The end of the year and Lunar New Year are typically when remittances to Vietnam surge, as overseas Vietnamese send money home to support their families or invest in domestic production and business.
Both senders and recipients can utilize the Visa Direct service to transfer money from abroad directly to a Sacombank Visa payment card, offering a fast and secure way to receive funds, along with additional benefits from Sacombank.
Specifically, when customers receive money from abroad on their Sacombank Visa payment card of VND 500,000 or more per month, they will receive a gift of VND 200,000. Over the five months of the program, eligible customers can receive this gift up to five times, totaling VND 1,000,000.
To receive money, the recipient only needs to provide their name and 16-digit Sacombank Visa payment card number. The sender can then transfer the money online via the app or at the branch of global partner providers such as Remitly, Western Union, ABA’ Bank, MoneyGram, CIBC, Simplii, Bank SinoPac, Remit Malaysia, Maybank, Nium, Public Bank, Sathapana Bank, Paysend, TransferGo, Al Ansari Exchange, Al Muzaini, Qatar Islamic Bank, and SABB, among others.
As soon as the sender completes the necessary procedures, the recipient’s Sacombank Visa card will be credited with the amount at a competitive exchange rate. The recipient does not need to go to a bank to collect cash and can freely transfer, withdraw, or use the money from their Sacombank Visa card as usual.
