With vacation season just around the corner, it's crucial to have a reliable payment method for your travels. Luckily, Rosselkhozbank has a solution – UnionPay cards, which have been their partnership since 2017 with UnionPay International. Already, over 11,000 residents of Altai have reaped the benefits of a two-currency card.

Take it from client Irina Knyazeva, who shares her experience using UnionPay: "I've been using a UnionPay card for years. This year, my sister and I decided to take a trip to Thailand. We renewed our UnionPay cards and were grateful to discover that only Rosselkhozbank UnionPay cards were accepted in Thailand, making our vacation hassle-free."

Tatiana Rudenko, deputy director of the Altai regional branch of RSHB, explains the options for customers: "We offer both debit UnionPay cards and Mir-UnionPay co-branded cards. The plastic card's issuance and maintenance are completely free. With a UnionPay card from Rosselkhozbank, you can make banking transactions both at home and abroad, including payments in stores and cafes, transferring funds, and more."

You can apply for your UnionPay debit card or Mir-UnionPay co-branded card via the mobile app or the bank's website, or visit any RSHB office. To be eligible, you must be a Russian citizen or non-resident age 14 or older with a passport. The application requires passport and personal data, card parameters, and contact information.

Rosselkhozbank offers diverse tariff plans, including premium options, allowing customers to make payments for goods and services using bank cards, mobile phones, or other payment methods in over 180 countries. Most transactions (over 80%) are made in Russia, with common categories including cash withdrawals, store and café payments, supermarket, grocery store, pharmacy, and gas station purchases.

When Russians travel abroad, UnionPay cards are frequently used in the UAE, Thailand, Turkey, Italy, and Spain. However, the most significant spending occurred in Italy, the UAE, and Turkey. The main spending categories were cash withdrawals, clothing purchases, and accommodation payments.
