Measuring CO₂ per transaction – Visa O₂ partners with you to build a green lifestyle
09/05/2025
Sacombank gifts thousands of green Visa O₂ cards to customers.
Beyond its cutting-edge technology, the Visa O₂ card offers a range of attractive promotions, some of the most competitive interest rates on the market, and programs that encourage green consumption. It empowers customers to manage their personal finances while contributing to environmental protection.
Technology powers CO₂ measurement for every purchase
You may not realize it, but every item you purchase - whether it's food, household goods, fashion, or electronics - generates a certain amount of CO₂ emissions, which impact the environment and contribute to climate change. Increasingly, Vietnamese consumers are becoming aware of this issue and are adopting green consumption habits and sustainable living to reduce their daily carbon footprint.
In this context, the Visa O₂ card enables cardholders to measure the greenhouse gas (CO₂) emissions associated with each purchase, acting as a pioneering tool for promoting a greener and more sustainable lifestyle.
CO₂ emissions data is provided through periodic transaction statements from Sacombank. This information not only helps cardholders understand the carbon footprint of their spending but also serves as a basis for adjusting purchasing behavior - encouraging eco-friendly choices and green spending, ultimately contributing to ecosystem preservation.
“With the Visa O₂ credit card, we’re not just offering a superior financial solution - we’re partnering with customers on the journey toward a sustainable future. By quantifying CO₂ emissions from everyday purchases, customers can proactively adjust their consumption behavior, collectively reducing environmental impact. This is part of Sacombank’s commitment to promoting green finance and sustainable development in Vietnam,” a Sacombank representative shared.
Choose green with the Visa O₂ credit card
Customers can choose between a physical Visa O₂ card made from recycled ocean plastic or a digital-only card to help reduce plastic consumption.
When opting for the non-physical card, customers enjoy a lifetime annual fee waiver and can begin using the card immediately after registration. Simply activate the card on the Sacombank Pay app, add it to Apple Pay, Google Pay, Samsung Pay, or Garmin Pay, and enjoy fast, convenient, and secure payments.
Add the green Visa O₂ card to Apple Pay for smooth, convenient payments.
Notably, for each new Visa O₂ credit card issued, Sacombank contributes VND 50,000 to the Healthy Living Fund - an initiative by Sacombank in collaboration with the Vietnam Youth Federation and the Vietnam Student Association. This fund supports community activities that promote green and sustainable lifestyles, especially among young people.
A Green card with 5X benefits for modern consumers
More than just a convenient payment tool with advanced carbon measurement technology, the Visa O₂ card elevates the green lifestyle experience through exclusive benefits: Customers who activate a Visa O₂ card and spend VND 2 million or more within the first 30 days will receive up to VND 600,000 cashback.
Additionally, receive 10% cashback (up to VND 300,000 per billing cycle) for green spending at: Xanh SM – electric mobility services, Vinamilk – Vietnam’s leading dairy brand, Decathlon – sustainable sportswear brand.
A standout feature of the Visa O₂ card is its 0.8% monthly interest rate - one of the lowest in the credit card market - exclusively for students. This empowers young users to manage urgent financial needs while maintaining healthy cash flow for important goals.
Furthermore, easily convert purchases over VND 5 million into 0% interest installment plans for 3 or 6 months directly on Sacombank Pay. Cardholders can also receive up to VND 1 million in fee refunds for installment conversions.
Use the Visa O₂ card for green spending and embrace a sustainable lifestyle.
Cardholders can also access 24/7 online loans via Sacombank Pay, with interest rates starting from 12% per year and flexible terms ranging from 2 to 60 months - giving you greater control over personal finances.
