Rêv, SAS, & Mastercard Extend Multi-Year Partnership, Launch the SAS EuroBonus Travel Wallet™ across Scandinavia

The entrance of Travel Wallet™ into the Scandinavian market marks the celebration of a renewed multi-year agreement between Rêv, the Scandinavian Airlines Group and Mastercard. Along with the SAS EuroBonus loyalty programme, Travel Wallet™ will leverage Rêv's proprietary payments processing platform, multi-currency functionality, and programme management experience, as well as the Mastercard network for acceptance of online and offline transactions.

"SAS continuously strives to offer the very best to our customers across their entire travel experience. The EuroBonus Travel Wallet™ is a prepaid Mastercard, perfect for anyone who values convenient control over exchange rates and spend, while earning EuroBonus points on purchases in everyday life or during travel," says Johan Mägi, Head of EuroBonus at Scandinavian Airlines.

The new SAS EuroBonus Travel Wallet™ programme brings Nordic travelers the following benefits:

• Universal Acceptance.  Mastercard acceptance at over 30 million merchants worldwide including ATMs, with a personalised Travel Wallet™ Mastercard, as well as a virtual card for high-security online purchases.
• Real-Time Foreign Exchange.  Travel Wallet™ supports 13 currencies, including Swiss Franc, Danish Krone, Euro, British Pound, Hong Kong Dollar, Japanese Yen, Norwegian Krone, Polish Zloty, Singapore Dollar, Swedish Krona, Thai Baht, Turkish Lira, and United States Dollar. Users will enjoy converting currencies to lock-in rates before a trip with a few simple clicks on the Travel Wallet™ Mobile App or the Travel Wallet™ Web Account Centre.
• EuroBonus Extra Points On Every Purchase.  Travel Wallet™ users are awarded EuroBonus Extra points on every purchase they make domestically or internationally, online and offline, at merchants around the world who accept Mastercard debit cards.
• Access to Mastercard Priceless Offers.  The Mastercard Priceless Cities programme invites Travel Wallet™ account holders to participate in exclusive activities. The programme offers something for all types, including travellers who fancy entertainment, arts & culture, culinary events, and sporting events.
• Enhanced Account Security. The SAS Travel Wallet™ Mobile App allows for Touch ID or Face ID login functionality, making the entire Travel Wallet™ experience more secure. Additionally, account holders are able to block and unblock a Travel Wallet™ Card from the mobile and smartwatch apps at any time.
• Smartwatch Account Access.  With the Travel Wallet™ Smartwatch App, users can access their accounts directly from their wrists -- literally -- at any time. The Travel Wallet™ Smartwatch App features a smart geolocation balance display, an easy access currency calculator, and a detailed view of the user's transaction history.

"We are pleased to extend our cooperation with Rêv and Scandinavian Airlines Group. With the launch of the SAS EuroBonus Travel Wallet, which comes with both a physical and virtual Mastercard, we facilitate easier and more secure payments on the trip. Consumers can feel they have control and feel confident that their payments are done in the most secure way, wherever they are," comments Erik Gutwasser, Regional Manager for Mastercard in the Nordics and Baltics.
