Why is it convenient to pay with a card?

  1. On paying with the card in the shop you will receive both the receipt and a copy of the transaction receipt. These receipts are the best way of how to easily follow up on the spend and incomes allowing to control your personal or family budget
  2. Accurate information on daily purchases will allow to plan better the purchases, which will enable you to save money. The receipts will free you from the feeling that you do not know where the money has gone to and what is that have you actually bought
  3. The card gives you the feeling of security, as you do not have to keep an eye on your purse worrying that you may either lose it or someone may steal it. The card takes small room and you can keep it there where the pickpockets will not find it. Even if you happen to lose the card you can inform the bank and/or subsidiary First Data International in Latvia and block the card immediately reducing your own risk.
  4. Paying by card avoids any kind of misunderstanding or tricky situations in the shops. Many of us have been in a situation that the shops either would not have small change or that we have not been given back the right amount of money. With the card you will never end up in such situations.
  5. The card allows to always carry all your money on you which makes you feel secure and confident in nearly every situation when you are not sure of the total spend. You are protected against not having enough money for your purchases.
