Bank offers e-payment option for insurance

Vietcombank has launched a promotional campaign for customers paying insurance on its internet banking and ATM systems in the period from September 1 to November 29 with an aim to accelerate e-payment in this field.

Accordingly, five life insurance companies including Prudential Viet Nam, AIA Viet Nam, Dai-chi Viet Nam, ACE and South Korean Life Insurance have co-operated with the bank to implement the programme. Customers would have to sign up for an ATM card or register for internet banking and VCB-SMS banking at the bank to pay their insurance online.

The first 20 customers to pay their insurance fees every day would have VND50,000 added to their account. Vietcombank has partnered with the highest number of insurance partners in Viet Nam in the e-payment sector.
