KUALA LUMPUR: RHB Bank Bhd, Malaysia's fourth largest financial services group by assets, has today launched the limited edition Justice League Debit Cards in collaboration with Warner Bros Consumer Products, on behalf of DC Entertainment and Visa.
The launch coincides with the release of the much-awaited Justice League movie.
RHB Banking Group retail banking acting head Nazri Othman said as Malaysia moves closer towards becoming a cashless society, the group hopes that the unique designs will appeal to superhero fans.
With features such as contactless payment (Visa PayWave) and MyDebit, Malaysians will be able to enjoy the benefits of electronic payments including the ability to make purchases online and overseas,” he said.
Visa Malaysia country manager KB Ng said the company is seeing strong debit growth in Malaysia and cardholders are spending close to 20 per cent more than last year on their debit cards.
“We believe that Malaysians who are fans of superheroes will embrace the benefits and convenience of using these contactless enabled debit cards and switch from using cash.
“Visa is committed to working closely with our bank issuers and acquirers to promote the use of electronic payments and are aligned with Bank Negara Malaysia’s objective to increase debit penetration and move Malaysia towards becoming a cashless society,” he said.
The limited edition debit cards come with 0.5 per cent cash back on overseas retail spending.
To encourage the usage of these cards, users can stand a chance to win RM50 cashback from now to February 28, 2018.
The RHB Justice League Debit Cards are available for RHB Bank current or savings account holders.
RHB Bank will offer a RM3 rebate every month for the first 5,000 customers upon their first transaction from now to December 31, 2017.
For existing customers, they can switch to their desired card at any RHB Bank branch nationwide.
New customers who wish to obtain this limited edition card can either apply for a Smart Account via the RHB website or walk into any RHB branch nationwide to open RHB current or savings account.
