Global developer Emaar Properties has unveiled, ‘U By Emaar,’ a unique, customer-focused rewards programme that brings added value for their guests across the breadth of hotels, restaurants and entertainment attractions under the company.
U By Emaar is designed by Emaar Hospitality Group in association with Emaar Entertainment. The distinctively rewarding programme is open for individuals over 18 years from anywhere in the world. Members are rewarded with Upoints, the currency of U By Emaar when they stay, dine or enjoy any entertainment experience offered by Emaar’s diverse participating portfolio of choices.
One Upoint is earned for every one dirham of eligible spend at participating hotels and restaurants, and for every two dirhams of eligible spend at participating entertainment attractions. Ten Upoints are equivalent to one dirham when redeeming Upoints.
Enrolling in U By Emaar is effortless. Guests can enrol online or directly through any of the assets of Emaar Hospitality Group or Emaar Entertainment or the dedicated online portal https://www.ubyemaar.com. Signing up is simple and means that members can start to earn Upoints at participating venues on hotel stays, dining out or entertainment experiences instantly.
Upoints can be redeemed at Emaar outlets with no blackout dates. Subject to terms and conditions, residents of serviced residences of The Address Hotels + Resorts can also benefit from the U By Emaar membership rewards programme.
The participating hotel brands in the U By Emaar programme include all properties under The Address Hotels + Resorts, Vida Hotels and Resorts, and its distinctive portfolio of Emaar Leisure Clubs. U By Emaar is also applicable on dining at any of Emaar Hospitality Group’s restaurants, lounges or Lifestyle Dining assets at The Address Hotels + Resorts, Vida Hotels and Resorts, Arabian Ranches Golf Club, Dubai Polo & Equestrian Club and Dubai Marina Yacht Club. The participating entertainment attractions include all Reel Cinemas, KidZania®, SEGA Republic, Dubai Ice Rink, Dubai Aquarium & Underwater Zoo and Njoi.

The U By Emaar loyalty programme will further enhance the popularity of these attractions by making it simple for our repeat guests to enrol, earn and redeem for unbeatable rewards.”
Members across all tiers can redeem their Upoints at Emaar’s participating hotels, dining and entertainment attractions.
