The “U-Advance Credit Card,” is a
payment card that allows workers who operate a salary account with UBA get a
credit advance ahead of pay-day. With UBA’s U-Advance card, the pressure of
waiting to be paid so that emergency expenses can be taken care of is removed.
It is an ideal card for civil servants especially in these periods when many
state governments are struggling to regularly pay salaries of civil servants.
