VISA-SKB cardholders can now enjoy SKB-Bank’s new services, for instance, the bank’s first Yekaterinburg-based cash-in ATM that is located at 75 Kuibyshev St. (the bank’s HQ).


This new multi-tasking ATM combines the options of withdrawing cash from one’s account and topping it up with cash, paying one’s mobile phone and housing bills or for using satellite TV.


‘Besides, SKB-Bank’s new service gives you a chance to take care of your loved ones. If your family goes on vacation, make sure you give your spouse an additional bank card (it will only take little time to have this card issued), and you can be sure you can always supply your family with money using a cash-in ATM in no time at all. As soon as you top up an account, the money is instantaneously transferred onto the additional card account, so your nearest and dearest will be able to pay for their shopping or get some cash right away. This means that even if you are miles away from your family, you can still support them,’ says SKB-Bank’s Deputy Chairman Oleg Demin.


This is SKB-Bank’s only cash-in ATM at the moment, but the bank is hoping to raise their number very soon. As a matter of fact, the bank owns over 250 ATMs in nine Russian regions at the moment; in addition, SKB-Bank is Sverdlovsk Region’s No.1 in terms of bank card issuance: more than 450,000 cards have been offered to the bank’s customers by the end of March 2008.
