To welcome new small and medium-sized enterprise (SME) customers in 2026, VietinBank is rolling out a dual package of offers covering EKYC online account opening, deposits, and trade finance. New onboarding starts with a few steps, with no paper documents and no need to visit a branch. Business owners can open an online payment account (TKTT/eKYC) via computer or smartphone to be ready for transactions on VietinBank eFAST.
The service is designed to deliver a modern digital banking experience for corporate clients, enabling online TKTT account opening on smart devices anytime and anywhere. After successful account opening, customers receive VietinBank eFAST benefits, including an account number and a one-use digital signature, free transfers within and outside the system, payroll services, payments to the State Budget, and up to two OTP devices.
For the first time, VietinBank is launching an automatic promotional program for term deposit interest boosts on the VietinBank eFAST platform. The program is intended to encourage digital transactions and help optimize cash flow for new SME customers. Promotional rates are set competitively by term and deposit size, and are pre-integrated into the eFAST platform to support quick access and transaction.
In a volatile global market environment, financing costs, international transaction costs, and exchange rate risks remain key challenges for the business community, particularly SMEs. VietinBank has introduced the SME Global Boost program for enterprises using international payment services, trade finance, and foreign exchange at the bank.
Under the program, participating firms can receive up to:
For foreign exchange transactions, customers can benefit from exchange rate advantages of up to 120 basis points at counters and 200 basis points online.
VietinBank has been named the best SME bank in Vietnam for six consecutive years by The Asian Banker (2020–2026) and is also listed among the Top 10 SME banks in the Asia-Pacific region in 2023.
For advice on guarantee issuance, customers can contact VietinBank branches nationwide or use the Customer Support Hotline 1900 558 868, or email contact@vietinbank.vn.
