The holders of the Ural Bank for Reconstruction and Development’s Visa Gold card can now win an unforgettable trip to Tokyo if they take part in the bank’s Taste of New Life special offer. All one has to do is use one’s Visa card to pay for at least 1,000 RUR worth of shopping between May 1, 2009 and July 31, 2009. Twenty special prizes (35,000 RUR in one’s bank card account) are provided, and the main prize is a holiday for two in Tokyo. Each bank card transaction improves one’s chances, the bank’s press officer reports.

The prize drawing has been scheduled for August 20, 2009.
