Rewards Credit Card-i

What makes this card Islamic

RHB Islamic Bank 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.

PDS effective 18 December 2025 (ver 1.0) names Commodity Murabahah ("CM") via Tawarruq arrangement as the core contract, supported by Wakalah (customer appoints RHBIB as agent for the commodity trades), Ta'widh (late-payment compensation), Ibra' (rebate, including the rebate of the gap between the ceiling profit rate and the effective profit rate), Wa'ad (unilateral undertaking to purchase), Muqassah (set-off of the previous card balance on renewal) and Qard (any over-utilised amount above the approved credit limit is treated as an interest-free loan). MIGRATION: the immediately preceding PDS (effective 13 March 2025, ref FSHDE 018/2017_v17.0, captured by the Wayback Machine on 2025-09-02) named the Shariah concepts as Ujrah + Qard, not Tawarruq. RHB Islamic therefore migrated Ujrah+Qard -> Commodity Murabahah via Tawarruq with effect from 18 December 2025. No primary-source evidence was found that RHB Islamic ever used Bai' al-Inah for this card; the structure it replaced was Ujrah.

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

• The contractual ceiling profit rate is 28% p.a. The lower effective rate is delivered by ibra' (rebate), which is the bank waiving part of its contractual right - it is not a contractual cap.
• Fees and charges marked ** in the PDS are subject to 8% Service Tax under the Service Tax Act 2018.
• Cash advances carry a fixed 18% p.a. profit from the disbursement date with no profit-free period, on top of the 5%/min RM15 cash advance fee.
• RM200 annual fee from year two - the highest of RHB's Islamic cards other than Shell - unless you spend RM10,000 in the year.
