Aktia and Finnair to launch a new Finnair Visa credit card
Aktia Bank PlcPress release2 November 2021 at 12.00 p.m.
Aktia and Finnair have agreed on co-operation and will
introduce a new Finnair Visa credit card into the market in spring
2022. With the co-operation, one of the most popular credit cards
in the world will be made available to Finnair Plus members and at
the same time, they will earn Finnair Plus points by making
purchases with the card.
Finnair Plus points can be used not only for award flights but
also, for example, for upgrading the travel class, hotel nights or
gift cards from restaurants. Finnair Plus points can also be
donated to different charities, such as UNICEF, CMI or The Finnish
Association for Nature Conservation.
“We want to offer our customers first class means of payment,
and co-operation with an iconic and reliable Finnish company such
as Finnair is a special cause of joy for Aktia. I cannot wait to be
able to introduce the new card into the market during next spring,”
says Anssi Huhta, EVP, Director for Banking
Business at Aktia.
“It is great that we can make a new way of making payments
available to our customers together with Aktia. With the Finnair
Visa credit card, our customers will have even more comprehensive
opportunities to earn Finnair Plus points,” says Pekka
Antila, Director of the Finnair Plus programme.
The procurement instructions and the more detailed card terms
will follow later in spring 2022.
