In line with its strategy to improve financial inclusion in Oman, Meethaq’s Ikram package offers a specialized package of Shariah-compliant financing products with attractive profit rates catering to Omani pensioners.

In this context, I would like to mention that Meethaq will continue to introduce new financial products and services targeting different sections of society in line with the changing needs of our customers to whom I extend thanks for their continuous trust in Meethaq’s products and services”.
Both current and new customers can benefit from the Ikram package which offers a wide range of services, competitive profit rates, exclusive financing offers, credit card offers and discounts at selected merchant partner outlets.
