Members of Etihad Airways’ loyalty programme will be to earn and spend their ‘guest miles’ on purchases made with their Visa cards at three malls within Aldar Properties’ retail portfolio.
A new partnership agreement signed with Aldar Properties will allow Etihad Guest members use and earn their miles at Yas Mall, World Trade Center Abu Dhabi (WTC) and Al Jimi Mall, which collectively totals over 650 retailers.
Members will earn one Etihad Guest Mile for every AED3 spent on purchases with their Visa cards over AED50, or can choose to spend their miles for transactions over AED50.
In a first for the Etihad Guest programme, members can now earn ‘Tier Miles’ on purchases, allowing them to elevate tier status.
To earn and spend miles, shoppers have to connect their Visa card to their Etihad Guest mobile app. The Etihad Guest app is fitted with the new ‘Miles on the Go’ function allowing members to earn or spend miles when they swipe their linked Visa card in any of the three Aldar Malls.
Shoppers will automatically earn miles if the transaction is over AED50, and if the member has sufficient miles in their account, the member will be prompted via a push notification, with an offer to redeem miles for their purchase.
