TMBThanachart, or TTB, reinforces its commitment to enhancing the financial lives of Thai people in collaboration with Siam Global House, a leader in the sale of construction materials and home decor, to launch the ttb Global House credit and cash withdrawal cards, allowing Thais to purchase construction materials and home decor more affordably. The goal is to become a Top 4 leader in the credit card and personal loan market within three years.

Mr. Piti Thantakasem, CEO of TMBThanachart, stated that TTB is dedicated to driving its mission to improve customers' financial lives through its core strategy, Ecosystem Play, which leverages the strengths of its popular products into financial solutions that meet customer needs. By partnering with a strong ally like Siam Global House to launch the ttb Global House credit and cash withdrawal cards, this marks the first step in creating a Home Owner Ecosystem that enhances the lives of homeowners. This collaboration combines the strengths of TTB and Global House to deliver benefits and advantages to customers of both parties while increasing purchasing power for Global House customers through valuable offers based on customer behavior analysis, which will help build brand loyalty for both Global House and TTB.

Additionally, customers can access comprehensive financial solutions at the ttb Financial Center for Global House at six major branches and Pop Up Stores at other Global House locations nationwide, providing financial consulting and services including home loans, car loans, and personal loans for customers visiting Global House. Soon, homeowners will enjoy increased convenience through the My Home feature in the ttb touch app, which simplifies managing all home-related matters with just a touch.

Mr. Witoon Suriyawanakul, CEO of Siam Global House Public Company Limited, revealed that the company is committed to developing its organizational capabilities while driving sustainable business growth, aiming to become a central hub for the sale of construction materials and home decor, focusing on meeting customer needs to create a positive experience. The collaboration with TTB to launch the ttb Global House credit and cash withdrawal cards is a fusion of the strengths of both organizations to provide financial solutions that create the best shopping experience for home-related purchases.

In addition to the value from the financial solutions that TTB has specially prepared for cardholders, there are many other benefits and privileges that cardholders will receive from Global House, including special discounts, promotional benefits, or installment payment options, which also apply to online purchases, enhancing customer value. Importantly, customers purchasing construction materials will also earn reward points.

“This collaboration will create valuable benefits for Global House customers. In addition to receiving special discounts when purchasing products or using services at Global House, they will also have easier access to financial services and better financial planning,” Mr. Witoon added.

Global House is a one-stop shopping home center for construction materials and home decor, starting its business in Roi Et province and expanding branches across Thailand, with a total of 80 branches covering all 77 provinces. It also offers over 50 services for craftsmen and installation work, known as CHANG-D (Good Craftsman), guaranteeing the quality of craftsmanship with certification from CHANG-D. Therefore, customers can purchase construction materials and decor while also utilizing comprehensive craftsmanship and installation services in one place.

Mr. Thakorn Piyapan, Senior Manager and Acting Chief Executive Officer of Personal Banking at TMBThanachart, stated that TTB aims to become a Top 4 leader in the credit card and personal loan market within three years. One of the strategies is to strengthen its partnership with Siam Global House, a leading retailer of construction materials and home decor in Thailand. Based on past consumer behavior, spending through cards in the construction and home decor category has been continuously growing, and the benefits of the ttb Global House card will further meet the needs and create value for this customer segment while also providing Global House customers with easier access to financial services. TTB aims to have 40,000 credit card applications for the ttb Global House card and 20,000 cash withdrawal cards by the end of this year, with total spending through the cards expected to exceed 2 billion baht.
