What is the Esaad card?

The Esaad card is a discount card programme launched by Dubai Police in 2017, and offers discounts at partner outlets and establishments, from airlines, to home décor, restaurants and more.

While the discount card is normally only available to specific groups of employees, residents, and special categories, through the competition, Dubai Police is offering the card to five residents as part of the competition.
