As part of the agreement, Belinvestbanks acquiring network of 500 ATMs and 7,300 merchants will begin accepting JCB Card for cash withdrawals and payments in the country.
The launch is perceived as a crucial step for the issuance projects in Russia where JCB Cards and co-badged Mir-JCB Cards have been issued since 2015, Belarus being one of the main routes for business people and tourists from Russia.
