The bank is looking to partner with fintechs to provide services for these kiosks, allowing customers to upload photos or select from design templates, according to a document seen by Mint. "Customers should also be able to set their PIN and manage basic card controls directly at the kiosk," said the document. It could not be ascertained how these proposed kiosks would work.
