You can earn Mango vouchers using a Nedbank credit card (the most with their American Express card). A rule of thumb is that if you're spending less than R31,000 a month on your credit card, you're better off with a Kulula credit card than a Nedbank American Express card. |
Kulula Credit Card Benefits
There's 3 main reasons to apply for a Kulula credit card: (1) Moolah, (2) extra baggage allowance & (3) more exposure to the famous Kulula humour. Here's some easy facts - 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. Kulula moolah expires after six months (i.e. the moolah you earn in January expires in June). You also get 5kg extra baggage allowance, allowing you 1 piece at 25kg. It's pretty easy to understand the value of Kulula moolah, as each R1 of Kulula moolah allows a R1 discount on a Kulula flight. To secure really cheap flights combine your moolah with Kulula specials.
