Manama, Bahrain: ila Bank, powered by Bank ABC, announces a Credit Card Cashback campaign for customers of ila Blue and Switch Credit Cards. The cashback of 3% will be received on all international and online foreign currency transactions made while using these credit cards from ila.

In addition, ila Credit Card customers will be receiving higher than usual rewards on their credit card spends during this campaign, which will run up to 31 May, 2025. Current and new customers of ila’s Blue and Switch credit cards who have set their credit card rewards as “Cashback” are eligible to get the 3% cashback on their purchases made in international currencies. Domestic transactions will continue receiving 1% cashback, while government transactions will receive 0.5% cashback, and educational transactions will receive 0.2% cashback.

Those credit cardholders who have opted to be rewarded in Airmiles or ila Tokens can also benefit from this campaign. Every BHD 1 spent in foreign currency transactions is equal to three Airmiles or three ila Tokens earned. Every BHD 1 spent on domestic transactions translates to one Airmile or 1 ila Token. Government transactions get one Air mile or one ila Token for every BHD 2 spent. Educational transactions will receive one Air mile or one ila Token for every BHD 5 spent.

Commenting on ila’s Credit Card Cashback campaign, Abdulla Abuidrees, Head of Marketing & Acquisitions at ila Bank, said, “We are pleased to offer our Credit Card customers enhanced rewards on their foreign currency spends through this tailored Credit Card Cashback Campaign. Like everything we do at ila, this campaign has been designed keeping our valued customers first and foremost in mind. Besides offering innovative digital banking services, ila Bank is intent on providing its customers unmatched privileges and benefits that enhance their lifestyles and propel them towards achieving their financial aspirations.”

While transactions made locally on fuel, charity and cash withdrawal are not eligible for any cashback, those made internationally will attract cashback as per the campaign’s cashback blueprint.

The rewards accrued during the Credit Card Cashback campaign will be credited monthly, as per the usual rewards programme process.
