LIFE World Cashback Credit Card review
Cardholders earn 10% on online merchants Amazon, Noon and Careem, 7% on dine-in restaurants, 5% on international spend, 50% on refreshments and snacks and 1% on everything else. The premium categories are capped at AED 100 each for a AED 400 monthly maximum, while the 1% base rate is uncapped up to the card limit; a AED 5,000 cycle spend is needed to unlock cashback.
A AED 1,000 welcome cashback rewards AED 10,000 of spend in the first 60 days, and the same AED 5,000 spend that waives the AED 600 annual fee. Travel benefits include unlimited access to 25+ Lounge Key and Marhaba lounges, valet parking three times a month, UAE airport transfers, Meet & Greet and golf tee-times.
With its spend thresholds and a 3.5% foreign transaction fee that trims the international cashback, the card rewards consistent higher spenders who want the widest cashback coverage and lounge access in one Islamic card.
