Apart from a range of competitive credit card benefits that include high credit limits, acceptance at millions of Mastercard Merchants worldwide and 24-hour customer assistance, the NBD-Dnata MasterCard Credit Card allows its holders to earn reward points every time they use their card anywhere in the world. These accumulated points can then be redeemed at selected Dnata outlets for any of their products or services, including tickets at more than 130 airlines, exotic holiday packages and various other services.
The new Credit Card's powerful reward programme will allow cardholders to earn up to 10 per cent of the amount spent on the card. The redemption plan is simplified in order to allow the customer to know the exact value of the reward points, thus differentiating the NBD-Dnata MasterCard Credit Card from other cards in the market.
