Raiffeisen Bank
International has rolled out an all-in-one Visa branded credit card
and frequent flier card in cooperation with the airlines air Berlin
and flyNiki.

The Air Berlin and NIKI
Visa Card is linked to topbonus, the frequent flier programme of
the airlines.

Cardholders will be able
to automatically earn reward miles both on flights and from
transactions with topbonus cooperation partners each time they make
a payment or withdraw money.

Gerald Kubu, head of the
Card Service department at Raiffeisen, said:

“We are offering a
credit, status and frequent flier card, as well as insurance
protection, all in one card.”

Raiffeisen said it was
awarded the cards deal following a competitive tender involving
Austria’s leading cards issuers.
