HSBC Extends Air Miles Middle East Partnership
Global loyalty management leader, Aimia, today announced an extension to its agreement with anchor partner HSBC for its participation in the Air Miles programme in the Middle East.
The extension to the partnership, which has run for over a decade, means members will continue to collect Air Miles twice every time they use their HSBC credit card alongside their Air Miles Middle East card at partner outlets and will now also benefit from HSBC increasing its investment in the Air Miles programme.This will provide HSBC’s customers with an improved value proposition for the Air Miles they currently hold and all new miles issued, including better rewards.
Mark Mortimer-Davies, Air Miles Middle East CEO, says: “We are delighted our joint venture partner, HSBC, has extended the agreement for its participation in the Air Miles programme. HSBC’s ongoing commitment and increased investment in the programme and its customers reflects the strength of Air Miles as the leading coalition programme in the region.”
Marcus Cleverton, HSBC Head of Cards for the MENA region, adds: “One of HSBC’s key priorities is to offer our customers the best value from a loyalty programme. For our Premier customers, who lead a global lifestyle, a world-class travel rewards programme is an integral value-add. By extending our agreement with the Air Miles programme, HSBC will continue to benefit from a strong market differentiator, with our increased investment ensuring our Air Miles proposition is made more rewarding for our customers.”
Dubai-based Air Miles member, Kimberley Leonard, who has collected Air Miles for over five years and is also an HSBC cardholder says: “This is great news for customers. I’m sure all members will be pleased to hear the agreement may lead to even better rewards in the future.”
Air Miles Middle East operates throughout the UAE, Qatar and Bahrain and its 1.2 million active members can collect Air Miles at over 120 market-leading companies, including HSBC, Spinneys, Lamcy Plaza and Damas.
