Card Briefs: Europay Opens Two ATMs in Belarus

Europay International announced the opening of its first automated teller machines in Belarus.

In the capital of Minsk, two machines, beside Belvnesheconombank, are open to all Eurocard and MasterCard-Cirrus cardholders.

Europay said ATM availability is following the same trend in payment system modernization that included Belvnesheconombank's introduction of Eurocard-MasterCard cards in June.

"We expect to see a rapid evolution in Belarus, with expansion in both the issuing and acquiring sides of the (card) business," said Carine Janssens, Europay's business development manager for Eastern Europe.
