Monday 3 June 2024 10:13 CET | News

In a collaboration with Andorran bank MoraBanc, UnionPay International (UPI) has facilitated the acceptance of UnionPay Cards at all MoraBanc-affiliated merchants in Andorra.

 

Andorra, renowned for its skiing and scenic beauty, attracts millions of tourists annually, drawn to destinations like Grandvalira, a prominent European ski resort. This development allows international tourists from Spain, France, and beyond, as well as local residents, to utilize UnionPay cards for cashless transactions across the country.

The initiative is anticipated to increase customer foot traffic and bolster Andorra's appeal as a tourist destination. UnionPay's widespread acceptance offers visitors the convenience of using their preferred payment method while engaging in activities such as skiing, shopping, or dining.

Representatives of UnionPay expressed optimism about the partnership's potential to attract more visitors to Andorra and streamline payment experiences with UnionPay cards. MoraBanc representatives emphasized the agreement's alignment with the bank's commitment to providing clients with value-added products and services, citing its positive impact on Andorra's commercial and tourism sectors.

UnionPay International's expansion into Andorra underscores its dedication to enhancing global tourism and simplifying payment processes for travellers worldwide.
