UrBC, Yekaterinburg, September 19, 2018. The Ural Bank for Reconstruction & Development’s business customers can now top up their company account balance using Alfa-Bank’s ATMs for the same price they pay at UBRD, the bank’s press service reports.

The two banks’ recent agreement means putting money into the company account is now even easier for the business owners, since as many as 3,000 new ATMs are now at their disposal. To use this option, a universal card with both cash-in and corporate account spending functions needs to be issued. Alfa-Bank charges UBRD customers exactly the same fee they pay to use UBRD ATMs.

‘This agreement with Alfa-Bank is particularly handy for those of UBRD customers who run their businesses in the areas where we don’t have ATMs at every corner. We are now literally getting closer to our customers in many towns all over Russia. Alfa-Bank and UBRD had a similar partnership with options for private customers earlier, and both banks received plenty of positive customer feedback on this decision. Now the benefits of our partnership are also extended to corporates,’ says UBRD Corporates Development Center’s Managing Director Elena Sorvina.
