The Go4it Platinum earns its keep the moment you tap through a Metro gate — Gold Class access, RTA parking and free ferry rides make it the best transit companion in the UAE. Just don't confuse it with a rewards card: outside weekends and RTA spend, the points are almost decorative.

Earning and redeeming Plus Points

The Go4it Platinum earns Emirates NBD Plus Points at rates keyed to when and where you spend: 5 points per ⃃ 200 on weekends, 4 points per ⃃ 200 on RTA transit and just 1 point per ⃃ 200 on weekday spend. A per-statement earning cap applies, and the bank does not publish the cap amount on the card page.

Redemption is the flexible part: Plus Points can be redeemed instantly at key merchant outlets, converted to frequent flyer miles or turned into cashback. Given the thin weekday earn rate, think of the points as a small rebate on your commute rather than a reason to route spending through this card.

Pros and cons

Pros
Cons
  • One card for credit and Dubai transit — Metro (Gold Class), buses, parking meters, water bus and RTA monthly passes
  • No annual fee under the bank's current offer
  • Buy-1-get-1 movie tickets at VOX Cinemas and free Dubai Ferry rides
  • Complimentary life insurance cover up to ⃃ 100,000
  • 0% easy payment plans over 3–24 months at participating merchants
  • Weekday earning is negligible — 1 Plus Point per ⃃ 200 spent
  • Plus Points earning is capped per statement, and the bank does not publish the cap amount on the card page
  • ⃃ 12,000 minimum salary is steep for what is essentially a transit-convenience card
  • 1.99% foreign transaction fee plus roughly 1.15% network processing on top
  • Card replacement costs ⃃ 52.50 — higher than other ENBD cards because of the transit chip

Is it right for you?

Get this card if

  • You ride Dubai Metro, buses or use RTA parking most days — the Nol chip and Gold Class access are the real product
  • You want a no-cost card (under the current fee waiver) with cinema and ferry perks on the side
  • You value the ⃃ 100,000 complimentary life insurance

Consider skipping it if

  • You want meaningful rewards on everyday spend — weekday earning is 1 point per ⃃ 200
  • You spend abroad often — 1.99% plus network fees is a mediocre fx deal
  • You earn under ⃃ 12,000 a month — the Go4it Gold offers the same chip at ⃃ 5,000

Alternatives to consider

Same transit chip, lower salary barEmirates NBD Go4it Gold

The Go4it Gold keeps the built-in Nol chip and free Dubai Ferry rides at a ⃃ 5,000 minimum salary — you give up Gold Class and the VOX movie offer.

The LuLu 247 Platinum pays up to 7% back in LuLu Points on daily spend with no minimum spend — a far stronger earner than Go4it's 1 point per ⃃ 200 on weekdays.
