China Bank ATMs reload beep cards
China Banking Corporation has been tapped by AF Payments, Inc. to be the first bank to offer the beep™ card reloading service via its automated teller machines (ATM).
China Bank and AF Payments, operator of the beep™ tap-and-go payment system, recently signed a partnership agreement adding China Bank as the first bank in the convenient and secure card reloading network of beep™.
This service is initially offered in 100 select China Bank and China Bank Savings ATMs strategically located near LRT & MRT stations and P2P bus terminals.
ATMs with beep loading capability are marked with a beep™ sticker and has a beep™ card reader housed inside it.
China Bank cardholders can reload from a minimum of 1100 up to 110,000, in multiples of 1100. The load amount is debited from their China Bank account and instantly stored in their beep™ cards.
Each reload, regardless of amount, carries a minimal fee of 110, which is waived on the 5th transaction within the same month.
"Partnering with beep™ is special for us. We have always been conscious of harnessing available technology, particularly in the self-service space, to better serve our clients,” said China Bank Vice President for Alternative Channels Carol Chua.
She added that, “c-creating with like-minded technology partners to deliver efficient and reliable value-added service such as this, not only differentiates us in the market; it is consistent with our value of being the right partner for our customers.” (JAL)
