Qatar Islamic Bank (QIB) has introduced a new VISA Signature credit card dedicated to its ladies customers. The launch of the QIB ladies credit card comes after the Bank introduced its ladies banking proposition designed to cater to the financial needs of ladies in appreciation for their role in the Qatari society.
The new QIB ladies credit card will provide QIB customers with the convenience of managing their cash flow by providing an option to pay as low as 5 percent per month on their card outstanding balance. QIB ladies credit cardholders will enjoy exclusive privileges like QIB reward points based on their spends that can be redeemed on purchasing flights from Qatar Airways, one world airlines or at the Qatar duty free shops. Ladies cardholders will also benefit from higher credit limits, up to two times their monthly salary.
Designed with ladies customers in mind, the new credit card offers a host of elite benefits, including Global Concierge services, complimentary access to over 500 airport lounge with the LoungeKey service, exclusive discounts and offers at over 100 merchants/retailers in Qatar and across the globe, full multi-trip Travel Insurance.
As is the case with all QIB cards, ladies will benefit from the one-time password security feature that the Bank has added when using the card for online purchases to protect customers’ credit card and personal information. Furthermore, the recently introduced Visa Checkout Service enables them to make online purchases in a simple, fast and safe manner. All QIB Ladies customers will be able to own this card free of charge for the first year.
D Anand, General Manager of QIB’s Personal Banking Group said: “Today’s ladies are influencing the decisions when it comes to making purchases for themselves and their families. Ladies want a card that caters to both their personal needs and those of their loved ones. Our QIB ladies credit card is specially designed to offer them just that.”
He added: “Our research indicates that there is ample space in the minds and wallets of ladies in Qatar for a card that’s just for them. They want choice and they expect great value in everything they choose. They want a card that offers them more than just shopping and dining privileges.”
“This is a product that not only rewards women, but also celebrates their achievements and we are confident that ladies will identify with it,” added, Anand.
Other benefits include discounts and promotions at various premium brands in Qatar such as, 51 East, Channel, Al Jaber Jewelry and Watches, AlFardan Jewelry, VLCC, Movenpick Hotel, Westin Hotel Grand Wyndham Regency, Souq Waqif Boutique Hotels, The Ritz Carlton and other outlets providing a wide range of products and services.
