UniCredit Bulbank offers a new, easier and cheaper way for small companies to organize their monthly payments – with Business Leader On-line package program.

Its main objective is to enable small companies to optimize their costs related to bank services and products. Against a fixed monthly fee under Business Leader Online program small companies will benefit from the considerably lower prices of the included products compared to their stand-alone prices.

The package program includes the most frequently used bank products:

• current account in BGN as a basic package account – without fees for opening, monthly maintenance and servicing, with free-of-charge statements via e-mail;

• current account in foreign currency – without fees for opening, monthly maintenance and servicing, with free-of-charge statements via e-mail;

• unlimited number of free-of-charge outgoing BGN inter-bank transactions per month (without transfers under RINGS) – via the Bulbank Online service for internet banking;

• unlimited number of free-of-charge BGN intra-banking transactions per month – performed via the internet banking;

• Bulbank online – without a monthly fee for servicing;

• Visa Business Electron debit card in BGN;

• Discounts in case of one-year advanced payment of the package program fee.

The total price for all these services according to the applicable bank tariff is BGN 36.80. For the sake of comparison, the monthly fee for Business Leader Online Light is BGN 12.95 whereby it gives up to 65% discount from the prices of the included bank products and services used separately.

“For several years now we have been offering a package solution for the business; we were among the first to launch such a product. Customers benefit differently from it – either through the free-of-charge transactions, or the cash operations or the credit interests. Now we want to optimize as much as possible company costs, even by reducing the time for “banking” – only from the office and as fast as possible”, said Ljubomir Punchev, MB member in charge of retail banking of UniCredit Bulbank said. The new program is intended for small companies seeking innovation everywhere or willing to have greatest control over company payments, he added.

According to information of UniCredit Bulbank, since the beginning of 2009 until end November the bank has financed small business (companies with turnover less than BGN 3 mio p.a.) with more than BGN 180 mio in new loans.
