About the card
"Twins" is an Alfa-Bank card for employees
The unique two-sided Alfa-Bank Twins card has no equivalents in Russia. It can be used as both a debit and a credit card. The plastic works with all terminals and ATMs, allowing the owner to withdraw funds at any time and receive a host of other privileges. The card features magnetic stripes, chips, and security codes that are different for each of the two sides.
In our article, we will focus more on the debit part.
