Sponsored: A new Aura Pass upgrade unlocks 30% savings across fashion, beauty and dining brands
If you’re a regular at Starbucks, love a bit of retail therapy at H&M, or can’t resist a Shake Shack burger, there’s a new loyalty upgrade worth knowing about.
Alshaya Group has launched Aura Pass, a UAE-exclusive upgrade to its Aura loyalty programme, offering members 30% savings across more than 30 participating brands for the rest of 2026.
Available through the existing Aura app, the new pass costs a one-time fee of Dhs199 and unlocks savings across a range of fashion, beauty, dining and lifestyle brands.
Participating brands include Starbucks, H&M, Foot Locker, Shake Shack, Chipotle, Victoria’s Secret, Ulta Beauty and Bath & Body Works, while Primark customers can enjoy double Aura points on purchases.
How Aura Pass works
Registration for Aura Pass is open for a limited period from June 17 to July 5, 2026, with benefits available until December 31, 2026.
According to Alshaya Group, the initiative has been created exclusively for UAE-based Aura members, bringing together some of the group’s most popular brands under one membership upgrade. Once activated, discounts and rewards are applied through the existing Aura app.
Joining is simple. Existing Aura members can open the app, upgrade to Aura Pass during the registration period, pay the one-off fee and begin using their benefits immediately across participating brands.
More UAE-focused initiatives are coming
The launch also marks the first in a series of UAE-focused initiatives planned by Alshaya Group, with more community activations, partnerships and customer experiences expected to follow.
Since launching in 2022, Aura has grown to more than eight million members across the region and was recently recognised for the third consecutive year at the International Loyalty Awards, where it won Best International Loyalty Programme in the Middle East.
