Air New Zealand is ratcheting up its frequent flyer card in a bid to replace most of the rest of the cards in your wallet.
Air New Zealand’s new Airpoints loyalty card will include an optional pre-paid debit card as well as an ePass tag to ease domestic check-in.
Once activated, the MasterCard branded debit card can be pre-loaded with up to four foreign currencies for use overseas or at foreign-based online retailers without accruing additional currency conversion fees. The debit card will also earn users frequent flyer points.
The airline says more its more than 700,000 New Zealander Airpoints members will begin receiving the new cards over the next few weeks.
