Our verdict

For Sri Lanka based account holders wanting debit spending tied to savings and current accounts, Commercial Bank of Sri Lanka pairs two card types with digital banking and self onboarding. The trade off centres on a home market focus, so value drops for people needing regular banking beyond that market.
