Earning structure

Ajeeb Rewards	Members earn ajeeb points on every purchase made with meem Visa credit cards (Platinum, Signature, Infinite). Enrollment is automatic on card activation - no separate registration required. Points post in real-time at point of sale. Selected purchases (notably grocery transactions) earn instant cashback up to 3%. Family members can be added via supplementary cards and earn points to the same account. Points-per-SAR rates vary by card tier.
Radisson Rewards	Members earn Radisson Rewards points on every paid stay at participating Radisson Hotel Group properties globally. Earn rates vary by tier: Club (entry, default) earns 9 points per USD spent on eligible room charges (excluding taxes and fees); Premium earns 27 points per USD; VIP earns 36 points per USD. Points also accrue on hotel incidentals charged to the room at participating properties. Members can also earn through Radisson promotional offers and the unique Discount Booster (2026) which trades fewer points for a higher instant discount (up to 20%) on the stay. Points can be purchased (up to 250,000 per year) but purchased points don't count toward elite status qualification. There are no Radisson Rewards credit cards available - co-brand cards were discontinued globally.

Redemption structure

Ajeeb Rewards	Points redeem via the ajeeb rewards portal (rewards.meem.com) or the meem app. Options include: direct travel booking - flights, hotels, and car rentals at home or abroad - with email confirmation within 60 minutes; retail vouchers from 170+ merchants across Saudi Arabia, Bahrain, and the UAE; merchandise; and transfer to Alfursan miles at 5,000 ajeeb points = 578 Alfursan miles, with miles credited to the Alfursan account within 10 business days. Instant cashback applies at participating grocery merchants at point of sale.
Radisson Rewards	Points redeem for award nights at any Radisson Hotel Group property worldwide. Standard room award nights start from 9,000 points, or 5,000 points with the Points + Cash option for partial payment. There are no blackout dates on standard room redemptions. Uniquely, members still receive elite benefits (room upgrades and late checkout) when booking with points — unlike some hotel chains. Award pricing is increasingly dynamic since 2022, though some sweet spots remain on the award chart. Members can also redeem for gift cards, merchandise, travel experiences, and donations to charity. Limited airline and travel partner transfer options exist but generally offer poor value due to the compressed point value (~0.25 cents USD per point industry valuation).
