30 Daily Cash Prizes to 30 Winners

Doha Bank and VISA announced the completion of their latest promotion awarding 30 cash prizes to 30 lucky winners who used their Doha Bank Visa debit cards outside Qatar in foreign currency transactions at points of sale and at ATMs between December 2012 and January 2013.

Every QR 100 transaction earned customers one chance in the draw, with Doha Bank’s Al Riyada Visa Platinum card holders earning two opportunities to win a prize for every QR 100 withdrawn from an international ATM or spent overseas at any point of sale. Al Riyada is Doha Bank’s exclusive priority banking service.

Mr. Suresh Bajpai, Head of Retail Banking at Doha Bank said: “This partnership between Doha Bank and Visa to award daily prizes is an added-value campaign initiated to reward customers for their transactions abroad. We hope the cash prize (equivalent to winning back their daily spend) will help support the winner’s future overseas travel plans this summer, as well as reinforce their trust in Doha Bank’s commitment to providing tangible added value to the relationship with each customer.”

Mr. Bajpai continued saying: “Doha Bank is the number 1 issuer of Visa cards in Qatar. Visa Electron debit cards are accepted at over 1.8 million ATMs and even more retail points of sale in over 200 countries around the world, making it an ideal partnership for the Bank and we are confident that together we will be able to offer our customers more such offers and promotions in the future. Doha Bank congratulates each of the 30 winners on this occasion.”

Isaac Thomas, Visa Country Manager, Qatar, said: “We have always believed that offering the best products to our customers is the ideal way to ensure customer satisfaction. Our initiative with Doha Bank for Visa debit cards was a step in this direction and we congratulate all the winners. We are delighted to partner with an industry leader such as Doha Bank to further extend the convenience and security of electronic payments.”

Each winner received their daily spend back, up to a maximum of QR 2,500 which was credited directly into their accounts on completion of the draw which was held in February 2013 at Doha Bank’s headquarters in Doha.
