Credit cards

Our take

The Visa Infinite Credit Card from Suez Canal Bank is one of the strongest premium credit cards for high-spending customers and frequent travelers, offering a comprehensive range of rewards, airport lounge access, concierge services, travel privileges, insurance benefits, and flexible installment plans of up to 60 months.

A premium travel-focused credit card offering luxury benefits, exclusive global privileges, strong rewards, and comprehensive protection services.

Our take

The UEFA Champions League Mastercard is a significant upgrade over traditional Titanium cards if you are seeking a higher credit limit (£250,000) and wish to take advantage of features like an annual interest-free installment plan and cashback on online purchases. However, if you are aiming for unlimited airport lounge access, the card is still subject to Mastercard’s recent restrictions; you would still need a Platinum-tier card or higher to avoid these limitations.

The National Bank of Egypt’s UEFA Champions League Mastercard credit card is specifically designed for football fans and enthusiasts of European tournaments.

Our take

A card suitable for everyday spending thanks to a cashback feature of up to 6% on local purchases, with extra perks like airport lounge access and flexible installment plans, making it appealing for those looking for direct returns on their expenses. It's strong in cashback and daily use but offers fewer exclusive perks compared to higher-tier cards.

Our take

The Titanium card offers a good mix of flexibility and security with a decent credit limit, a good grace period, and withdrawal and installment benefits suitable for everyday use. It's a practical and balanced card, though it has fewer exclusive perks compared to the Platinum one.

Our take

The TMG Visa Titanium Card, issued by Emirates NBD in partnership with Talaat Moustafa Group, is an exceptional choice for frequent shoppers and visitors within TMG destinations. The card offers an outstanding rewards program featuring a high, uncapped cashback rate on group spending, a generous grace period, and a comprehensive suite of digital banking services, installment plans, and flexible repayment options.

A rewarding card for regular customers of Talaat Moustafa Group due to its generous perks, though users should mind its high fees and interest rates if balances are not paid in full.

Our take

The Alexandria Bank platinum card offers a strong mix of flexibility and perks, with a high credit limit and a decent grace period, plus points, shopping, and travel benefits that make it a good choice for the middle and upper class.

Our take

The National Bank of Egypt (NBE) Titanium Mastercard is an excellent choice for the mid-range segment seeking a balance between fees and services. However, the card has certain limitations for international travelers due to recent conditions imposed by Mastercard regarding airport lounge access. If you are an employee looking for a card for daily purchases, emergencies, and installment plans within Egypt, it is one of the best options in its price category. Conversely, if you desire the prestige of travel perks, unlimited free airport lounge access, or high spending limits, it is better to skip this option and apply directly for the Platinum card.
