A new credit card for Croatia.
Croatian Post and Croatian Postal Bank (HPB) have decided to introduce their first joint product – Pošta & HPB Kartica. It is a contactless MasterCard credit card which provides maximum flexibility in payment, so that users in each accounting period have a choice between paying for their costs in full or in instalments. Payment in instalments is possible for transactions at retail outlets in the country and abroad and for internet purchases, according to the model of repayment that customers choose when applying for the card – three, six or twelve instalments. Also, for the purchases of up to 100 kuna the card enables contactless payment as well, reports Poslovni.hr on November 24, 2015.
“Pošta & HPB Kartica marks the beginning of an even more intensive cooperation on joint projects between Croatian Postal Bank and Croatian Post. Our first joint product is a combination of financial services offered by the Bank and advantages offered by the Post Office, which gives customers a more complete and better service”, Marijana Špalj, deputy director of retail operations at HPB, said.
Josip Ninković, head of the Department for Development and Management of Financial Services of Croatian Post, stressed that this joint project has been created on the basis of user needs. “We are pleased that this cooperation can enable new benefits for our users. It is well-known that in post offices across Croatia we provide a number of services, and this card allows everyone to have discounts of up to 10 percent while using HPekspres service, buying books, toys, as well as special benefits when contracting Evotv television service”, said Ninković.
Pošta & HPB Kartica can be contracted in all post offices of Croatian Post and in branches of the Croatian Postal Bank. During the initial promotional period, users do not pay registration fee and are entitled to reduced fees for instalment payments.
