using your Maestro Labelled Debit card issued by most banks.
This is also the case when you want to verify your Maestro card in your Paypal account.
However, Maestro cards issued by some banks such as The Royal Bank of Scotland or the HSBC Bank can be used to register for a MasterCard security code and also will have an expiry date.
Where can the Maestro card be used?
Since most Maestro Cards cannot be used for online transactions, you are only left with using the card physically at retail stores. You can produce your Maestro card at stores that accept debit cards to pay for your shopping bills. The amount will be directly debited from the bank account that is linked with that Maestro card.
Mostly, Maestro Debit cards will be issued as ATM cum Debit cards (famously by SBI in India) when you open a Savings or Current account. Hence, if you have Internet Banking enabled for that account, you can perform online transactions using Internet Banking (if option is available) which will be the same as performing transactions with your Maestro Debit card online.
Did you know that, even though Maestro card is not a Credit card you can earn reward points? See SBI Debit card reward points (link).
Maestro card (and Cirrus) are from the same family as MasterCard.

sbi atm-cum-debit card has neither an expiring date nor a CVV no. And its so obvious that we cannot shop online with our cards., Its so unfair.! But a solution recently cropped up and it is to register 4 internet banking where we’ll get a confidential password by which we can shop online. Good luck fellow citizens, i gotta go get a internet banking form myself.
You can indeed shop with any State Bank ATM cum Debit cards in sites which has support for Maestro cards. In the place where you’ll enter CVV code, you’ll enter your ATM cards’ 4 digit PIN.

lots of email correspondence has taken place w.r.t. Maestro debit card of SBI. The main topic of discussion is acceptance level of the card for online purchases. E-Commerce websites have not listed Maestro cards as one of their preferred cards, thereby defeating the very purpose of the card. There are other merchant pos where this card is not accepted. On the whole, it appears that this Card is the least preferred in Commerce. I wonder what made SBI to tie up with this card, when Mastercard or Visa is more preferable to all commercial establishments. As if this card is for the common man and Visa is for the elite a/c holders, they have a policy for giving Visa card for a/c holders who maintain a QAB of RS 50000 and that too on request. Even smaller Banks offer VISA debit cards by default for an a/c holder. Hence I don’t understand the move of SBI to make this a PRIVILEGE card for the high and mighty.
I feel sympathy for the people at helm of affairs for their lack of common sense.
