Our take 2.5

2.5 Banky rating

Pros

  • A generous grace period: up to 55 days on purchases only before interest charges begin to accrue.
  • EgyptAir Miles Program: The card's standout feature is the ability to earn flight miles on your daily spending, as it awards you one point/mile for every pound spent.
  • Minimum Repayment: Repayment flexibility starting at just 5% of the total outstanding balance per month.
  • Receive free SMS notifications
  • Low issuance fees: The annual issuance or renewal fee is 150 EGP for the primary card and only 25 EGP for the supplementary card.

Cons

  • Low credit limit: Just like the Classic categories, the card's maximum credit limit is 9,999 pounds.
  • Debit interest rate: 3.50% per month on purchases and cash withdrawals if the outstanding balance is not paid in full within the grace period.
  • Cash withdrawal fees (2%, with a minimum of EGP 10 at National Bank of Egypt ATMs and EGP 20 at local banks).

Our take

If you travel frequently with EgyptAir and are looking for a basic, low-fee credit card to earn extra miles on your small, everyday purchases—such as groceries, fuel, or utility bills—this card would be a smart and practical choice. However, if you are seeking a higher credit limit or perks like complimentary airport lounge access, we recommend opting for a higher-tier card, such as the Mastercard Titanium or Platinum.

The card is excellent if your primary goal is to use it for purchases within Egypt—such as at supermarkets or for paying bills—and to accumulate points and miles (one mile for every Egyptian pound spent), which can then be used to book flights with EgyptAir.
