Card for social payments

A social card is a regular bank card used for receiving social payments from the government.

At Raiffeisen Bank, you can open an account for social payments online without visiting a branch!

How to open a social account at Raiffeisen?

To receive assistance or benefits, a separate card is not needed; any card can be a social card. You just need to have an open account at a bank and provide its details to the social protection authorities. The same applies to applying for pension cards. At Raiffeisen Bank, this process can be completed entirely online via the MyRaif app. Step-by-step instructions:

Step 1

It can be downloaded from the App Store or Google Play.

Step 2

Complete identification and choose any debit card that suits you. All of them are suitable for receiving social payments.

Step 3

Provide the card details.

Provide the card details to the social security authorities. Now all payments will be deposited into your social account at the bank automatically and without delays.

If you are already a Raiffeisen Bank client, creating a card for social payments is even easier. Simply access the app, retrieve your account details, and provide them to the social security authorities.

What is a social card in simple terms?

A social card is not a separate type of card but a way to use a standard account to receive government assistance. You choose the card that is convenient for you and then provide its details. The difference lies in the source of funds. This card allows you to receive money directly into your account quickly, safely, and without queues.

Who is eligible to open a social account?

Anyone receiving state support can open an account for social payments: pensions, subsidies, childbirth benefits, child payments, social assistance for internally displaced persons, low-income, or large families. If you haven't opened an account yet, just a few minutes in MyRaif, and you're ready to receive payments. The main advantage of this solution is that you'll have an online card that's always at hand.
