When spending by using the Kulula credit card you earn "Kulula moolah", a pseudocurrency which can be used to purchase Kulula flights (for yourself or others). When you purchase Kulula flights with your Kulula credit card you earn a bonus amount of Kulula moolah equivalent to 3% of the cost of the flights. At the time of writing this article Kulula were offering R200 to use towards the purchase of a Kulula flight, if you spent R1000 on your Kulula credit card in the first month. Kulula moolah expires after six months (i.e. the moolah you earn in January expires in June).
Monthly spend translates into Kulula moolah as follows |
|
|---|---|
spend R0 - R5 000 |
earn 3% back in kulula moolah |
spend R5 001 - R10 000 |

spend R10 001 - R20 000 |
earn 1% back in kulula moolah |
spend over R20 000 |
earn 0% |
The Kulula credit card has a complex fee structure (but to be fair, no more complex than most other banks - the exception being the Virgin Money credit card, which has a very simple fee structure).
