You can also check out UOB Preferred Platinum Visa as an option which can earn you 4 miles per dollar with S$1,110 cap and no minimum spend.

Conclusion:

From now until 31st Dec 2024, I would choose HSBC Live+ for a sweet 8% cashback with a lower minimum spend required of S$600. You can spend up to S$3,125 in a quarter to earn a maximum cashback of S$250 on that one category alone. It does not place a cashback cap on the category. After 31st Dec 2024, my vote goes to Citi Cashback Card because of its 6% cashback rate and a non restrictive list of where you can dine! If you opt for a pretty straightforward credit card for dining, and wanted to earn miles, Citi Rewards + Amaze could be a great option as it offers a decent earn rate of 4 miles per dollar in all online spend. UOB Lady’s card may be a hit or miss if the restaurant’s MCC does not fall within their specific MCCs.

💳 Credit cards change their T&Cs every so often and it is difficult to stay updated. That’s why I created a Telegram Broadcast where you can receive timely bite-sized updates to get the most out of your spending.

    The Wise Card is known for offering some of the best foreign exchange rates in Singapore—often beating banks and even Visa/Mastercard rates. But its advantage shrinks once you factor in Wise’s conversion fee, which isn’t included in the displayed FX rate. With no cashback or rewards, the card is best used for money transfers rather than day-to-day spending.

    Key points:

    • Excellent FX rates

    • Conversion fee applies (not always shown in quoted rate)

    • No rewards, cashback, or miles

    • Great for overseas transfers or paying freelancers

    • Cashback/miles cards usually give better value for shopping or travel

    • Supports 50+ currencies with strong in-app controls

        DBS Woman’s World Card

        This card doesn’t offer any sign-up promotions. To make the most of your sign-up rewards, consider applying for the DBS Altitude card first. This is because you can combine points from both DBS cards, and the DBS Altitude card also includes two complimentary airport lounge passes.

        DBS Altitude Card

        Apply Here - Visa
        Apply Here - AMEX

        Earn 1.3 miles per dollar on local spend and 2.2 miles per dollar on foreign currency spend

        Maybank XL Rewards/Cashback Card

        1. S$60 Cashback Bonus
        Apply for a new Maybank XL Cashback Card or Maybank XL Rewards Card and get S$60 cashback when you make just one transaction (limited to first 2,000 eligible cardmembers), for the subsequent customers, you’ll get S$10 cashback. The cashback will be credited automatically to your card account.
        ⚠️ Maybank does not provide visibility on whether you’re within this cap.

        2. Complimentary Etiqa Travel Insurance

        How to Maximise Your Rewards

        The XL card’s welcome gift is only S$10 cashback. If you’re new to Maybank and want better sign-up rewards, consider this strategy:

        • If you planned to get the XL Cashback Card, apply for the Maybank Family & Friends Card instead (also a cashback card).

        • If you planned to get the XL Rewards Card, apply for the Maybank World Mastercard instead (a miles card).

        As a new-to-bank customer, applying for another Maybank credit card first could unlock bigger gifts, such as a Samsonite Interlace Spinner 67/24 luggage (worth S$570) when you spend a minimum of S$1,300 in the first two months.

        On top of that, the Maybank World Mastercard also makes your miles non-expiring—so you’re building a stronger rewards foundation right from the start.

          Step 2: Google Form
