Club Rewards from Diners Club wins 'Best Affinity Charge/Credit Card Program' for a record-breaking ninth consecutive year as part of the prestigious Freddie Awards, presented by InsideFlyer magazine.

In addition to being recognized as the best card in its class, Diners Club U.S., along with partner Southwest Airlines won 'Best Award', recognizing a bonus promotion that enabled card members to save 25% when redeeming Club Rewards points for roundtrip tickets. 

Flexibility has been attributed as the cornerstone of Club Reward's long-term success and consistent accolades. The program offers a comprehensive selection of rewards in categories such as travel, merchandise, unique experiences, dining, shopping, financial options, and charitable contributions. In addition, the program includes Personalized Rewards, which allows card members to create their own rewards, bound only by their imagination. 

One of Diners Club's key areas of focus is recognizing and responding to emerging rewards trends and customer needs. In addition to offering frequent flyer miles with 20 airline partners, Club Rewards allows card members to travel anytime to anywhere with no blackouts or restrictions through its Tailored Travel program. This option has proven to be very appealing, since 75% of respondents in a recent Diners Club survey indicated that redeeming for frequent flyer miles is not always easy and most experience flight and seat restrictions. 

This recognition of yet another Freddie Award places Diners Club ahead of the competition and continues to deliver the rewards that individuals truly value. 

This year's 18th Annual Freddie Awards were decided by more than 390,000 of the world's most frequent travelers from 164 countries and regions.

Diners Club is a global brand with an established heritage as the world's first charge card. The Diners Club Card is currently issued in more than 65 local currencies around the world. Diners Club in North America is a key franchise within the Diners Club International network.
