In its Limited-Edition Visa FIFA-Themed Credit Card-i Campaign, Bank Islam Malaysia Berhad (Bank Islam) today announced the names of 192 winners. In addition to travel to Qatar to see two World Cup quarterfinal matches, the two grand prize winners will also get cash awards worth RM10,000 and additional prizes like hotel stays and return tickets.
The campaign, held from 15 June to 30 September 2022, is a collaboration between Bank Islam and Visa as the Official Payment Services Partner for FIFA World Cup Qatar 2022™. The winners were chosen amongst the new cardholders who applied and activated the limited-edition card or those who collected points by spending a minimum of RM200 on a single receipt using the card throughout the campaign period.
The prizegiving ceremony for the Bank Islam Visa FIFA-Themed 2022 Credit Card-i was attended by Mizan Masram, Bank Islam Group Chief Business Officer – Retail, in an event held at Menara Bank Islam today.
One of the campaign’s grand prize winners, Syakinah Mohamed, who hailed from Kelantan, said, “After my registration for the credit card, I was informed of the campaign and proceeded to spend using the card. However, I did not expect to win.”
Another grand prize winner, Dzulhizzam Dulaidi from Selangor, said, “I am excited to go to Qatar to witness the quarterfinals match live. Indeed, this is a once-in-a-lifetime experience I will never forget. Thank you, Bank Islam, for this opportunity.”
According to Mizan, “Bank Islam is very grateful for the encouraging response we received from the customers towards the Bank’s latest credit card offering. Throughout the three months campaign, we achieved the 10,000 new Limited-Edition Visa FIFA Themed cardholders’ target set. With its sleek design and the FIFA World Cup™ Trophy background, football enthusiasts can commemorate the prestigious sports event, which began last Sunday and further hype the excitement of the World Cup.”
“Bank Islam is proud to be a part of the global sporting event and able to offer a unique experience for our customers. Besides rewarding our loyal customers, the campaign
reflects our effort to nurture cashless transactions and a responsible banking culture,” he added.
