Doha Festival City, Qatar's ultimate shopping, dining, and entertainment destination, has partnered with Qatar Islamic Bank (QIB) and Mastercard to launch an exclusive gift card. The latest cashless in-mall payment option can be used at all Doha Festival City retail, F&B, and entertainment outlets.
Powered by a Mastercard prepaid card solution, the Doha Festival City Gift Card offers shoppers a better, safer, and more convenient way to pay, ensuring a seamless checkout experience across the mall’s retailers. The new card makes a perfect gift for any occasion that provides access to over 500 stores, a wide variety of shopping, dining, and entertainment experiences under one roof. The Gift Card also has future plans to unlock exclusive perks for its holders.
Qatar’s residents and visitors can purchase the gift card at the dedicated customer service desk located on the ground and first floors of the Mall, and can load their cards with any amount ranging from QAR 50 through to QAR 5,000. The issuance process is fast and efficient – all customers need to do is present their QID. Once purchased, the card is non-refundable and non-reloadable. Each load is valid up to two years.
Users can check the card balance 24/7 at any QIB ATM. A four-digit pre-set PIN code is associated with the card, guaranteeing the utmost security.
Commenting on the launch of the gift card, Robert Hall, General Manager, Doha Festival City, said: “We are incredibly excited to launch this easy payment solution that allows our visitors to shop and pay effortlessly when purchasing from their preferred outlets at Doha Festival City.
