76% of UAE residents aren’t using their credit card benefits

UAE residents are missing out on credit card benefits worth thousands of dirhams each year. That’s according to a recent survey by finance comparison website compareit4me, which says 76% of consumers are failing to actually use the free benefits. The survey shows that a lack of awareness and planning is the reason consumers aren't’ using their benefits. With 5.9 million debit and credit cards being used in the UAE, experts at compareit4me say it’s important to compare the cards being offered and to choose one that best suits your lifestyle.
