First Gulf Bank’s Makkah Credit Card Presents the Opportunity of a Lifetime
(6 July 2008)

 

First Gulf Bank’s Makkah Credit Card, the Middle East’s first stand alone unsecured Islamic credit card, presents the opportunity of a lifetime – a trip for two to Makkah in the last 10 days of Ramadan.

“For many of our customers, going to Makkah is a lifelong dream,” says Javed Afzal Head of Retail Islamic Business, FGB. “This product offers every customer a chance to go to Makkah through its unique rewards programme, and now two winners can have an unforgettable experience during the last 10 days of Ramadan, while staying in an apartment overlooking the Kaaba.”

This opportunity is open to customers who apply for a Makkah Credit Card from now until August 20th. Two lucky winners will get the chance to go on an Omrah trip for two in the last 10 days of Ramadan, with all expenses paid for, including accommodation at the Zam Zam Towers with spectacular view of the Kaaba.

“You can measure customer satisfaction and stakeholder value in a number of ways, and we recognize that today’s customer needs even more than world-class products and services,” Mr. Afzal added. “Not only do we strive to develop products that positively impact our customers’ daily lives, we also strive to provide opportunities that will benefit our customers long-term. We are offering life-changing experiences to the people of the UAE.”

Providing customers with a viable alternative to traditional interest laden products, the Makkah Credit Card offers convenient Shariah-compliant payment methods, and rewards cardholders with the opportunity to earn ’Steps’ to travel to the Holy City of Makkah. For every AED 1.00 spent on the card, customers earn one step.

Additionally, in the Islamic spirit of community, the card provides protection against sudden tragedy. The ’Takaful Income Plan’ compensates the cardholder in unforeseen eventualities, such as accidental loss of life or permanent total disability as a result of an accident. Cardholders receive the protection at no extra charge and are automatically enrolled when they apply for the card.

“The Makkah Credit Card was, and continues to be, a unique product,” concluded Mr. Afzal. “It has been an overwhelming success ever since its launch in April 2007 - the market response exceeded expectations in line with the exponential global demand for Shariah-compliant products. We will continue to offer our customers world-class products that allow them to keep pace with modern life, without compromising their beliefs.”
