Bus/Financial - Retail / Loyalty card
Bulgarian term or phrase: BILLA Card Акция
This term appears on the brochure for the card. It’s followed by a list that promises low prices, states the number of items discounted, and shows a sample discount label.

I wonder, is “Action” the appropriate translation for “Акция”?

English translation:BILLA Card (Discount) Campaign
Explanation:
"Action" is definitely not suitable. (Discount) Campaign is simply my suggestion (discount is optional). I am sure there are many other possibilities.

Explanation:
That's UK talk though, you probably know better what the US talk would be like...

"Action" is a no-no.
