Fringe Benefits by Matrix – A lot more than you expected

Matrix international SIM cards, one of the world's most preferred communication partners, does not only offer great savings and fantastic network coverage. There are also a host of benefits, thanks to the widespread affiliate network across various domains.

To begin with, Matrix is now a reward partner with American Express, and all American Express card holders now have the option of redeeming their points for a Matrix gift voucher worth Rs. 5000. Another benefit is in the form of travellers cheques from American Express, as a person issuing the same can get a rental free SIM card with 15 minutes of talk time for calls to India. In the USA, the same entails 200 minutes of local talk time, while a person in Malaysia, Singapore and Thailand gets free value worth Rs. 400. Also, if a person is in China, then he/she can get a permanent SIM card with Rs. 999 if he/she goes for a China Matrix connection. There is also an offer for Lufthansa Miles and More members, who can earn 10,000 award miles upon purchase of a Matrix connection. Further, every Rs. 100 spent on a Matrix connection gives a person double the mile, i.e., 10 miles instead of 5. One can also earn 1000 miles by signing up for the Rs. 1999 Germany annual plan, and 500 miles for the Rs. 999 Germany or UK annual plans.
