You can submit the request for issuing the card, i.e. the application form at any branch, but the card is approved by the parent branch (parent branch for clients who have a Student Lepeza Package or Package for the youth is the branch where they arranged the Lepeza Package/Package for the youth, and parent branch for users who do not have them is the branch where they opened their current account in EUR).

The prerequisite is opening of a current account in EUR in Zaba. 

Activation

A non-activated card is delivered to your address and can be used after its activation, as described in the accompanying letter.

  • in a branch of Zagrebačka banka.

Your card will be ready for use immediately after the activation.
