Resort developer and operator Sands China in collaboration with ICBC and MasterCard has rolled out two credit cards under its loyalty programme Sands Lifestyle.
The co-branded credit cards – Sands Lifestyle Platinum MasterCard and Sands Lifestyle World MasterCard – allow cardholders to earn points when shopping or travelling across the world and then redeem them in Macao within Sands Resorts Macao’s integrated resorts.
Shoppers can earn up to three times more points when they shop and 20 times more points when they stay at Sands Resorts Macao properties. Additionally, ICBC (Asia) gives three times more points when they spend overseas with the card.
The programme also marks the launch of MasterCard’s Pay with Rewards in Asia Pacific, providing cardholders the choice and freedom to spend points like cash at the moment of purchase.
Cardholders can avail a number of exclusive benefits including hotel stays, dining, shopping, events and entertainment.
They can also enjoy discounts on accommodation packages, ferry tickets, air travel and holiday packages with Cotai Travel, special offers at selected restaurants, among other benefits.
