International payment company Mastercard recognized DemirBank as the most active issuing bank in Kyrgyzstan for 2024.
According to L. Sevki Sarilar, General Manager of DemirBank, for many years the Bank has maintained the status of a leader in issuing Mastercard cards in Kyrgyzstan. This award once again confirms the high status and successful activity of DemirBank both in Kyrgyzstan and in the international market.
“For more than 14 years Mastercard and DemirBank have been actively building partnership relations, introducing new projects, thus making financial services even more accessible and convenient for Kyrgyz citizens. We are honored to be recognized by our international partner as the best issuing bank in Kyrgyzstan. For our part, we will continue to strengthen cooperation and introduce innovative financial services,” emphasized Sevki Sarilar.
In 2024, DemirBank and Mastercard implemented a number of large-scale projects of importance for Kyrgyz citizens. For example, on the eve of the New Year, the Bank acted as an official partner in organizing the entertainment fair “Northern Lights” on the Ala-Too Square near the main Christmas tree of the country. One thousand Bishkek citizens and guests of the capital were able to visit the New Year fair and get unforgettable emotions, feeling the atmosphere of the holiday. An open ice rink, master classes, food court, fairy-tale decorations, Santa Claus’ houses and many other things were available for visitors of the fair. A special offer at the fair was available for Mastercard cardholders – discounts and favorable offers.
Another large-scale project that was successfully implemented was the Black Friday campaign. During the month Kyrgyz citizens could make profitable purchases in installments at 0% with Mastercard credit cards from DemirBank. The offer was valid during December in the network of more than 500 partners of the Bank, including large stores of clothes, household appliances, furniture, etc.
DemirBank is one of the first commercial banks in Kyrgyzstan to become a Principal Member of the MasterCard international payment system. Back in 2011, the Bank became a member of the international system, actively developing the financial sector in the country. In the future, the Bank will continue to develop partnerships and implement interesting projects for the convenience of its customers.
