The prize, valued at KD 2 million, was awarded on Feb 1, 2024, with oversight and attendance from representatives of the Ministry of Commerce and Industry and Ernst & Young.
Upon concluding the prize handover formalities and transferring KD 2 million to the winner’s personal account through her father, he conveyed his delight and happiness for this extraordinary moment in his family’s life. He extended gratitude to Gulf Bank for its ongoing commitment to rewarding its customers.
The father of the winner, noting that his 4-year-old daughter secured the grand prize, expressed that, while searching for a savings account with exceptional rewards, he discovered no better option than the Al-Danah Millionaire account. He created Al-Danah accounts for all his children, with his daughter Alaa, emerging as the lucky winner of the grand prize.
Mohammad Al-Qattan, Gulf Bank’s General Manager of Consumer Banking, extended congratulations to the winner for becoming the youngest recipient of the world’s largest prize linked to a bank account. He reaffirmed Gulf Bank’s dedication to delivering an outstanding banking experience for customers, emphasizing its commitment to rewarding savers and fostering a culture of savings within society.
Al-Qattan highlighted that Gulf Bank’s prize giveaways continue, with numerous opportunities for monthly, quarterly, semi-annual, and annual draws. He further noted that in two months, Al-Danah customers will be able to participate in the upcoming KD 1 million draw scheduled for July 18, 2024.
He stated, “We are excited to keep rewarding our customers for their savings in the Al-Danah Millionaire account. We urge everyone to continue saving in their accounts, enhancing their opportunities to win in the upcoming draws. These encompass the annual grand draw of KD 2 million and a semi-annual draw of KD 1 million. Furthermore, there are two draws offering a prize of KD 100,000 each, in addition to 10 winners in the monthly draws receiving KD 1,000 each.”
The Al-Danah account welcomes both Kuwaiti and non-Kuwaiti residents in Kuwait. They have the option to open an account either by visiting the branch or using the mobile application. A minimum of KD 200 is required to open an account, and the same amount must be maintained for customers to be eligible for the upcoming Al-Danah draws. If the customer’s account balance falls below KD 200 at any given time, a KD 2 monthly fee will be charged to the account, until the minimum balance is met.
Gulf Bank encourages Al-Danah customers to raise their chances of winning by increasing their depositing amount, using the electronic payment service available through the bank’s website and mobile application. The grand prize in the annual draw of the Al-Danah Millionaire account has once again, secured a place in the Guinness World Records as the largest cash prize linked to a bank account globally. This notable achievement was recognized during the winner’s announcement ceremony last Thursday, February 1, 2024. Mohammad Al-Qattan, the General Manager of Consumer Banking at Gulf Bank, was presented with a certificate of registration for Gulf Bank in the Guinness World Records.
