The initiative will help Credit Europe Bank Romania develop optimized and simplified services, in line with the banking market trends.
"We decided to support RoFin.Tech to help Romanian fintech companies accelerate the growth and development of new products and services through our knowledge and experience in the financial and banking field. We can provide the necessary resources of testing environments and technological support to member companies. We are looking for collaborations with the members and willing to participate on business and product development.” said Antar Turgay, Chief Cards Officer Credit Europe Bank Romania.
"Credit Europe Bank is one of the banks that, historically, have offered Romanian customers access to financial services based on technology through which they have increased financial inclusion in the market. The Card Avantaj platform is, in the collective consciousness, the first modern form of financing through shopping cards that Romanians have experienced. We are glad to see this bank joining as a support member of the community around RoFin.tech and we hope to announce soon some partnerships between our members and this banking partner", said Cosmin Cosma - Chairman of the Board of the Romanian Fintech Association, CEO & Co-Founder Finqware.
