What PMNT/CCRD/CWDL means

A bank transaction code classifies an entry in three levels, each narrower than the last. Read together, PMNT/CCRD/CWDL reads Payments › Customer Card Transactions › Cash Withdrawal.

  • PMNT (Payments). Every movement of funds between parties, such as transfers, direct debits, cheques, cards and cash.
  • CCRD (Customer Card Transactions). Payments and cash with the account owner’s debit or credit card.
  • CWDL (Cash Withdrawal).

Where it sits in a camt.053

The code is in each entry’s BkTxCd/Domn block, the same way in camt.052, camt.053 and camt.054 and in every version from .001.02 to .001.13:

camt.053.001.08 · an entry
<Ntry>
  <Amt Ccy="EUR">1250.00</Amt>
  <CdtDbtInd>DBIT</CdtDbtInd>
  <Sts><Cd>BOOK</Cd></Sts>
  <BkTxCd>
    <Domn>
      <Cd>PMNT</Cd>
      <Fmly>
        <Cd>CCRD</Cd>
        <SubFmlyCd>CWDL</SubFmlyCd>
      </Fmly>
    </Domn>
  </BkTxCd>
  …
</Ntry>

Banks may add their own code in BkTxCd/Prtry, next to the ISO code or instead of it (a German bank’s three-digit business transaction code, for example). Prefer the ISO code for rules that should work across banks.

What the entry carries

Card withdrawals may carry the ATM’s location or terminal in AddtlNtryInf or CardTx; a fee charged for the withdrawal can be a separate entry.

In an MT940

An MT940 has no ISO code: each :61: statement line carries a three-letter transaction type, and none of them matches this code reliably; banks often use a generic one such as NTRF or NMSC.

The MT940 Viewer converts MT940 to camt.053, and keeps the :61: type as a proprietary code (BkTxCd/Prtry, issuer SWIFT) rather than guessing an ISO code. All the types are in the MT940 transaction type codes.
