Lately, Bank of China received the title of the “Most Popular Credit Card Issuer among Chinese Travelers for Overseas Consumption” in the selection of “Travelers’ Choice – the Favorite Brands” sponsored by daodao.com.
Relying on its 10,000 domestic outlets and over 600 overseas institutions in 40 countries and regions worldwide, BOC has consistently committed itself to providing professional international services to customers. In recent years, China has become the nation with the largest number of outbound tourists. To better serve the clients going abroad, BOC has adopted a slew of measures in terms of credit card products, functions, overseas charging preferences and consumption preferences.
During 2010, the Great Wall Globe-in-One Credit Cards issued by BOC realized the RMB repayment function for global transactions, which could be credited directly in RMB. For Great Wall Globe-in-One Infinite Cards, Platinum Cards, Air China Platinum Cards, and All-Currency Platinum Cards targeting mid- and high-end clients, cardholders can enjoy exclusive services such as double bonus points for overseas transactions, exemption from currency exchange fee for cross-border transactions, and cash refund for overseas card swiping.
On the back of the strengths of its foreign exchange business, the Great Wall International Credit Cards issued by BOC provide overseas students a variety of chip card options for different currencies including USD, EUR, GBP, and AUD.
By leveraging its geographic advantage based on long-time operations in Hong Kong and Macau, BOC has launched the Great Wall International Credit Cards for Hong Kong, Macau and Taiwan Tours, the holders of which can enjoy 5% cash refund for consumption at specified merchants in Hong Kong, Macau and Taiwan, and zero-interest & zero-handling fee payment by installment for card swiping at such merchants.
BOC will soon stage the “enjoying your worldwide tour with one card” cross-border consumption and cash refund campaign for overseas shopping again, among other activities. Cardholders will be able to enjoy the 5% cash refund preference at a number of online and offline merchants regardless of country and time.
