Affin Bank is revising the air miles conversion rate for several of its credit cards, with the new rate set to take effect starting from 1 January 2024.
In a notice, the bank said that some of the cards that will be impacted by this latest development include the Affin World Mastercard, Affin UKM Alumni Premier World, and Affin Avance. Here’s the full list of updated rates for your reference:
Cards | Current conversion rate | 1 January 2024 onwards |
– Affin Invikta Visa Infinite – Affin Invikta World Mastercard | 6,000 AFFIN Rewards Points = 1,000 Enrich Points/AirAsia Points/Malindo Miles | 6,000 AFFIN Rewards Points = 1,000 Enrich Points/AirAsia Points/Malindo Miles |
– Affin World Mastercard – Affin UKM Alumni Premier World | 6,000 AFFIN Rewards Points = 1,000 Enrich Points/AirAsia Points/Malindo Miles | 10,000 AFFIN Rewards Points = 1,000 Enrich Points/AirAsia Points/Malindo Miles |
– Affin Avance Visa – Affin Avance Mastercard – Affin Avance Affiliate Card – Affin Avance Visa/Mastercard with overdraft/cash line facility – Affin Duo+ – Affin Duo – Affin MPN – Affin UKM Alumni Mastercard – Affin BHPetrol Mastercard – Affin Platinum Mastercard – Affin Visa Gold – Affin Mastercard Gold | 12,000 AFFIN Rewards Points = 1,000 Enrich Points 10,000 AFFIN Rewards Points = 1,000 AirAsia Points 9,000 AFFIN Rewards Points = 1,000 Malindo Miles | 14,000 AFFIN Rewards Points = 1,000 Enrich Points 12,000 AFFIN Rewards Points = 1,000 AirAsia Points 12,000 AFFIN Rewards Points = 1,000 Malindo Miles |
As you can see, the Affin World Mastercard and Affin UKM Alumni Premier World cards will see the biggest increase of 4,000 AFFIN Rewards Points in its air miles conversion rate. This comes up to a hike of about 66% following this update.
Aside from this change, Affin Bank said that the other privileges and benefits of all its credit cards will remain unchanged. Features such as the annual fees and annual income requirements, too, are maintained the same.

In the meantime, you still have some time to take advantage of the existing air miles conversion rate if you wish to, before the update takes effect come next year!
