Techcombank accompanies urban railway line No. 1, promoting green transport development

Also on this occasion, Techcombank launched a 50% refund promotion for Metro Line 1 tickets for customers using Techcombank Visa Eco payment cards.

The event is an opportunity for Techcombank to affirm its pioneering position in promoting green transportation with the city, accompanying customers on the journey of sustainable mobility. In the context of rapid urbanization as it is today, the Metro railway system is not only a solution to reduce traffic congestion, but also contributes to reducing emissions and building a sustainable green environment.

Techcombank’s partnership with the city to promote digital payments in public transport not only creates convenience for customers, but also serves as a driving force to change consumer habits, moving towards a comprehensive digital economy. On that journey, Techcombank always brings smart, safe and convenient payment solutions, helping customers easily access modern transaction methods and optimize their travel experience.

Metro Line 1 passengers can now enjoy the convenience of cashless payment by using Techcombank cards or contactless payment methods such as Apple Pay/Samsung Pay/Google Wallet... to buy tickets directly at the counter, buy on the HURC app, or tap on the control device at the entrance gate (tap-in) and at the exit gate (tap-out) after finishing the trip to quickly complete the payment transaction. In particular, Techcombank Visa Eco cardholders will enjoy a 50% refund of the ticket price when using this form of public transport. Thereby contributing to spreading the habit of green living, friendly to the environment in the community.

This is because the Techcombank Visa Eco payment card line is a pioneer in promoting a green lifestyle. The card is made from bio-based, recyclable materials, helping to reduce plastic waste and carbon footprint. In addition, the card also integrates greenhouse gas measurement technology on each transaction, allowing customers to track CO₂ emissions based on the sector and spending value.

Along with the Techcombank Visa Eco payment card, Techcombank's cashless payment solutions are contributing to building a smart and sustainable transportation ecosystem, in line with the development trends of major cities around the world. This is also a preparation step for comprehensive green transportation promotion products that Techcombank will coordinate with the Department of Transport to implement in the future.
