Nubank launches LATAM Pass mode on Ultravioleta card in Brazil
Nubank introduced a new “LATAM Pass” mode for holders of its Ultravioleta credit card. When activated through the app, points earned on the card are automatically transferred to the LATAM Airlines loyalty program in weekly cycles, receiving a permanent 10 % mileage bonus and earning Qualifying Points that count toward elite status. The card’s standard earning rate of 2.2 points per US $ spent (up to 9 points on airline bookings) rises to roughly 2.42 LATAM miles per dollar after the bonus.
In parallel, Itaú offers a LATAM Pass Mastercard Black promotion that grants up to 70 000 bonus miles to new customers who meet spending thresholds of R$30 000 or R$60 000 on the first three statements. Both offers aim to attract frequent‑travellers seeking to maximise mileage accumulation.
The features are part of a broader push by Brazilian banks to enhance credit‑card rewards tied to airline loyalty programs.
