In the words of Winnie Wong, MasterCard’s country manager for Vietnam, Laos, and Cambodia, SHB Finance’s mission to bring innovative and easy consumer finance services to each and every Vietnamese is aligned with MasterCard’s development vision in the Vietnamese market.

Following its mission, SHB Finance is making non-stop efforts to enhance customer services and experience to cater to the growing young and technology-savvy customers.

Along with this MasterCard project, SHB Finance is proceeding with other digital customer acquisition projects, customised loan offers to specific customer groups, online loan applications on e-wallets, and payment gateways. When E-signature is in place, it will offer significant time savings for customers by reducing paperwork.

Following its mission, SHB Finance is making non-stop efforts to enhance customer services and experience to cater to the growing young and technology-savvy customers.
