Bank of Valletta urges clients to use electronic payment options

Ahead of the coming long weekend, Bank of Valletta invites its clients to use electronic banking channels to effect their payments, whether they are shopping, dining with friends or family or going for a short break either in Gozo or overseas.

Speaking about the initiative, Ivo Camilleri, Executive Electronic Banking explained, “The spectrum of electronic payments offered by the Bank is becoming increasingly broader. Cards, both debit and credit, remain the most popular, although Internet and Mobile Banking are catching up. Market research shows that once a person starts using these payment methods, one truly appreciates the convenience and seamlessness that they translate into.”

Among the benefits linked to plastic money in particular, the card holder has a detailed breakdown of expenses in one’s statement, making it easier to track one’s expenses. BOV Mobile offers unprecedented convenience in this regard, allowing customers to easily view balances and transactions, and to securely transfer money across accounts from wherever they are.

“Furthermore, BOV premium credit card holders, are automatically eligible for BOV Loyalty Points with every one Euro spent. These are then redeemable against vouchers from among the bank’s Loyalty Rewards programme partners,” explained Mr Camilleri.

Should one require further information about the bank’s suite of electronic payments, one may contact BOV Customer Service Centre on 2131 2020 or visit the bank’s portal www.bov.com
