How to earn points?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Utilize your credit card every month. Your everyday spending will add up and become future savings after redeeming. But do not spend beyond your means for more rewards.<\/p>\n<p>Many Loyalty programs are running in which you can earn reward points on domestic spends and international spends and\u00c2\u00a0<strong>Guess what<\/strong>??\u00c2\u00a0 You get more points on international spends, many credit cards even allow you to earn a large sum of points in starting months of the cards.<\/p>\n<p>You can earn points by booking flights, making online payments for your hotels , shopping fuel,utility, dining and by other activities. Earning points value vary from card to card some provide\u00c2\u00a02\u00c2\u00a0points for AED 1 spend ,some\u00c2\u00a01.75\u00c2\u00a0points and some provide\u00c2\u00a01.25\u00c2\u00a0points and there are many such figures .So ,go for the card\u00c2\u00a0 which provide you more points on AED 1 spend .<\/p>\n<p>Some credit cards even don\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t give any minimum cap for earning these reward points, pay monthly bills by credit cards and use credit cards for big purchases.<\/p>\n<p><strong>2. Where to spend these earned reward points?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Many loyalty programs are running for spending these points at various locations.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Travel benefits:<\/strong> You can redeem these points on airlines for booking tickets , booking hotels and on the cab services such as careem.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Lifestyle benefits:<\/strong> You can redeem these points on online shopping malls,\u00c2\u00a0 movie tickets , dining &amp; restaurants<\/p>\n<p><strong>Recharges and bills:<\/strong> You can redeem these points for daily use purposes such as utility, fuel, supermarket and other retail spends.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Third party website<\/strong> : These points can be used on third party website also such as Amazon, noon and other popular websites.<\/p>\n<p>Golf is famous sport in UAE,\u00c2\u00a0 you get many discounts on that as well.<\/p>\n<p><strong>3. Validity<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>As there is validity for each and every product so even these points have some validity period.<\/p>\n<p>The most important thing in rewards credit card is to remember redeeming than earning, either you can use it or lose it.<\/p>\n<p>Knowing the expiry date and rules for your rewards use can save you from missing opportunities.<\/p>\n<p>Points you earn with a regular rewards credit card largely don\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t expire.

Minimum value require to redeem points<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Normally you would need a minimum number of rewards points before you can redeem it<\/p>\n<p>Some card issuers provide minimum cap for the spend and cap may vary product to product, while there are some\u00c2\u00a0 card issuers which do not require any minimum cap for availing benefits.<\/p>\n<p><strong>5. Annual fee charged on Card<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Annual fee is charged by the issuer of the credit card\u00c2\u00a0 for the services which is provided by them. It is charged on an annual (yearly) basis on the card and even it varies from credit card to credit card .<\/p>\n<p>You can use reward points to pay this fee. So, make sure that you are earning enough points to offset annual fee.<\/p>\n<p>But everyone knows that no one want to spend\u00c2\u00a0 their hard earned money so don&#8217;t worry for the same even there are some credits card that fulfill your this wish too, they don&#8217;t charge any annual fee.<\/p>\n<p><strong><span style=\"color: #ff00ff;\"><a style=\"color: #ff00ff;\" href=\"https:\/\/www.compare4benefit.com\/blog\/credit-cards-no-annual-fees\/\">Looking for no annual fee credit cards in UAE?<\/a><\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>It cares for you as your loved one care for you&amp; gives you sweet gestures in form of points when you spend on it.<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A\u00c2\u00a0rewards credit card\u00c2\u00a0lets you earn points, rebates, miles or other rewards on your spending.
