Abu Dhabi, 12 August 2026: First Abu Dhabi Bank (FAB) has launched a new salary transfer offer that rewards customers with up to 9,000 a year, not simply for transferring their salary, but for what they do with it afterwards. The UAE's global bank and one of the world's largest and safest financial institutions, FAB is paying out the cashback, equivalent to 20% of one month's salary, in monthly instalments over 12 months.
The offer introduces a differentiated approach to salary transfer rewards, linking cashback to customers’ everyday financial behaviour after payday and giving them a practical way to earn value from saving or responsible spending at a time when many consumers are focused on budgeting and maximising the value of their income.
Running until 31 December 2026, the offer is available to customers who transfer a minimum monthly salary of 5,000 to FAB. Customers can receive up to 750 per month, which is the equivalent of up to a total of 9,000 over one year, with no lock-in period, giving customers full flexibility over how they choose to take part.
To qualify for the monthly cashback, customers must either save an amount equivalent to 20% of their monthly salary in a FAB account or spend 20% of their salary using a FAB credit card. This gives customers the flexibility to earn rewards in line with how they manage their money after payday. Customers can choose the route, saving or spending that best fits their personal circumstances, deciding for themselves how they earn their reward each month.
The offer comes as consumers across the UAE place greater emphasis on saving, budgeting and maximising value from everyday banking. By bringing together salary transfer, saving, and credit card engagement, the offer provides customers with clear routes to earn a tangible monthly cashback. It is designed to support customers in getting more out of their everyday life, turning each salary payment into an opportunity to build healthier financial habits, whether through saving or responsible spending.
The new salary transfer offer reinforces the bank’s commitment to flexible banking solutions that support customers' everyday financial needs, whether they prioritise building savings or maximising the value of their spending.
