The Vietnam Bank for Agriculture and Rural Development (Agribank) officially launched the Agribank Napas – Mastercard co-branded card, a groundbreaking financial solution designed to combine convenience, safety, and sustainability. Carrying the message “one card, seamless transactions, toward a green future,” this new product highlights Agribank’s pioneering role in the journey of digital transformation while affirming its long-term commitment to sustainable development.

The introduction of the Napas – Mastercard co-branded card marks a significant milestone for Agribank as it continues to diversify and modernize its product portfolio to meet the evolving needs of customers. By integrating the domestic payment network Napas with Mastercard’s global network, the card enables customers to access a wide range of financial services both in Vietnam and abroad. Domestically, cardholders can make payments at more than 700,000 acceptance points and withdraw cash at over 20,000 ATMs across the country. Internationally, the card is recognized at over 130 million merchants and 1 million ATMs within the Mastercard ecosystem, offering seamless access to goods and services worldwide.

Beyond its wide acceptance, the Agribank Napas – Mastercard card provides exceptional convenience by consolidating multiple functions into a single card. Customers no longer need to carry separate cards for domestic payments, international transactions, or online shopping. Whether purchasing at retail stores, booking travel services, or shopping online, one card is sufficient to ensure a smooth and efficient experience. The card also supports contactless payments, meeting the growing demand for fast, touch-free, and hygienic payment solutions in the digital era.

Security is a top priority, and the card incorporates advanced EMV chip technology to protect against counterfeiting and data theft. Online transactions are safeguarded through one-time password (OTP) authentication, giving customers peace of mind when conducting e-commerce activities or making cross-border payments. By combining convenience with robust security features, the Agribank Napas – Mastercard co-branded card reflects Agribank’s determination to deliver innovative yet reliable financial solutions.

A distinctive feature of this product lies in its eco-friendly design. Unlike conventional cards made from virgin plastic, the Agribank Napas – Mastercard card is produced from recycled PVC, reducing the environmental footprint associated with card issuance. This initiative not only lessens plastic waste but also aligns with global efforts to promote green finance and sustainable consumption. Through this product, Agribank seeks to inspire customers to make more responsible choices in their daily lives, turning each transaction into a meaningful contribution to environmental protection.

The launch of this card also demonstrates Agribank’s strong collaboration with Napas and Mastercard, two leading organizations in the payment industry. By leveraging the technological expertise and global reach of its partners, Agribank continues to enhance customer experience while strengthening Vietnam’s financial infrastructure. This cooperation illustrates the bank’s vision of creating a modern and inclusive payment ecosystem that meets international standards while serving the diverse needs of the Vietnamese people.

Starting from September 8, 2025, the Agribank Napas – Mastercard co-branded card will be officially available across Agribank’s extensive nationwide network. Customers can apply directly at branches or contact the hotline 1900 558818 for detailed guidance and support. With its reputation, and customer-centric approach, Agribank is confident that this new product will be warmly welcomed by millions of existing and potential customers, further expanding its position as a leading retail bank in Vietnam.

With this launch, Agribank once again reaffirms its pioneering role in Vietnam’s banking sector, not only in driving digital transformation but also in promoting environmental sustainability. The Agribank Napas – Mastercard co-branded card embodies the harmony between technology, innovation, and social responsibility, offering customers a secure and modern payment solution while encouraging them to join hands in building a greener and more sustainable future.
