These cards allow the Citi cardholders to make contactless payments at all Shell stations and other retailers equipped with contactless technology.
The Shell MasterCard contactless credit card was issued in cooperation with MasterCard.
Citibank Czech Republic head of consumer lending George Denisenko said the PayPass technology allows customers to pay for small purchases more quickly and conveniently than with cash.
"The technology has been used successfully in a number of countries. It has been on the rise in most European countries over the last several years and will be available for clients within the Czech Republic this fall," added Denisenko.
Citi said the first successful contactless transactions were made in Zilina in Slovakia and in Jelenia Gora and Wodzislaw Slaski in Poland, where the contactless technology is commonly used.
Citibank clients, as holders of the first contactless credit cards issued in the Czech Republic, are first to benefit from the contactless technology when making their payments.
