MasterCard, together with United Commercial Bank Limited (UCBL), recently launched three new exclusive payment cards – the Platinum Debit and Credit MasterCard as well as the Imperial Platinum Debit MasterCard.
The exclusive new cards come with a variety of exciting features and unparalleled benefits that provide cardholders with enhanced shopping experiences. Cardholders can shop with greater confidence knowing that their personal card information is protected with MasterCard’s state-of-the-art Chip-and-PIN technology.
For the avid travelers, the MasterCard UCB Platinum Credit & Imperial Debit Card offers access to the exclusive UCB Imperial Lounge at Hazarat Shahjalal International Airport. In addition, the Platinum Credit Card brings amazing benefits such as 0% Instalment Plan, Free Supplementary Cards, Card Cheques, SMS Alerts, eStatements, Internet Banking, and much more. With unsurpassed merchant acceptance, MasterCard is the largest preferred partner network in Bangladesh with over 1,000 partner outlets offering exclusive discounts and privileges. It sounds like a great Credit Card for International Students but it wouldn’t hurt to shop around so people can find the right fit for them.
When used in moderation, credit cards can be incredibly helpful. However if you are not careful they can be an expensive way to borrow, especially if it takes a long time to pay off what you owe or if you cannot pay the balance. That being said, if you are struggling financially with credit card debts, you can learn more about managing your debts by reaching out to a debt relief expert such as CreditAssociates. Ultimately, debt advice can help you to determine how to regain your financial independence in the best possible way for your budget.
Muhammed Ali, Managing Director of United Commercial Bank Limited, said, “We at UCB are firmly committed in our dynamic approach and innovative practices, and today’s launch of the three exclusive MasterCard Cards reflects this dedication. We are proud to join hands with MasterCard and hope to have a long and fruitful partnership where we can continue to push the boundaries together.”
Syed Mohammad Kamal, Country Manager of MasterCard Bangladesh commented, “Security is a top priority at MasterCard and the launch of these Chip-and-PIN products with UCB underscores our commitment to provide cardholders with greater confidence and security when shopping with their MasterCard. Coupled with a wide selection of privileges and benefits, we hope the products launched today will meet the needs of today’s consumers while providing memorable shopping experiences. Our partnership with United Commercial Bank Limited has been a fruitful one and we will continue innovating to better serve the people of Bangladesh.”
The launch ceremony was held at the UCB Corporate Head Office with Muhammed Ali, Managing Director, A.E.A Muhaimen, Additional Managing Director of UCB, Mirza Mahmud Rafiqur Rahman, Additional Managing Director of UCB, Syed Mohammad Kamal, Country Manager and Gitanka D Datta, Vice President of MasterCard Bangladesh as well as other senior officials from both the organizations in attendance.
