January 22, 2025Wing Bank’s Groundbreaking Mastercard One Card Recognized with Prestigious Awards for Innovation, Leadership, and Performance
Wing Bank has been awarded three distinguished accolades by Mastercard in recognition of its exceptional performance and groundbreaking contributions to the financial sector in 2024. The honors were presented during the Mastercard Year-End Appreciation Dinner in Phnom Penh this past weekend, solidifying Wing Bank’s position as a trailblazer in Cambodia’s banking industry.
The bank received the following prestigious awards: Leadership in Debit Volume 2024, Leadership in Cross-Border Volume 2024, and Innovation Breakthrough 2024.
Mastercard’s Innovation Breakthrough 2024 award was conferred upon Wing Bank for the launch of its Mastercard One Card—Cambodia’s first two-in-one payment card that seamlessly combines the benefits of both a debit and credit card. This pioneering product empowers customers with unparalleled flexibility and functionality, further elevating Wing Bank’s commitment to innovation and financial inclusion.
The Wing Bank Mastercard One Card leverages Mastercard’s cutting-edge global technology to enhance the security, convenience, and accessibility of digital payments. Featuring a sleek, numberless design, the card offers enhanced protection by shielding sensitive account information, significantly reducing the risk of fraud and identity theft.
The card’s success has also translated into remarkable business growth for Wing Bank, with a 22% increase in customer usage-derived value compared to the previous year.
This marks the second consecutive year that Wing Bank has earned recognition from Mastercard for its excellence in the card market. In addition to the three new awards, Wing Bank’s roster also includes the First Launch in the Market award, Leadership in Debit Volume, and Innovation Breakthrough, further solidifying its reputation as a market leader.
“We are deeply honored by these prestigious awards from Mastercard, a global leader in payment technology,” said Vattanak Phakdey Chhun, Deputy CEO of Wing Bank. “These accolades not only reflect our dedication to innovation but also underscore our ongoing efforts to provide best-in-class financial services to our customers. We remain committed to pushing the boundaries of what is possible in Cambodia’s evolving financial landscape.”
“We would like to express our sincere gratitude to our customers for their continued trust in Wing Bank and for choosing the Mastercard One Card as their preferred payment solution,” he added.
Wing Bank’s ongoing commitment to meeting the financial needs of its customers is exemplified through its history of innovative card offerings. In 2018, Wing Bank introduced the Virtual Online Mastercard, followed by the launch of the Wing Bank Debit Mastercard in 2022—the first numberless, biodegradable, and antibacterial metal card in Cambodia. These initiatives reflect Wing Bank’s unwavering focus on both technological innovation and environmental sustainability.
