Key Facts on using Covered Cards

(Important to read carefully and understand)

1. It is advisable to always make monthly payments more than the minimum due requested according to the last statement issued by the bank in order to replenish your Wakala account ( available balance to use) rather than making minimum payment that mainly covers the fees and charges on the Card and only small portion remains as an available balance to use.

2. In case you choose to make only the minimum payment by the due date, then the bank will keep calculating the Profit ( net between the Murabaha and Wakala Profits) on daily basis till the full Wakala outstanding (Card available balance) is covered. This includes new transactions made after the statement issuance.

3. Please ensure that you round up the total dues requested by the bank and pay the exact amount before or on the due date to avoid paying the profit that is calculated on daily basis until the payment date. To clear any doubt, below example provides illustration on this payment scenario.

• If the cover is AED 10,000 and you used the AED 10,000 (out of which
AED 3,000 is cash withdrawal):
a. If you pay  AED 10,000, you will pay to the bank profit for AED 3,000
b. If you pay less than AED 10,000, you will pay profit for the full AED 10,000

• If the cover is AED 10,000 and you  used AED 8,000 as retail purchases:
a. If you pay AED 8,000, you will not pay profit.
b. If you pay the minimum up to 7,999, (or fails to pay any amount), you will pay to the Bank profit for AED 8,000 = {AED 10,000 -AED 2,000}.
c. If you fail to pay any amount, you will pay to the Bank profit for
AED 8,000 and LPF (donation) charges shall apply.

4. If you will pay the total outstanding on or before the due date, SIB will credit the difference between the Murabaha profit and the Wakala profit as bonus, and in this case no profit to be paid by you to the bank.

Warning! Continuous failure to make the regular payments on time, will expose you to further charges (Late Payment to Charity) and may lead to further legal action by the bank.


I have understood the following information for the selected Cashback Covered Card :

• Product details – Product features, Cashback offer, payment terms and documentation requirements.

• Cashback Points will be awarded on the card based on the spends made as per the transaction category and awarded on a monthly basis after the issuance of statement.

• The bank, at its discretion, has the right to change the fees or any offer terms at any time without obtaining customer’s written consent, provided that such a change to be communicated to the customer through means of communication that guarantee customer has been advised. If the bank does not receive any objection from the customer within 60 days from notification date, this will be considered as customers’ consent. However; in case the customer doesn’t agree to the change made by the bank, the two parties may agree to settle the relevant card liability or shift to
 another product.

• Once the Covered Card is received by the customer, the customer shall be liable to make any payments on the card as requested by the bank via SMS or monthly statements. To avoid any doubts regarding payments date, it is advisable to contact the call center upon card activation to check this information.
