Bank of Baku Allocates SMS Credits at 12 Million Manat
Within the SMS credit project launched in March this year, the Bank of Baku has allocated loans totaling about 12 million manats.
As reported by the bank, the main advantage of this service is that the client not going to the bank can apply for a loan from his mobile phone. The loan amount asked for is transferred to the customer's card Dostlar Klubu. The client will be able to cash the amount of credit transferred to the card via any ATM of the Bank of Baku.
To order a credit one should send to the number 8145 the following combination: the last 8 digits of the card Dostlar Klubu, a space, and the loan amount. Example: 03129876 kredit2000.
After sending a request it is evaluated and the amount of credit that the client can receive is determined automatically. SMS loan application can be done with a cell phone of a registered client of the bank.
Today SMS service credit holders can take advantage of the Diamond and Gold Cards of Dostlar Klubu, and soon the Silver cardholders will also have the opportunity. -15D -

Azerbaijan's financial standing continues to strengthen as the country's foreign currency reserves have surged to $71 billion as of January 1, 2025, according to the Ministry of Finance. This figure, which includes reserves held by the State Oil Fund of Azerbaijan (SOFAZ) and the Central Bank of Azerbaijan (CBA), far exceeds the nation's external debt, which stands at a fraction of its reserves, specifically nearly 14 times less.
