OREANDA-NEWS. January 09, 2007. Ukrsotsbank entered the TOP-4 largest banks-issuers of payment cards, having issued during this period approximately 3 million 20 thousand 495 cards as of the eleven months of 2007, reported the press-centre of Ukrsotsbank.

"Ukrsotsbank is among the leaders on the volume of issuance of payment cards, having issued more than three million. Our cards have become popular when allowed to perform transactions without visiting branches, - Deputy Chairwoman of the USB, Iryna Kniazeva says. - After all, when a client comes and gets card he can work with it, not only through the branches, but also through sms-banking, Contact Centre. These services enable busy people to spend a minimum of time on their own calculations.

Next year the bank cards will have even more functions. For example, the client can get the card at a distance - via the Internet and Contact Center. Also, the sms-banking possibilities are also growing. In the new year USB will offer new opportunities for salary projects and owners of card deposit accounts".
