Emirates NBD, the largest bank in the United Arab Emirates,
has announced the launch of SkyShopper – an online marketplace for its
customers.
The new platform enables credit and debit card customers to
shop and pay for purchases, ranging from flights and hotels to entertainment
and groceries from different retailers – using one consolidated checkout.
Emirates NBD has partnered with prominent retailers to offer
its customers a wide variety of products and services along with a seamless and
safe shopping experience. SkyShopper’s current partners include the popular
travel booking sites Cleartrip and Musafir, leading fashion and lifestyle
portal Namshi and electronics stores such as Axiom, Jumbo and Sharaf DG.
In addition, customers will also be able to shop at
international online stores with delivery to the UAE consolidated and routed
through a US shipping address (MyUS.com) and at My Smart Price (MSP) India with
delivery anywhere in India. New partnerships in the pipeline include
Booking.com, The Luxury Closet, 6th STREET.COM and Headout.
Suvo Sarkar, senior executive vice president and group head
of retail banking and wealth management at Emirates NBD, said: “The launch of
SkyShopper is to enrich the shopping experience and provide added value to
Emirates NBD customers who are increasingly making online purchases.
“Despite its rapid growth, the UAE’s e-commerce sector
continues to be based largely on cash on delivery. SkyShopper is uniquely
positioned to change that by providing customers the security and convenience
of purchasing everything from airline tickets to mobile phones and luxury items
to groceries via Emirates NBD’s trusted payment platform, in addition to
exclusive deals and promotions.”
