| 1 annual fee for an Enter Bonus Visa or Mastercard debit card | €1.00 |

| Benefit Advanced monthly fee | – €3.00 |
| Monthly savings | €5.66 |
The amount you save depends on the free benefits and the number of transactions you carry out each month. The €5.66 example was calculated based on all the free transactions offered by the package as well as the monthly fees for cards and cheque books.
On the 1st day of each month, the number of available free transactions is automatically renewed. You can use them any time between the 1st and last calendar day of each month.
You can link any personal account to the package, whether you are the sole account holder or there are other account holders:
Activate the package for a specific account. You cannot carry out the package transactions through a different account. However, you can activate a separate package for each of your accounts.
The number of transactions included in the package is fixed and does not increase according to the number of account holders. However, all account holders may use the transactions included in the package.
You pay no annual fee for the Bonus Visa or Bonus Mastercard credit card, if you hold the package for 12 consecutive months. You just need to have activated the package.
The no annual fee benefit applies to a card you already hold or a new card you may get.
If you deactivate the package before the 12 months are up or you unlink your card, you pay the fee that applies at the time according to the Alpha Bank price list.
When you get a new card, you already pay no annual fee for the 1st year, so the no annual fee from Benefit Advanced applies as of the 2nd year. If you already hold a card that has no annual fee, you don’t need to link it to the package.
