Reward and NatWest partner on new Travel Reward Credit Card
By Gloria Methri
Reward, an expert in customer engagement and commerce media, has expanded its partnership with NatWest to power its new Travel Reward Credit Card. This follows a longstanding partnership between the two brands, with Reward powering NatWest’s MyRewards programme, helping deliver real value to Credit Card customers.
Leveraging Reward’s customer engagement platform, the new product enhances travel experiences through an extensive travel rewards programme. It allows Credit Card customers to seamlessly earn and redeem rewards on domestic and international travel spend.
The partnership will allow Travel Reward Credit Card holders access to a suite of personalised retailer offers through their MyRewards. Cardholders will benefit from 1% rewards on every travel-related spend and gain rewards on everyday transactions.
NatWest’s latest product comes as travel continues to flourish in the UK. Insights from Reward found that travel sales increased by 5% from the start of the year to date. The figure highlights the opportunity the latest product is providing in enhancing customers’ travel experiences, driving convenience, and expanding savings opportunities for every journey made.
Sam Sprekos, Managing Director UK at Reward, said, “For the past 12 years, we have worked closely with NatWest to drive value for customers, particularly during times when a little can mean a lot. Our focus is to make everyday spending more rewarding; launching the NatWest Travel Reward Credit Card aligns with our core mission to give back $2 billion in rewards to customers by 2025. We look forward to working closely with NatWest to elevate travel experiences, rewarding consumers on domestic and overseas travel spend.”
Martin Wise, Managing Director of Short-Term Borrowing at NatWest, added, “With the launch of our new Travel Reward Credit Card, we are helping our customers by rewarding them with one per cent back on all their travel spend.”
