One Card in Hand and Prosperous Bay Area
BOC Greater Bay Area Credit Card gives full play to the advantages of cross-border financial services of China Bank, integrates exclusive rights such as "food", "accommodation", "travel" and "purchase", and supports UnionPay China Unionpay Quick Pass and Guangdong-Macao subway buses to pass the card at once, with 3 selected preferential merchants and cardholders enjoying the preferential queuing service in the three outlets. At the same time, the products of the three places have their own bright rights and interests: the Hong Kong version of UnionPay flash payment can enjoy up to 4% cash back and support mobile payment in mainland transportation; Macau version can enjoy China Telecom's all-round Greater Bay Area service discount, and enjoy travel insurance when spending money outside Australia; The mainland version of overseas cash withdrawal is free of the first handling fee, and it is escorted by high travel insurance. Merchants in Hong Kong and Macao can cash back 5%, and consumption abroad can enjoy double points.
China Bank's Greater Bay Area theme debit card will be issued in Guangdong, which can meet the payment needs of Greater Bay Area customers in original currency in three places. The card can support 19 foreign currencies such as Hong Kong dollars, Macao dollars and US dollars in consumption abroad or cash out in original currency, without currency conversion. When the balance of foreign currency in the card is insufficient, it can be paid in RMB, and you can also enjoy the preferential treatment of overseas ATM cash withdrawal without the first monthly fee, and enjoy the preferential service of outlets in three places across the Taiwan Straits. Greater Bay Area-themed debit cards issued in Shenzhen also have the function of "shenzhen tong" payment, which provides convenience for public transportation in Shenzhen. In August, Bank of China will also launch a Greater Bay Area-themed debit card in Macau, which supports both savings and checking accounts, as well as payment in three currencies: Macau, Hong Kong dollars and RMB.
Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area is an important spatial carrier for the country to build a world-class urban agglomeration, with good geographical advantages and solid economic foundation. China Bank will unswervingly serve the national strategy, deeply integrate the strategic goal of "building a world-class bank in the new era" with the national strategy, actively promote product innovation, continuously enrich the cross-border product system, and help Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area to connect with each other.
I believe that the future of Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area's interconnection is just around the corner.
