Rabitabank has taken another significant step in expanding its international payments system by enabling the acceptance of UnionPay cards across its POS acquiring network in partnership with UnionPay International. As a result, UnionPay cardholders can now make secure, fast, and convenient payments for goods and services at merchants connected to Rabitabank's extensive POS terminal network throughout Azerbaijan.

This partnership represents an important contribution to the development of Azerbaijan's international payment infrastructure while enhancing the payment experience for millions of international visitors traveling to the country. At the same time, merchants using Rabitabank's POS acquiring services can now accept payments from one of the world's largest card networks without requiring any additional technical integration, further expanding their access to international customers.

Rabitabank continues to implement its strategy of advancing modern payment technologies and strengthening partnerships with leading international payment providers. The collaboration with UnionPay marks another milestone in the Bank's commitment to delivering innovative payment solutions, enhancing customer experience, and supporting the integration of local businesses into the global payments ecosystem.

Established in 2012, UnionPay International is focused on the growth and support of UnionPay's global business. Today, UnionPay cards are accepted in 183 countries and regions worldwide, and provides cross-border payment services to the world's largest cardholder base. In response to the growing regional demand for UnionPay services, Rabitabank intends to further expand its cooperation with UnionPay in the future.
