- Make contactless payments - fast, easy and safely, with one motion, without entering a PIN code for purchases in the amount of up to BGN 50 in merchant outlets in Bulgaria with the contactless payments symbol
- Pay for goods and services at POS terminals in merchant outlets in Bulgaria and abroad
- Collect and pay using points for purchases at merchant outlets in the PLUS Programme

With the additional Debit Mastercard Kids the following transactions cannot be performed:

How does contactless payment work?
You can use your card contactlessly, if there is the characteristic symbol on the terminal, following these steps:
- See the amount on the POS terminal display.
- Tap your card to the symbol on the POS terminal.
- The terminal makes sound and light signals and the transaction is complete.
In case of contactless payments abroad, the value of the payment below which the entry of a PIN code is not required is different and is defined by the Bank servicing the terminal and the international card organizations (ICO).
For example, the average limit for payment without entering a PIN code in Europe is EUR 25.
Card activation
The process of card activation is now much faster and easier. After you receive your bank card you can activate it by changing your initial PIN code at an ATM of UniCredit Bulbank AD or at any other ATMs with the Borica AD* logo.
* The card activation and the change of PIN code is possible only at ATMs in Bulgaria!
