The event marks an important step in the cooperation between Petrolimex and HDBank in accordance with the Government’s cashless payment policy, particularly the Prime Minister’s Decision No 1813/QĐ-TTg dated October 28, 2021, approving the Scheme on the development of non-cash payment in Vietnam during the 2021-2025 period.

The two sides jointly launched the HDBank - Petrolimex 4-in-1 super card, in response to the State Bank of Vietnam’s “Non-cash Day”.

On the occasion, the Vietnam National Petroleum Group (Petrolimex) and Sovico Group signed an agreement for comprehensive cooperation. With this strategic agreement, the two Groups which are holding leading positions in numerous key areas will utilise and uphold strengths of each other, mutually contributing to the national socio-economic development and the sustainability of both sides.

Management Board member and General Director of Petrolimex Dao Hai Nam said: “Petrolimex always takes the lead in trading high-quality petroleum products and in applying new technologies in business and corporate governance. Since 2021, Petrolimex has worked with HDBank to successfully implement the non-cash payment project, offering highly-automated and user-friendly utilities for customers nationwide. This is in line with the Government’s digital transformation and cashless payment policy.

I’m convinced that with a solid foundation and strong determination, the effective cooperation with HDBank and other partners in the field of non-cash payment will contribute to the growth of non-cash payment transactions through Petrolimex’s retail network to 40 – 50 per cent in the coming time.”

General Director of HDBank Pham Quoc Thanh said: “In line with the State and Government’s policies and under the thorough direction of the State Bank of Vietnam, we and our strategic partners have worked towards a comprehensive digitisation goal and invested in digital applications, promoting a spirit of innovation, creativity, and taking the lead. With experience and results earned from the implementation of digital transformation and digitisation solutions, accompanying the Government, ministries and departments and localities, we and Petrolimex have successfully accelerated the cashless payment and national digital transformation efforts. The HDBank - Petrolimex 4-in-1 super card is a milestone in the cooperation with Petrolimex. The super card is not only a novel and user-friendly payment device but also a tool enabling the two sides to better customer care.”
