DemirBank is the first bank in Kyrgyzstan, which since 2002 has its own Processing Center located in Kyrgyzstan. This allows our customers, VISA and Mastercard cardholders, to receive services promptly within the terminal network, regardless of the geopolitical situation!

We would like to remind that currently DemirBank cards work as usual in Kyrgyzstan and abroad, with the exception of the Russian Federation!

Own processing center allows to:

• Provide the highest quality and prompt services to customers, process transactions online
• Carry out independent monitoring and control of fraudulent card transactions
• Develop a network of ATMs and POS-terminals without the help of third parties
• Quickly fulfill customer orders for the production and maintenance of cards
• Exclude access to confidential information about customers, accounts, transactions by third parties

Banks can play a crucial role in advocating CO₂-conscious lifestyles among consumers. CO₂ emissions are derived from consumption, which is enabled by spending money, and money is handled by banks. Because the drastic impacts of climate change are already being seen, banks need to take responsibility and act to fight it.

Studies have estimated that 70% of CO₂ emissions are driven by consumer behavior. Banks and financial institutions can be key enablers in fighting climate change because they see and process all our transactions. This provides them with a wealth of information about consumption patterns and preferences.

If banks can calculate customers’ carbon emissions based on transaction data, they can show them their individual carbon footprints. However, it is not enough to tell consumers how their lifestyle choices affect climate change; they must also advise them on how they can reduce their emissions, incorporating sustainability into personal finance management.
