DOHA: Qatar Islamic Bank (QIB) is providing its customers an opportunity to win back money they spend on purchases outside Qatar in a special promotion in association with Visa.
The “International Summer Spends” campaign offers 105 customers the chance to win back up to QR5,000 spent on purchases abroad using their Visa cards between July 21 and September 20, 2014.
All of QIB’s Visa cardholders who use their QIB-Visa credit/debit cards for purchases outside Qatar during the above period are eligible for the prize draw.
The 105 lucky winners will include 70 Visa Debit card and Visa Credit card holders and 35 Qatar Airways co-branded card holders who will win the money as well as the Qmiles they earn on their purchases.
Supplementary cards will also be eligible and will be included along with the primary cardholder. Only customers with cards active at the time of the draw will be eligible for the prize. The draw will be held in October 2014.
D Anand, General Manager of QIB’s Personal Banking Group, commented: “It’s during the travel season when customers tend to spend more, booking their airline tickets, hotels, car rentals, as well as shopping and buying gifts. To encourage our customers to use their cards against cash and ensure optimal safety while spending, we are rewarding them by paying back what they spend. Further, we have increased the number of winners for this year to over 100, as we endeavour to make their vacation and shopping experience memorable”.
“QIB, in association with Visa, is providing customers exclusive discounts and offers at many outlets like hotels, restaurants and car rentals. As the leading Islamic bank in Qatar and the region, we strive to offer customers clear and compelling reasons to choose QIB as their main bank”, he added.
Rahul Joshi, Country Manager for Qatar at Visa Inc, said: “Visa is delighted to partner with QIB to launch an exciting summer travel promotional campaign that will give cardholders an opportunity to win back their spending on international purchases.
“We believe in rewarding loyalty and more than 100 lucky cardholders will have the opportunity to benefit from this promotion every time they use their Visa-QIB credit or debit card, while enjoying the safety and security that all Visa products offer.”
