“Worba for Travel” Converts Expenses into Global Rewards
Wara Bank has launched the “Wara Travel Program,” a new initiative designed specifically to enable customers to transform their daily spending into travel opportunities and global rewards. Through an integrated system, customers can earn travel points with every purchase made using eligible Visa credit cards and redeem them for distinctive travel benefits and experiences.
The launch of the program aligns with the bank’s strategy to provide innovative banking solutions that elevate the customer experience and offer benefits tailored to evolving lifestyles, particularly targeting travelers and exploration enthusiasts. The program offers real, redeemable rewards through a wide network of travel and hotel partners worldwide.
Regarding the program, Muneer Isa Burhama, Director of Product Development and Customer Segments, stated: “The Wara Travel Program provides a flexible earning mechanism that varies by card type. Holders of Visa Prepaid and Visa Platinum credit cards earn one travel point for every dinar spent on local purchases, and three travel points for international transactions. Visa Signature cardholders earn three travel points on local transactions and six on international ones. Visa Infinite cardholders can earn up to eight travel points on international transactions. Meanwhile, holders of Visa Infinite Privilege cards receive the highest number of travel points, earning up to 10 points for every Kuwaiti dinar spent on international transactions, and three points on local transactions.”
Burhama added: “Customers whose monthly spending exceeds 5,000 dinars receive an additional travel point for every dinar spent, whether on local or international transactions. This enhances the value of rewards for high-spending customers, with a monthly cap of 100,000 travel points depending on the banking segment.”
The “Wara Travel Program” awards welcome points to customers upon activating eligible cards, enhancing the value of joining the program from day one. The welcome points include:
The program is built on a network of strategic partnerships with leading regional and global airlines and hotel companies, giving customers greater flexibility in utilizing their points and converting them into rewards that suit their diverse needs and preferences.
These partnerships provide customers with a wide range of options to use their points for booking flights, hotel stays, and other travel-related benefits.
The program aims to enhance the customer experience in the travel and rewards sector and encourage the daily use of credit cards by delivering tangible added value to everyday spending. It also supports the bank’s strategy of targeting financially stable customer segments and providing a comprehensive digital experience through the Wara app.
