ANB becomes largest Visa signature credit card issuer in Saudi Arabia

Arab National Bank (ANB) has been honored by Visa for becoming the largest issuer of Visa signature credit cards in the Kingdom, according to the Visa Inc., a global leader in electronic payments.
This achievement of ANB comes as a result of the unwavering efforts of its marketing and sales team, besides the exclusive promotions, special discounts at selected merchants and value-added benefits to customers, including ANB Rewards Program which offers cardholders a chance to win points and redeem these for rewards whenever they use their credit cards to pay for purchases inside and outside the Kingdom.

Based on Visa’s research and direct accountholder feedback, we are confident that this exotic card will provide affluent accountholders exactly what they need.”
He added: “Visa is a trusted partner for banks looking to grow their electronic payment portfolio and is committed to developing innovative, tailored products and provides issuers with the platforms to build hundreds of credit products, with a combination of rewards, benefits and features tailored to the affluent consumer’s needs and preferences.”
ANB's Head of Consumer Banking Asad Alsada said: “Arab National Bank is proud to partner with Visa to launch the premium Visa signature credit card, which received an overwhelming response from our customers. We hope our long and fruitful cooperation will become even stronger, and this recognition to reinforce ANB’s credit cards, which are diverse, suit large customer base and offer constantly great features and privileges.”
