If you do not have a VISA/MasterCard, go to the bank to register, the registration procedure is quite simple. You only need to register one type of card (VISA and MasterCard are two types of international payment cards of two different organizations).
You can register for a VISA Debit (debit card) or VISA Prepaid (prepaid card) at ACB quite quickly because they have pre-made cards available here.
