Public Bank and Esso Mobil launch co-brand cards
The PB-Esso Mobil Visa Gold Credit and Debit Cards, launched at the Esso service station in Jalan Ampang, Kuala Lumpur, focus on the needs of drivers and support their affiliation to the Esso and Mobil brands.
The launch was facilitated by Ms Chong You Lin, Senior General Manager of PB Card Services, Public Bank Berhad and Puan Faridah Ali, Retail Business Director of Esso Malaysia Berhad.
“Public Bank is proud to be in collaboration with Esso and Mobil on this exciting card programme. With their unique benefits, we expect the PB-Esso Mobil Visa Gold Credit and Debit Card to appeal to a wide customer spectrum. They would draw interest from existing as well as potential customers of Esso and Mobil alike,” commented Ms Chong.
"We’ve been working with Public Bank for a long time, and we look forward to continued growth with this new product. The cards offer a smart way to pay for quality Synergy fuels at our network of 560 Esso and Mobil stations nationwide. The cash rebates are of great value and help cardholders to save even as they spend," said Faridah.
The PB-Esso Mobil Visa Gold Credit Card is designed to appeal to income earners of RM18,000 and above per annum, whilst the PB-Esso Mobil Visa Debit Card is ideal for those who do not meet the age or income eligibility requirement, or those who just want to better monitor their finances, according to a Public Bank announcement.
The PB-Esso Mobil Gold Visa Credit Card and PB-Esso Mobil Visa Debit Card offer cash rebates of up to 5% and 1% respectively for any purchase transaction at Esso or Mobil service stations. Cardholders can also enjoy 0.5% cash rebate for other retail purchases made elsewhere.
An additional 3% cash rebate will be awarded to the PB-Esso Mobil Gold Credit Cards for cardholders who use the card at Esso or Mobil service stations during the 6 months promotion period until 31 March 2011. Also, the PB-Esso Mobil Gold Visa Credit Card and PB-Esso Mobil Visa Debit Card are offered with the annual fee waived for life with no conditions.
Esso Malaysia Berhad and ExxonMobil Malaysia Sdn Bhd are subsidiaries of ExxonMobil in Malaysia and market high quality fuels under the Esso and Mobil brands respectively.
