Issued by Dashen Bank and powered by Mastercard, the card is linked to Ethiopian Airlines’ ShebaMiles loyalty program. It enables customers to use one card for everyday and travel-related payments while accessing benefits including airport lounge access, airport fast track and global data roaming, in addition to the miles they earn in the air.

The collaboration combines Ethiopian Airlines’ travel network and loyalty program, Dashen Bank’s issuing capabilities, customer reach and Super App, and Mastercard’s global payment network, technology and premium card benefits.

Shehryar Ali, senior vice president and country manager for East Africa and Indian Ocean Islands at Mastercard, said: “Travel is increasingly becoming a connected digital experience, and consumers expect the same level of convenience, security and value from the way they pay. This unique collaboration brings together payments, loyalty and premium travel benefits in a single proposition, creating a differentiated experience for travellers while strengthening Ethiopia’s premium travel payments ecosystem.”

The card will be available in physical and virtual formats. Customers can access the virtual card through the Dashen Bank Super App, which serves more than 2 million active monthly users. Eligible cardholders will also have access to Mastercard Airport Experiences, which provides entry to a global network of more than 1,600 airport lounges.
