Get it if
- You spend meaningfully outside the UAE and want a real 3.75% SmartMiles return on it
- You can comfortably clear AED 10,000/month in spend to unlock unlimited golf
- You value a Sharia-compliant Visa Infinite card with a genuine welcome bonus
Skip it if
- You don't want to track activation and monthly-spend criteria before relying on travel and lifestyle perks
- Your monthly spend won't reliably clear AED 5,000-10,000 for the cinema/golf perks
- Most of your spend is domestic — the 2.5 SmartMiles domestic rate is solid but not exceptional
