Banca Transilvania's meal card can be enrolled in the BT Pay application

The BT table card, the digital version of the printed meal vouchers, can be enrolled in the BT Pay wallet application. It can be used, depending on accessing the application through Android or iOS, to pay by phone for food purchases and consumption at the restaurant in the bank's network of partners, respectively to check the amounts on the card and the transactions made with it.

The launch of this option, for the first time in Romania, is another step taken by Banca Transilvania in the digital direction, this time for the clients in large numbers who receive the salary at BT.

The BT Pay application can be downloaded for free from the Google Play Store or App Store, on android and iOS smartphones and involves adding BT cards in digital format, such as the meal card.
