Frequently Asked Questions

Is the annual fee worth it?

The AED 1,575 annual fee can be worth it if you spend heavily on travel. The AED 2,000 welcome voucher for Expedia hotel stays offsets the first-year fee, and 10% cashback on travel quickly adds up for frequent travellers who meet the AED 5,000 monthly minimum.

What is the minimum spend to earn cashback?

You must spend at least AED 5,000 per month to activate cashback rates. If you spend below this threshold in any month, you earn no cashback that month.

Can I use this card abroad?

Yes, the card works internationally and earns 10% cashback on travel purchases. However, foreign exchange transactions incur a 1.15% markup on top of the Visa exchange rate.

How does the welcome bonus work?

Spend AED 15,000 within 60 days of card approval to receive an AED 2,000 voucher redeemable at www.expedia.ae/adcb for hotel stays worldwide. The stay must be completed within 6 months from voucher issuance.

What perks are included with this card?

The card includes airport lounge access, airport transfer service, buy-one-get-one cinema tickets, and complimentary golf rounds. These perks add value for frequent travellers beyond the cashback rates.
