SCB enhances overseas travel experience, making journeys even more satisfying Unveiling three exclusive PLANET SCB
Siam Commercial Bank (SCB) remains dedicated to crafting novel experiences tailored to diverse lifestyles. Recent data from PLANET SCB card usage reveals a remarkable surge in customers and card spending, more than doubling since the country’s reopening in 2022. The top five product categories preferred by customers for card transactions are fashion, department stores, restaurants, hotels, and education. Interestingly, the most popular foreign currencies for spending are JPY, GBP, EUR, USD, and KRW (data as of June 2023). These trends align with SCB EIC data projections, indicating a return to normalcy in the tourism sector. As a result, it is anticipated that the hotel and aviation businesses will fully recover by the end of 2024. In light of the growing demand for foreign tourism among Thai people and to enhance their travel experiences, SCB has launched the “Experience Three Super Cool Privileges with PLANET SCB Card!” campaign. This campaign offers three exclusive privileges for new PLANET SCB cardholders comprising: Step 1: Receive 200 baht cash back for the entry fee; Step 2: Enjoy a 50% discount e-coupon for access to the Miracle Lounge, valued at up to 750 baht, by paying the access fee with a PLANET SCB card (limited to one privilege per cardholder throughout the campaign period); and Step 3: Get complimentary access to airport lounges worldwide with DragonPass when spending at least 20,000 baht in foreign currency via the PLANET SCB card during the promotion period (one card per promotional period per person). Additionally, cardholders can benefit from discounts of up to 50% at more than 20 renowned brand stores from May 1, 2023, to January 31, 2024. Mrs. Sunsuda Sangiambut, Senior Vice President of the Issuing Products Division at Siam Commercial Bank, proudly participated in the campaign launch.
The PLANET SCB card stands out with its unique feature of offering a world of free currency exchange, enabling users to spend across the globe while enjoying competitive exchange rates comparable to leading money changers. With the ability to exchange up to 13 popular currencies on a single card, including Thai baht, customers can experience the convenience of spending in any currency worldwide without incurring a 2.5% foreign currency conversion fee. The process is made easy, fast, and accessible 24/7 through the SCB EASY application.
