TimesofMoney, a subsidiary of Network International, has signed a deal with Emirates NBD to offer online gifting services to Non Resident Indian (NRI) customers of the bank.

Under the deal, Emirates NBD’s UAE-based NRI customers can send wide range of gifts to their family and friends in India at discounted rates, using TimesofMoney’s Window2India Plus service.

The range of gifts are divided into variety of categories including home décor, chocolates, Indian sweets, gift vouchers, jewellery, cakes and flowers, spiritual gifts, healthcare and travel services, and property.

To use the service, the NBD bank’s credit and debit cardholders must register with Window2India Plus service.

Network International CEO Bhairav Trivedi said they value their long-standing association with Emirates NBD, and their recently forged alliance with TimesofMoney will enable them to create a host of very useful products for their partners.

"The Window2India Plus offering is our first step in this direction, and I am confident that given the loyal NRI franchise that Emirates NBD has combined with the compelling Window2India Plus proposition, we would be creating great value for the consumer," Trivedi added.

Emirates NBD retail assets and cards head, R Sivaram, said enhancing the customer experience is a significant driving force at Emirates NBD, and they are always on the lookout to provide value-added services that meet their customers’ specific requirements.
