To commemorate the first anniversary of his canonization and the 162nd anniversary of his birth, Bancamiga presented the special edition Bancamiga Debit Card with a design honoring Saint José Gregorio Hernández.

In addition to the image of the so-called “Doctor of the Poor” on the front, the card features a semi-circular indentation on the edge so that visually impaired people can identify and orient it by touch (Mastercard Global Touch Card system).

For added security, the customer’s personal and sensitive data is now located on the back of the card, reducing the risk of cloning or visual theft of information.

With international acceptance in more than 120 countries, the Bancamiga Mastercard Debit Card allows users to make payments at points of sale both inside and outside of Venezuela, withdraw cash from international ATMs, shop online quickly and securely, subscribe to streaming services such as Disney+, Netflix, and Spotify, and access promotions at partner merchants in the country.

It also features NFC (Contactless) technology and is tokenized in Bancamiga Suite, making it possible to pay simply by tapping the card or mobile phone against the point-of-sale terminal, according to a statement from the bank.

Bancamiga celebrates its devotion

With this financial instrument, Bancamiga celebrates its devotion to a figure born on October 26, 1864, in Isnotú (Trujillo). During the homily at his canonization on October 19 in St. Peter’s Square, alongside six other new saints, including Mother Carmen Rendiles, Pope Leo XIV described him as “a benefactor of humanity with a heart ablaze with devotion.”

To support the La Candelaria parish, 50 % of the proceeds from the card issuance fee will be donated entirely to its reconstruction efforts, reaffirming Bancamiga’s commitment to preserving heritage and the community.

Customers can pick up the card at any of the institution’s 51 branches nationwide. This card joins the one Bancamiga launched during the Divina Pastora procession on January 14, reinforcing its commitment to the country’s values ​​and traditions.
