RHB Multi-Currency Visa Debit/-i cardholders and RHB Visa Credit/-i cardholders can enjoy great discounts of up to 60% on flight tickets and hotel stay when they purchase travel packages with our travel merchant partner at the MATTA Fair. More significantly, holidaymakers can travel with peace of mind on their vacation break as the RHB Multi-Currency Visa Debit Card/-i, Malaysia’s first multi-currency debit card, enables one to transact with Ringgit Malaysia and up to 16 foreign currencies, thereby eliminating the need to manage excessive cash. In addition, the RHB Credit Card/-i provides cardholders with access to selected airport premium lounges and RHB loyalty points for overseas retail spend. RHB cardholders can also enjoy 0% p.a. instalment for up to 36 months via RHB Smart Instalment Payment Plan or Dial-an-Instalment with lower interest on their retail purchases.
