Earning Skywards Miles on your debit card

You earn Skywards Miles every time you make a retail purchase or payment using your Emirates NBD Skywards Visa Infinite Debit Card. The Miles earned are based on the average monthly balance in your savings account, and on the type of transaction.

Miles earning rate per USD spend:

Monthly account balance (AED) Miles earned
*Domestic spends International and Emirates spends
250,000 - 499,999 1 1.25
500,000 - 999,999 2 2.5
1,000,000 and above 4 5

If your average monthly balance falls below AED 250,000 in any given month, you won’t earn any Miles for transactions in that month.

*Note on domestic retail spends:

  • Grocery, supermarkets, insurance and car dealership spends earn Miles at 25% of the domestic earning rate
  • Petroleum, government services, utility payments, real estate, education and telecommunication spends payments earn 10% of the Miles

Miles earning cap

Your monthly account balance determines how many Miles you can earn every month.

Monthly account balance Miles cap
250,000 to 499,999 30,000
500,000 to 999,999 50,000
1,000,000 and above 83,333
