Tap on #ContactlessKhushiyan and get closer to your loved ones- just like your favourite influencers

With the world going through the process of ‘unlock’, this pandemic is propelling a shift towards a cashless society as a part of the ‘New Normal.’ With the constant fear to fight Coronavirus, people are trying their best to maintain physical distance as interactions have switched to virtual and communication now occurs through the barriers of masks.
Going ‘contactless’ is the safest and the most responsible way ahead during the new normal. For all the times you have stopped yourself from enjoying with your loved ones or taken a step back from surprising your ‘special’ one, thinking about maintaining social distance, you don’t have to do it anymore. Yes, you can now bring a smile to your loved ones, while keeping them safe and secure.
To encourage people to grow closer to each other’s hearts by making simple yet valuable gestures, and show care, love for people during the current period, SBI Card launched a very thoughtful campaign called ‘Contactless Connections’. The campaign brought happiness and inspired millions to stay safe and maintain social distancing by using the contactless payment options of SBI Card- SBI Card Pay, Scan & Pay and Contactless SBI Credit Card. It also taught people to show love for others as the value of these emotions and gestures is more than what money can buy during the current times.
Take a look at this sweet and heartwarming gesture by one of India’s most loved influencers, Vatsal Sheth. With his Contactless SBI Card, here’s how he surprised his wife, Ishita Sheth with a movie date night at home.

Aww, right? We know! That was so adorable. If that made you miss that someone special, go ahead and spread #ContactlessKhushiyan with SBI Card’s contactless payment solutions. Talking about being adorable, you cannot miss Durjoy Dutta’s little munchkins Rayna and Brahmi who are a pure bundle of joy. As the pandemic has affected most of the sectors, education is one of them. Shutting of schools gave way to online classes, but his girls were so excited to start their school life this year. To make his girls’ experience beyond online classes, he created him a little school inside his house.

Isn’t this the cutest thing? SBI Card helped Durjoy buy stationery, school bags and all the essentials without having to touch the POS machine, swiping the card or entering the card PIN. No wonder this made his girls say, ‘Baba is the best’, and we couldn’t agree more. Just like fathers, we also have mothers who constantly pamper their kids and are trying to make the best out of every difficult situation. One thing that most of the kids have loved about the lockdown period is that they got to spend so much time at home with their family that they wouldn’t have got otherwise and such is the story of one of India’s popular influencers Akanksha Redhu.

Akanksha gratefully talks about her beautiful experience of spending so much time with her mom and appreciating everything her mom does for her. Watch this mother-daughter duo who are winning hearts as Akanksha is spreading #ContactlessKhushiyan by giving her mom some ‘me’ time to sit back, relax and enjoy.
What a great thought, Akanksha! Staying Contactless and happy is now so easy with just a tap of Contactless SBI Card on the NFC enabled POS machine to make instant payments of up to Rs. 2,000 and you can easily avoid any physical contact. So, when are you going for contactless shopping to make your mom’s favourite food while she takes a break from household chores? Oh! Does the mention of ‘break’ also remind you that you have promised your best friend to spend an evening together? Well, then just like you, Kritika Khurana, one of India’s favourite fashion bloggers, is dealing with the same. She spread some #ContactlessConnections by ordering for her best friend, his favourite ice-cream using the Scan to Pay feature of SBI Card.

There are also a host of other popular influencers who were spreading #ContactlessKhushiyan with SBI Card. Let’s check out their stories too!

You can also surprise your loved ones with a beautiful gesture, and we are sure this will make your Contactless Connections stronger. The lockdown period has definitely taught everyone some big lessons and one of them is the importance of family and all our loved ones because, at the end of the day, a smile on the face is what matters the most. So, take a pledge to #StayContactlessStayHappy
