OREANDA-NEWS. Each day Ukrainians buy more than 15 thousand railway tickets via PrivatBank. Since the beginning of 2015 the bank has sold more than 3.2 million train tickets. Now the bank's customers have a new opportunity to save on travelling during the winter holidays.

PrivatBank in collaboration with MasterCard launched a New Year promotion for Ukrainian travelers. From 15 December to 15 January, 2016 everyone who purchases two or more train tickets via PrivatBank and pays by a MasterCard card, will be able to order a half-price taxi transfer to the train station.

"Buying tickets via the bank is fast, safe and much more comfortable than at station booking offices or on other websites,” - says Mykhailo Rogalskyi, PrivatBank Head of Payments and Transfers. - “In addition, only while purchasing tickets at our bank buyers can participate in the promotions that we carry out together with MasterCard”.

Cardholders of any type of MasterCard payment system cards issued by PrivatBank can participate in the New Year's ticket promotion offer. To receive a half price taxi ride from the bank, you just need to buy two or more train tickets during the promotion period and pay by MasterCard card. Before the ride, you only need to call a taxi to the train station via Privat24 (privat24.ua or mobile application Privat24), and the bank will debit the card only half of the cost of the taxi ride.

It takes only a few minutes to buy a digital ticket for any railway destination via PrivatBank’s special website bilet.pb.ua, Internetbanking system Privat24, the bank’s branches or self-service terminals. Moreover, PrivatBank provides 24/7 service for travel documents via short mobile number 3700. The price of the ticket, purchased at PrivatBank is the same as in the station booking office. There is no need to exchange these tickets for hard-copies at the booking office.
