A treat for music lovers – three banks offer limited payment cards with images referring to summer music festivals. Although some festivals have already taken place, you can still order cards for your musical collection. Alior Bank also plans to change images.
In the season of summer music festivals, three large banks operating in Poland – mBank, ING Bank Śląski and Santander Bank Polska – decided to introduce to their offer payment cards with graphic motives referring to musical events.
MBank rock cards
mBank continues activities related to the support of musical events and summer festivals. In 2025, the bank was present, among others at such events as the Pol'and'Rock Festival, Łódź Summer Festival or Off Festival. As part of his presence, he has prepared special payment card templates that customers can order online. Card designs graphically refer to the atmosphere of a given festival, containing characteristic colors, symbols and graphics system associated with specific events.
The cards are issued as standard debit cards and do not affect your account financial parameters. Their release takes place on general principles – without additional fees for people listing the card after its validity. People who want to order the card earlier can do this by incurring a standard fee for duplicate.
ING Bank Śląski and brothers Kacperczyk
In August 2025, ING Bank Śląski introduced a limited series of debit cards related to the concert tour of the band Bracia Kacperczyk. The artists were involved in the creation of graphic projects available as part of the “My ING card” service. Users can choose from three designs that directly refer to the motifs present on the stage, promotional materials and musical work of the band.
Cards are available to both current and new customers. The card issuing is free for people up to 26 years old. Customers above this age can order a card for a one -time fee of PLN 15. The card retains all the functionalities of the standard debit card and can be used at home and abroad, as well as for online and proximity payments.
Festival theme and promotion in Santander for music subscribers
In the summer of 2025, Santander Bank Polska prepared a debit card with a graphic motif referring to the Santander Sounds Festival. The pattern is available as part of the MasterCard tailored card offer and can be selected when submitting an application for a new card or current exchange. Edition of the card in a special graphic version does not affect its functionality or conditions of using the account.
In addition, the bank introduced a promotion for people who decide to obtain a card with a festival motif by the end of August 2025. As part of this offer, customers can obtain up to PLN 160 reimbursement of costs related to subscriptions of music services such as Spotify, Tidal and YouTube Music. The reimbursement is carried out in the form of partial reimbursement of costs for four consecutive months, provided that the specific criteria of the card activity are met.
New cards will also appear at Alior Bank
Regardless of the festival season, Alior Bank announced a plan to change the payment card visual. The new designs are to be introduced from January 2026 and will cover all newly issued cards – both debit and credit, for individual clients and companies. The exception are children's cards and products addressed to players that will keep a separate look.
The design of new cards assumes a simplified and more legible graphics system. As announced, the changes are aimed at increasing availability and readability for people with limited visual perception. Patterns will be used on both physical cards and in digital representations visible in the mobile application and online banking. Customers who already have cards will not have to exchange them – the new look will appear only with the next exchange or resumption after expiry.
