Bahrain headquartered The National Bank of Bahrain (NBB), and America based global technology company Mastercard have announced a strategic seven-year partnership to elevate their existing offerings and provide NBB’s customers a differentiated, digital-first experience with value-added benefits. The partnership signing took place during Mastercard’s MENA Executive Council’s inaugural event that was held in Paris, France.

The collaboration and consultancy will result in the addition of a full suite of new premium products, with a focus on digital-first issuance to help NBB deliver a digitally native experience to their customers. Through this partnership, NBB will enhance its extensive and diverse portfolio with the launch of credit, debit, and prepaid cards, including the integration of Mastercard’s digital solutions into NBB’s state-of-the-art loyalty platform, ‘Points’, in addition to other digital solutions by both parties.

Furthermore, the partnership includes a credit offering and the launch of the bank’s highest tier of cards, targeted at ultra-high-net-worth individuals (UHNWI), offering priceless lifestyle and travel benefits and experiences. It will be the first issuance in the market for Mastercard’s World Elite Exclusive portfolio.
