On March 10, Visa announced its official co-sponsorship of the inauguration ceremony for Ho Chi Minh City Metro Line 1 , marking a pivotal step towards modernising public transport and enhancing the daily commute for millions of residents.

Ho Chi Minh City Metro Line 1 passengers can now experience the convenience and speed of paying for tickets with Visa cards through, ticket counters and the HCMC Metro HURC app.

will soon announce the availability of Visa card acceptance at metro stations, further enhancing seamless, convenient, and secure payment experiences for commuters. The initiative eliminates the need for cash or physical tickets, streamlining the boarding process and reducing wait times.

"Visa is thrilled to celebrate the launch of Ho Chi Minh City Metro Line 1. We are proud to bring our global expertise in digital payments and sustainable transit to Vietnam, and are working diligently to enhance the commuting experience with additional convenient, secure, and environmentally friendly payment options. Visa is committed to supporting Ho Chi Minh City's journey towards a smarter, greener future," said Dung Dang, Visa country manager for Vietnam and Laos.

With rapid urban growth, efficient mass transit is essential to address road congestion.
