Sterling Bank launches Visa credit cards

The Sterling Bank of Asia (Sterling Bank) has collaborated with Visa International to offer the New ShopNPay Visa debit cards.

The ShopNPay Visa debit card is the first EMV chip Visa debit card to be issued in the Philippines. The EMV chip is an added feature to the ShopNPay card that provides better security against fraud. It is more difficult to duplicate thus better protecting the cardholders from theft.

The ShopNPay Visa Debit card is an all-in-one account that offers the flexibility of a day-to-day transaction account with the added convenience of access to the Visa worldwide network or to any BancNet payment facility. It aims to change the way of paying for bills and purchases — the cashless way.

It also comes in a prepaid option, which can be loaded and used to make purchases everywhere Visa and BancNet cards are accepted. The debit card has increasingly been gaining popularity because of the convenience and security it offers cardholders. The ShopNPay card may also be used to make online purchases.

The Sterling Bank of Asia branches are located in the following locations:  Ayala Avenue-Makati, Sen. Gil Puyat-Makati, Makati Avenue-Makati, Greenhills, Banawe, Masangkay-Binondo, San Fernando-Binondo, Ongpin, Grace Park-Caloocan, Valenzuela, Iloilo, Bacolod, Cebu-Fuente Osmeña, Cebu-Magallanes, Emerald Avenue-Ortigas, Davao-Monteverde and Quezon Avenue.
