As the city prepares for World Azerbaijanis Solidarity Day and
New Year celebrations, Birbank, the country’s first digital bank,
is making holiday commutes easier and more affordable. To ensure
everyone can move freely and enjoy the season, the country’s
leading digital bank has launched a holiday campaign offering a 50%
discount on Baku Metro fares for all Birbank Visa cardholders.
Running from December 16, 2025, through January 4, 2026, this
initiative allows residents and visitors to navigate the city for
just 30 coin per ride, down from the standard 60 coin. To unlock
the discount, passengers simply need to use Apple Pay or Google Pay
linked to their Birbank Visa cards (debit or installment) at metro
stations. The seamless tap-to-pay experience ensures that users can
move through the city quickly and securely during the busy holiday
period.
Each customer can enjoy this benefit up to 10 times across all
their cards combined during the campaign period. By facilitating
easier travel and encouraging contactless payments, Birbank invites
everyone to save on their journey and make every moment of the
festive season count.
Birbank, the trademark of Kapital Bank and a provider of the
latest digital innovations and banking products, serves its
customers through a mobile application with more than 3 million
active users, as well as the largest branch network in Azerbaijan,
consisting of 115 branches and 50 service offices. Until 2025, the
bank operated under the name Kapital Bank, the country’s first bank
and it’s a part of PASHA Holding. Kapital Bank continues its
activities as a financial institution. For more information about
the bank’s products and services, you can visit birbank.az call the 196 Information
