From curated seasonal menus at exclusive restaurants, to complimentary wine and children’s dining privileges, Mastercard Platinum, World and World Elite cardholders now have access to the best of Asia Pacific’s culinary scene simply by paying with a Mastercard.
Part of a larger refresh of its affluent platform, the range of new dining benefits connects cardholders to the things they cherish most. These include making meaningful use of their limited time to form connections and indulging in new experiences with the people they love.
Jenn Ong, head, Consumer Credit, Asia Pacific for Mastercard, said, “With its melting pot of diverse cuisines, Asia Pacific’s consumers are united by their appreciation of good food. A cornerstone of Asian culture, mealtimes are when many form business partnerships or bond with their loved ones.” She added, “With this knowledge in mind, we are excited to announce our new suite of Affluent dining privileges, as we deepen our commitment to creating priceless moments for them.”
Wielding greater spending power than previous generations, Asia Pacific’s affluent consumers devote a significant portion of their income to dining out. They are also keen to explore new cuisines and varied dining options.
Ong said, “Mastercard’s research on consumer dining habits indicate that Asia Pacific consumers’ appetite for dining out remains strong despite an uncertain economic outlook and revealed that they are increasingly seeking fine dining experiences.”
With that in mind, Mastercard is offering the most rewarding dining experiences to its cardholders which include, Mastercard Epicurean Experiences where World and World Elite cardholders can enjoy priority reservations and exclusively crafted menus by avant-garde visionaries and Michelin-starred chefs at 20 top restaurants globally.
