Khaleeji Bank, one of the leading Islamic banks in the Kingdom of Bahrain, has announced details of the “Al Waffer” Account’s prizes for 2026, as part of an expanded edition that is the largest in the program’s history. With total prizes exceeding USD 5 million, this edition places a strong emphasis on providing the opportunity for the largest possible number of clients to win valuable cash prizes throughout the year.

 

The 2026 program is headlined by three Grand Prizes worth USD 1 million each, to be awarded in the December 2026 raffle, in addition to four Grand Prizes worth USD 250,000 each, scheduled to be raffled in March, May, July, and September. This is complemented by regular Monthly Prizes under the “Al Waffer Club” and “Ajyal Al Waffer” programs, further enhancing winning opportunities across different age groups and establishing “Al Waffer” as a comprehensive and integrated savings program.

 

Under the program, the “Al Waffer Club” offers Monthly Prizes worth USD 5,000 to four winners throughout the year, while the “Ajyal Al Waffer” program provides Monthly Prizes worth USD 1,000 to five winners from the youth segment. This approach reinforces the concept of early saving and encourages families to involve their children in a rewarding savings journey.

 

The “Al Waffer” Account allows clients to automatically enter prize raffles for every BD 25 deposited, with a minimum opening balance of BD 50 only. Clients can further enhance their chances through the “Double Points System” by maintaining their account balance without withdrawals for 90 days prior to the raffle. The account can be opened easily through the Bank’s branches or via the Khaleeji App, ensuring flexible and accessible participation in all raffles.
