Doha, 13 August 2009 – Qatar National Bank (QNB) announced the first winner of its weekly draw for QR15,000 in its new usage campaign for its Qatar Airways Co-branded MasterCard credit card.
The campaign awards twice the normal Qmiles to all customers using QNB and QNB Al Islami Qatar Airways Co-branded MasterCard Credit Cards in point-of-sale (POS) transactions worth QR500 or above. For every two such transactions, customers are enrolled in an automatic weekly draw to win QR15,000.
The winner of the first such draw was Mr. Alejandro Tuli, a customer of QNB's Hamad Hospital Branch. On being awarded the prize, Mr Tuli said he is always excited to participate in such prize promotions: "The fact that I can multiply my Qmiles as well as win cash prizes at the same time is definitely the greatest feature of this campaign."
The promotion which concludes on 19 September 2009 was launched by QNB to coincide with the Month of Ramadan and give its customers greater value for their money, especially during the Holy Month and the onset of Eid-Al-Fitr, when families are often looking to optimize value on all expenses. It is also a peak period for families and children preparing to return to school after the summer holidays.
QNB Co-branded MasterCard credit cards provide customers with the best and fastest way to accumulate Qmiles, which are the reward points of Qatar Airways’ loyalty program and can be redeemed for air tickets and flight upgrades.
