About
The Diners Club International Company
The
Diners Club Card was the first Charge Card ever. In 1950, a businessman
named Frank McNamara entertained a group of dinner guests in a New
York restaurant, only to discover that he had forgotten his wallet.
Fortunately, the restaurant proprietor knew him and let him leave
his business card as an IOU. This then inspired McNamara to devise
a card to prove the holder's identity and their ability to pay.
He launched the Diners Club Card that very same year and the initial
membership was 200 with the card being accepted in 27 restaurants.
Nowadays, there are about 8 million Diners Club Cardholders in over
200 countries, and the card is accepted in 6 million establishments
worldwide
As well
as the standard Card features, no other Charge Card offers you such
an wide range of additional services for its Cardholders, from Travellercare
Insurance to Executive Golf Club membership . You will find all
of these explained in the Diners Card area of the site. Take your
time and have a look at the range of options that Diners Club Cardholders
