UAE credit card guide

How to compare UAE credit cards with confidence.

A useful comparison starts with the cost of holding the card, the rewards your normal spending can earn and whether the eligibility rules fit your finances.

Start with salary eligibility and annual fees

Check the stated minimum salary before comparing rewards. Then weigh the annual fee against the value you can realistically receive from cashback, miles, lounge access or retail benefits.

Read reward caps and spending conditions

A headline cashback rate may apply only to selected categories or monthly spending tiers. Every card detail page separates the advertised rate from caps, exclusions and redemption conditions.

Check your DBR before applying

A new credit limit can affect your debt burden ratio. Compare your shortlist first, then use the UAE DBR calculator to understand the wider affordability picture.
