Yango Ride has linked up with Skywards Everyday, the lifestyle rewards app connected to Emirates Skywards, so that passengers in the UAE can earn loyalty miles on their daily commutes.
From now on, users earn 1 Skywards Mile for every AED 3 spent on eligible Yango rides. To activate the benefit, users need to download the Skywards Everyday app, log in with their Emirates Skywards credentials, save a payment card, and use that same card when booking Yango trips. Miles are credited automatically to the user’s Emirates Skywards account.
The service covers Yango Ride’s existing areas of operation: Abu Dhabi, Dubai, Sharjah and Ajman. Eligible rides also continue to qualify for Yango’s existing cashback benefits, so the miles accrue on top of rewards users already receive.
“This partnership connects two parts of people’s lives – how they move around the city and how they earn and redeem Skywards Miles through everyday activities. By enabling users to earn Skywards Miles on trips they already take, we are adding tangible value to everyday mobility in the UAE and making Yango Ride an even more useful part of their routine,” Islam Abdul Karim, Regional Head of Yango Group Middle East said in a statement.
For Emirates Skywards members, the tie-up adds another channel for earning points outside of flights and hotel stays, extending the programme’s reach into day-to-day ground transport.
