What makes this card Islamic

CIMB Islamic builds this card on a Tawarruq contract. The bank sells you a commodity on credit at a marked-up price, you sell that commodity to somebody else for cash, and the cash becomes your spending limit.

Commodity Murabahah (Tawarruq), per the CIMB Islamic Bank Credit Card Product Disclosure Sheet dated 1 January 2026. MIGRATION — DATED AND CONFIRMED: ran on UJRAH until 31 December 2025; converted to TAWARRUQ effective 1 JANUARY 2026 under CIMB's Important Notice dated 21 November 2025 (Update dated 31 December 2025); CIMB states the transition is 'closely guided and monitored by Bank Negara Malaysia (BNM)'. Named explicitly in CIMB's conversion FAQ as one of the four covered cards. No evidence of Bai' al-Inah was found for CIMB Islamic.

Approved by CIMB Islamic Bank Berhad Shariah Committee, under the supervision of Bank Negara Malaysia.

Age
21 and over
Other conditions
The product page states eligibility only as 'Preferred Clients Only' — CIMB publishes NO income figure for this card. Eligibility is therefore governed by CIMB Preferred Status (CPS), whose own Terms and Conditions require 'a minimum AUM of Ringgit Malaysia Two Hundred Fifty Thousand (RM250,000.00) at all times; OR ... A minimum individual loan/financing (Housing Loan/Home Financing/Business Premises Loan/Financing) of Ringgit Malaysia One Million (RM1,000,000.00) with the Bank for the first twelve (12) months'. AUM is defined as deposits and/or investments and/or bancassurance/bancatakaful with the Bank and/or CIMB Islamic. The 8X Bonus Points rate additionally requires maintaining a minimum RM250,000 AUM balance at all times. Applicants aged at least 21 who cannot prove annual income must pledge a Fixed Deposit-i equal to the credit limit. No maximum age is published.

What we could not verify

CIMB Islamic does not publish minimum income, maximum age, monthly profit rate, shariah certificate, over-limit fee, documents required for this card, so we have left those blank rather than guess. If you need one of them, ask the bank directly and hold them to the answer in writing.
