Cash redemption model uses AED 0.75 per Plus Point. Electronics-specific earning cannot be isolated in the generic shopping category; approved credit-limit and merchant classifications apply. International spending here assumes eligible general retail outside restricted markets; FX charges and lifestyle perks are excluded. Use the detailed rewards calculator for market splits and verified FX deductions. No borrowing costs are included. Negative values remain visible.

Exclusions and important product notes

Other charges to check in the official tariff

Supplementary card, cash advance and late-payment fees are not consistently verified across this catalogue. They are not assumed to be zero and are excluded from rewards-only estimates. Check the linked bank schedule and key facts statement before borrowing.

How this card compares

These alternatives share its published salary bracket and broad reward type. Values use the same AED 10,000 monthly benchmark, rather than paid placement. Bank-specific approval and exclusions still apply.
