The card reflects FAB’s commitment to meeting the unique needs and expectations of its premium clientele through personalized, high-touch banking and lifestyle solutions.

First Abu Dhabi Bank (FAB) , in collaboration with Mastercard , announced the launch of the UAE’s first World Legend Exclusive Mastercard credit card – an invitation‑only offering designed for individuals who value exceptional experiences and highly personalized service.

Crafted for a select circle of FAB’s most discerning clients, the FAB Royale World Legend Exclusive card delivers a refined combination of bespoke design, premium service, immersive experiences, and advanced security features. The card reflects FAB’s commitment to meeting the unique needs and expectations of its premium clientele through personalized, high-touch banking and lifestyle solutions.

Cardholders gain access to an exceptional suite of global travel, dining, and lifestyle benefits*, including a dedicated relationship manager through Royale Lifestyle Concierge, privileged access to the Mastercard Premium Lifestyle Program, and international meet‑and‑greet services across 60 destinations. Members will also enjoy access to leading global economic forums in partnership with Bloomberg.

In addition, cardholders will benefit from The Mastercard Collection, a new suite of elevated benefits that unlocks a world of premium experiences – from priority reservations at top restaurants featuring specially curated menus, to presale access and premium tickets, as well as fast‑track airport services at major hubs worldwide.

“At FAB, our collaboration with Mastercard is all about creating meaningful value for our customers. FAB Royale is more than a card—it’s a gateway to unique experiences, tailored to each member’s preferences.”

Yousef Nabil, VP, Head of Royale and UHNI Cards, FAB

“The FAB Royale World Legend Exclusive Mastercard embodies the shared commitment of Mastercard and FAB to bring first-of-its-kind, differentiated products to market. Its invitation-only status, curated benefits and seamless global acceptance ensure cardholders enjoy exceptional experiences wherever they are.”

Gina Petersen‑Skyrme, Senior Vice President and Country Manager, UAE & Oman, Mastercard

Building on the success of the McLaren Racing Mastercard Pass launched last year, the FAB Royale World Legend Exclusive marks the next chapter in the Mastercard–FAB partnership, further enhancing the experiences and value delivered to cardholders.
