Global Payment Services

BC Card is a leading company in the Korean card industry and is growing into a global payment company, aiming to become a global payment provider. In 2008, when it established a local subsidiary in China, it launched a partnership with China Union, a Chinese credit card company, and launched the "China Series Card."[1] Currently, BC Card is in charge of buying tickets (inbound) of foreign-issued Union Card in South Korea, so if you use a Union Card issued in China, the buyer will be stamped with BC Card on the receipt.
