This year, Bank of Cyprus sent three lucky customers to the Formula 1 grandstands. Not in front of a screen, but right in the thick of the action—amid the atmosphere, the noise, the excitement, and the crowds. From the Red Bull Ring in Austria to Budapest and Barcelona, the Pronomia Project sent three lucky winners who describe their thrilling experiences, emphasizing just how different it is to experience Formula 1 up close.
Austrian Grand Prix: It will be unforgettable
Aigli Symeonidou was at the Red Bull Ring for the 2026 Austrian Grand Prix, and as she tells us, it was a special experience from start to finish. “We had a truly wonderful time, and it was an exceptional experience that we enjoyed from start to finish,” she emphasizes. She thanks the Bank of Cyprus for the prize she won through the Pronomia program and notes that: “It was truly a unique experience to witness Formula 1 up close and be part of such a special event.”
He sums it up with a phrase that says it all: “Ultimately, it’s really great to be at F1. The atmosphere, the energy, the crowd, and the entire Grand Prix setting were incredible—and definitely an experience we’ll never forget.”
Budapest: From the Screen to the Track
Konstantinos Xanthou describes his experience, confirming that it’s a thrilling experience to see up close something you usually watch on TV. “This trip was a unique opportunity to see a truly impressive sport up close,” he notes.
Barcelona: A Phone Call He Didn’t Expect
Stelios Christodoulou still remembers the surprise a Bank of Cyprus representative had in store for him with a single phone call: “Personally, it was a unique experience. It all started with the phone call I received from a Bank of Cyprus representative regarding the Pronomia program—it was a huge surprise, since it’s not something you’d expect.”
He chose the destination himself, and he hasn’t regretted it at all. “The choice of destination was mine, and I must admit I haven’t regretted it. Barcelona is a wonderful destination, and combined with the Formula 1 race I attended, it was a truly unique experience.” He concludes by thanking the Bank of Cyprus and the Pronomia program for the opportunity they gave him to have an amazing experience.
What Is the Pronomia Program?
Behind these three stories lies the Pronomia Program, the first customer-centric rewards program in Cyprus that focuses on the customer’s overall relationship and collaboration with the Bank. Customers who meet the eligibility requirements are placed in one of the program’s three tiers: Silver, Gold, or Diamond. As their relationship with the Bank grows, customers move up a tier and enjoy even more privileges and benefits.
Depending on the tier, the perks include, among other things, extra points in the Rewards Program through credit card use, lower interest rates and waived origination fees on new loans, discounts on new insurance products, as well as entry into sweepstakes and exclusive lifestyle experiences (such as a ticket to the Grand Prix).
Registration for Pronomia is free and can be easily completed through the BoC Mobile App or Internet Banking, provided you meet the eligibility requirements. Become a member, and the next unforgettable experience could be yours.
