Features at a glance |
|
One time Fee, Lifetime Free |
|
Owning a Credit Card is a basic right of a Qualified Financial Services Consumer – and there is no strong reason to pay fee every year for that right. |
|
At EBL, we have shown respect to this concept. To avail EBL Credit Card services, you need to pay the Issuance/Joining/Subscription/ Annual Fee only once. After that there is no annual fee for you as long as you transact at least 18 times in a whole year. |
|
It is a lifetime Card. As per market standard, an average cardholder uses his/her card almost 24 times annually. So, without doing anything extra - you can have the free renewal option – for the following year. |
