What makes this card Islamic

Saudi National 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.

Article 10 of the SNB credit card T&C governs the Tawarruq mechanism used across all SNB card types.

Approved by SNB Sharia Board, under the supervision of Saudi Central Bank (SAMA).

Where these figures come from

Last checked against Saudi National Bank’s published documents on 2026-08-17. Banks change fees without notice, so treat the bank’s own document as the final word, not this page.

What we could not verify

Saudi National Bank does not publish monthly profit rate, over-limit fee, takaful cover, minimum income, minimum age, maximum age, documents required, reward headline, reward caps, shariah certificate, annual profit rate 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.
