There are four ranks in the program. Rank 1 members get 3% cashback on credit card payments and 2% on other cards, while Rank 4 members receive 0.50% cashback on credit cards.

How to boost your rank and earn more cashback?
This is where our expert's tips come in handy!
- Always use your Bank al Etihad cards
Our expert jokes, "Ever heard of anyone earning cashback on transactions they've paid for in cash?" We've got to admit, that rarely happens! When it comes to boosting your cashback rewards, a simple yet effective step is to pay with your Bank al Etihad cards. Whether it's in-store or online, every transaction adds to your cashback earnings. During Ramadan, we make a lot of purchases, from iftar and suhoor meals to sweets in between. Make sure to use your card for all your shopping to earn more cashback.
- Cover the bill during social outings
One of our expert's strategies for maximising cashback is to pay the bill during outings with friends or family. Whether it’s iftar with family, suhoor with friends, or any group activity, they cover the expenses and later collect owed payments by sending payment requests through the app. The earned cashback is then used as tips for the service staff. This approach not only helps save money but also ensures that the benefits of cashback extend to everyone around.
- Transfer money by Western Union
Here's what our expert had to say about this tip:
"I love the simplicity of the Bank al Etihad app. There's no longer a need to drive to a Western Union branch, saving me time and fuel costs. With the app's Western Union feature, I can transfer money worldwide to boost my rank."
