Once Eazy Financial begins issuing its first national cards, its customers will get access to the Discover Global Network and be able to make transactions at more than 50 million merchants in more than 200 countries and territories.
“Growing acceptance will benefit cardholders and partners”
This partnership is Discover’s second network alliance signed in the past year in Bahrain and will grow acceptance to almost 100% for Discover Global Network cardholders transacting in the country.
It is also the sixth alliance agreement Discover has signed in the Middle East and North Africa region.
“Continually growing acceptance in this area will benefit all of the cardholders of our regional partners,” said Matt Sloan, vice president of international markets at Discover. “Eazy Financial has a strong footprint in the country and working together will provide its cardholders a strong card product.”
