Digital travel platform Agoda and financial services group DBS have unveiled a partnership to offer DBS Hong Kong customers an exclusive reward points redemption system.

This initiative allows DBS Credit Cardholders to pay for hotel bookings on Agoda using DBS$ and COMPASS Dollar, enhancing their travel experience with great value deals.

Customers can quickly redeem their points by logging into a dedicated Agoda website, choosing their accommodation, and then proceeding to the DBS platform to select the number of points for redemption.

This feature simplifies the booking process and offers the flexibility to offset costs partially for those with insufficient points.

Damien Pfirsch, Chief Commercial Officer at Agoda, said,

“Getting great travel deals just got so much easier for Hong Kong DBS Credit Cardholders with this latest partnership. Helping DBS customers to ‘earn and burn’ loyalty points when purchasing travel products provides a win-win for our DBS partner and their customers.”

“DBS is excited to team up with Agoda to provide customers with a unique way to make the most of their reward points which demonstrates DBS’s ongoing commitment in offering DBS Credit Cardholders more than just rewards, but meaningful experiences and gateways for adventuring, exploring and enriching our customers’ travel experiences,”

said Emily Ip, Head of Cards and Unsecured Lending, Consumer Banking Group and Wealth Management at DBS Bank (Hong Kong) Limited, said,

For the launch month, DBS Black World Mastercard holders will enjoy a special rewards redemption rate, where DBS$1 equals HK$2, and an additional seven percent discount on hotel bookings year-round.
