Doha: International Islamic (QIIB) announced Mohammed Al Qutami — one of its credit card customers— as the winner of the Visa Travel Happy Campaign. The award of $5,000 was presented by Omar Al Meer, International Islamic branch Manager, Grand Hamad Street, at the bank’s headquarters in Doha.
The Visa Travel Happy Campaign was designed to encourage travellers to use their Visa cards to experience the ease, convenience and security of Visa’s services worldwide. Visa cardholders were automatically entered into a draw after using their Visa card while travelling. Cardholders also won prizes through Visa’s social media competition by sharing their holiday photos or posting travel tips on social networks using Visa hash tags.
Omar Al- Meer commented:
“We congratulate the winner of the Visa Travel Happy Campaign. As a customer-centric bank, our customer’s satisfaction is prominent to our business and we therefore continue to offer services and products of high value in the retail, internet, and corporate banking sector to efficiently meet their needs. In addition, our partnerships with companies such as Visa ensure we are on the right path to developing the business and local economy in Qatar.”
Mohammed Al Qutami showed his gratitude to International Islamic, saying that as a loyal customer, he is satisfied with the level of services offered by the bank. The winner also expressed his appreciation for the Visa Travel Happy Campaign, explaining how using his Visa card during his travels provides simple ways to pay, easy access to cash, and additional security.
Isaac Thomas, Visa Inc. General Manager in Qatar, Oman, Kuwait, and Bahrain, said: “Visa’s Global Travel Intentions Study 2013 revealed that the average spend per trip is expected to jump by almost 30 percent for future trips. Therefore, Visa is working closely with our partners in the banking, financial and retail industry to deliver the most convenient, safe and easy to use electronic payment services. Our partnering banks’ customers can now take part in campaigns, such as the recent Visa Travel Happy Campaign, by simply using their cards for value added features and benefits.”The Peninsula
