NBAD MasterCard holders to win Mercedes-Benz S300

The National Bank of Abu Dhabi (NBAD), the Number One Bank in the UAE, has awarded a top of the line luxury car to the first winner of the ongoing NBAD MasterCard Credit and Debit Card International Spend Campaign.

Ms. Helen Al Amily won a Mercedes-Benz S300 2011 for simply using her NBAD MasterCard card during her trips abroad.

The campaign, which enters NBAD MasterCard cardholders into the draw to win a Mercedes-Benz every time they use their card during international trips, continues through September. NBAD will select the next winner in October.

“NBAD cards offer a host of privileges and on top of that we often run campaigns with exception prizes. This newest campaign is an example of that,” said Navneet Dave, the Head of NBAD Cards. “Using NBAD cards on international trips offers cardholders the benefits of favourable exchange rate, frees them from carrying large amount of cash and search for venues to convert currency. It also allows them to keep a record of their expenses. Moreover, cardholders receive NBAD Stars points as well as benefit from a number of other promotions.”

NBAD cards are market leaders in benefits they deliver to cardholders. All NBAD Credit cardholders, for instance, automatically earn NBAD Stars on all purchases made on their NBAD Credit Cards. In addition, NBAD Cardholders can earn bonus NBAD Stars at selected Partners that range from air lines, travel agents, hotels, restaurants, retailers and more. The NBAD Stars programme is built on the basis of a coalition model so it allows consumers to accumulate Stars not only from NBAD but from its NBAD Stars participating partners as well.

“MasterCard is delighted to collaborate with the National Bank of Abu Dhabi to give cardholders additional benefits when shopping with their MasterCard cards,” said Eyad Al-Kourdi, country manager and vice president, UAE, MasterCard Worldwide. “Through this collaboration, we are able to provide consumers with even more convenient payment solutions and privileges, ensuring that travelers can enjoy the security and comfort that they have come to expect from MasterCard. We are pleased to continue to offer MasterCard cardholders various value-added privileges that will further enhance their travel experiences.”

NBAD will hold the drawer for the next winner in early October.

“I look forward to naming the next winner of our luxury car promotion,” Mr. Dave said.
