MBNA and Man U renew credit card deal

MBNA, the credit card provider, has renewed a long-standing deal with Manchester United.
As a result, the Manchester United credit card has been relaunced to fans in the UK, and offers users a range of incentives and discounts.
For every £50 they spend on the card, cardholders will be entered into a monthly prize draw offering them the chance to win signed Manchester United shirts and other memorabilia.
By using the credit card, fans can also benefit from a range of club discounts, including 10% off purchases in the UK Megastore dining at the Red Café, and the club’s online shop.
Manchester United’s commercial director, Richard Arnold said: This is the only credit card of its kind available to our eight million devoted followers in the UK.
“Different fans have different ways of showing their support and I am sure that many of them will find this card of interest because of the unique Red Rewards prizes and rewards it offers and because of the reassurance that it is brought to them by MBNA, one of the country’s most familiar and trusted card suppliers.”
The affinity partnership MBNA has established with Manchester United in the UK is one of MBNA’s most successful sports credit card programmes. The club and MBNA – part of Bank of America -have been partners since 1998.
