Muscat: Oman Arab Bank (OAB), has launched a new account to help youth manage their money effectively and encourage active savings from an early age. OAB’s Youth Account has been designed specifically for students between the ages of 18 to 24. It offers free mobile data, together with special discounts at numerous participating merchants across the country.
In partnership with Omantel, the Youth account comes with exclusive benefits, including up to 24GB of free mobile data annually. The free data is available to Youth account holders simply by maintaining a minimum monthly saving of OMR 200. In addition, all Youth account holders are also eligible to participate in the special youth draws as part of the Hasaad Savings Scheme Draws, by meeting the required minimum monthly balance for each draw.
Building on the bank’s commitment to enhancing its customers’ banking experience across all its customer touchpoints; OAB has simplified the account opening journey by issuing instant and personalised Debit Cards for youth account holders at 30 branches across the Sultanate.
