BBK and CrediMax Partner to Offer Exclusive Luxury Shopping Experiences in Europe

BBK, a leading retail and corporate bank in Bahrain, has recently announced a new partnership with The Pastor Collection. This collection owns 12 luxury shopping destinations across Europe, China, and the United States. As a result, the partnership aims to provide BBK and CrediMax cardholders with exclusive luxury shopping experiences, complete with special discounts and services.

The Pastor Collection’s shopping destinations are located in major European cities, including London, Dublin, Munich, Paris, and Barcelona. These destinations follow the “village” concept, offering outdoor shopping, luxurious hospitality, and fine dining. Therefore, customers can explore a variety of merchandise from global fashion and lifestyle brands while enjoying a relaxed atmosphere.

Through this partnership, BBK is offering exclusive benefits to its customers, along with CrediMax cardholders. For example, they can enjoy a 10% discount on purchases at all Pastor Collection destinations in Europe. Additionally, BBK offers a free carry-on shopping service. This offer is valid until December 31, 2025.

Moreover, BBK extends even more benefits for its Elite and Private customers. These customers can access all of the previous offers and additional perks, such as private suites, personal shopping services, a personal chauffeur, and concierge assistance.

BBK’s Chief Executive Officer, Yaser Alsharifi, expressed his excitement about the partnership. He stated, “We are committed to enhancing the banking experience for our customers. By partnering with The Pastor Collection, we can offer unique luxury shopping experiences at the best prices across Europe.”

Furthermore, Alsharifi highlighted that BBK works tirelessly to provide innovative solutions and rewards that promote financial well-being. He emphasized the bank’s ongoing efforts to partner with major retailers and international brands, which strengthens BBK’s leadership in Bahrain’s banking sector.

Laurent Vinay, Chief Brand and International Communications Officer at The Pastor Collection, also shared his enthusiasm. “We are proud to partner with BBK and CrediMax,” he said. “This collaboration allows us to offer Bahrain-based customers luxury shopping experiences with exclusive discounts and high-end services.”

To redeem the 10% discount, customers must download a personalized VIP Pass and add it to their eWallet. Then, they can present this pass at participating stores and restaurants in the villages. Additionally, to access the free shopping service, customers need to show their VIP Pass at the concierge.

For those wishing to book a private suite or personal shopping service, they must reserve at least 48 hours in advance by emailing the designated Guest Services addresses listed on The Pastor Collection’s website.
