Public Bank Vietnam, Nam A Bank, and VietBank applied the minimum fee of VND2,000 per transaction. Vietcombank, Agribank, and BIDV applied the fee level of VND5,000 per transaction while Vietinbank charged VND7,000 per transaction.
The representative of NAPAS said that in March this year, the total volume of small-value interbank money transfers through the service increased by 32 percent compared to that in February. This shows that people have shifted from cash to non-cash payment channels to limit the impacts of the Covid-19 pandemic.
