Do you know that you can register your email ID online for your SBI account? Perhaps you have arrived at this page as a result of that.
In this post, we will walk you through the online process of setting up your email ID with your SBI bank account.
Having a bank account with a registered email address may have a number of advantages while operating a bank account. There are numerous benefits that can be summed up as follows:
- For getting online statements of account. Whenever you request a statement of account or if a mandate is given to deliver your statement monthly or quarterly, your bank will mail it to you in PDF format.
- Any updates from your bank will be communicated to you via email.
- Banks usually ask to send any form of document from the registered email so that they can accept the papers without any issues. Mail from unregistered email addresses may not be served.
You can register your email ID with the bank online or by visiting the bank.
Registering online is super easy, and it does not take much time. The process might take a few minutes to complete. All you need is an Internet connection and other data, such as an RMN-registered mobile number.

Email ID registration at the SBI Branch.
When you are unable to register your email ID with both of the above-mentioned processes, you always have the last option, which is manual registration at the SBI branch.
For this, either you need to fill up the standard format available over the counter or you may just write an application stating your requirements. When doing so, the bank may ask for the identification of the account owner.
Usually, your ID cards, such as an Aadhaar card, voter card, driver’s licence, or passport, may serve the purpose. Submit your application to the concerned staff, and from there, your email ID will be registered to your bank account in no time.
