When acquiring the ArCa Classic "UNIBANK- RESO" co-branding card, the insurees of RESO insurance company will be able to make use of 5% discount for all the insurance services of the company, except the motor third party liability insurance (MTPL).
The co-branding cards with credit lines to be issued by Unibank will have a special design and will be served free of charge throughout a year. The loans provided by the co-branding cards can be spent on any needs. ArCa Classic "UNIBANK - RESO" can be provided to the individuals having CASCO or MTPL insurance policies from RESO company. The credit limits are as follows: 370,000 AMD in case of a CASCO agreement for the cars made in 2005-2011; 100,000 AMD in case of an MTPL agreement for the cars made in Russia in 2005-2008; 200,000 AMD in case of an MTPL agreement for the cars made in Russia in 2008-2011 or for the cars made in any other country 2005-2011.
