HUNGARY: Penny Market offers cash withdrawals on card payments | Progresiv

Retailer Penny Market is offering free cash withdrawals up to 20,000 forints (65 euros) for customers who pay for their purchases using bank cards, Hungarian online daily mno.hu reported.

Those customers who purchase goods in a Penny Market store for more than 3,000 forints (10 euros) and pay with their bank cards, are eligible to withdraw up to 20,000 forints (65 euros) in cash from their cards for no additional fee, the daily reported.

Penny Market reportedly said that the service is available at each of their stores, adding that they are able to circumvent the withdrawal fee as it is registered in the system as a purchase and not a withdrawal. Such withdrawals can exceed the limit of 150,000 forints (480 euros) that can be withdrawn from ATMs monthly, for no additional fee, Penny Market added. (www.bbj.hu)
