Sudipta Roy, head – unsecured assets at ICICI Bank added, “We are delighted to be the first Indian bank to partner with Emirates Skywards to co-create the ‘Emirates Skywards ICICI Bank Credit Card’ and offer world-class propositions to our affluent customers. Typically, credit cards offer similar benefits across all categories and do not cater to a specific customer type or need. The proposed range of cards will be part of the select ones, which enable customers to earn in the form of the coveted Skywards Miles across all relevant spends.”

Emirates Skywards has over 28 million members. The programme offers four tiers of membership: Blue, Silver, Gold and Platinum.

Emirates Skywards has previously announced a special “Mile-A-Minute” offer in which members can register to earn up to 5,000 Miles during a stopover or holiday in Dubai. The offer is applicable on all Emirates flight tickets purchased between August 1, 2021 and March 31, 2022, for travel between October 1, 2021 and March 31, 2022. The airline said that members can earn 1 Skywards Mile for every 1 minute spent in Dubai between October 2021 and March 2022. The offer is available to existing and new Emirates Skywards members as well who sign up for the programme before March 31, 2022.
