These rewards are redeemable for a range of physical gifts and gadgets, he added.

On the other hand, he said, the NOMO (No Missing Out) Credit Card is AU SFB’s first secured credit card, backed by a Fixed Deposit (FD).

Designed for users who may not meet the criteria for unsecured credit cards due to factors like absence of a credit score, limited credit history, or absence of income proof, the NOMO credit card offers reward points on card usage along with additional benefits such as airport lounge access and fuel surcharge waivers, he added.

On the AU 0101 Business App, he said, it will serve as a one-stop shop for proprietorships and MSMEs, providing direct access to banking products and value-added services necessary for running and managing their businesses.
