Why I Like It

  • Competitive reward value (up to S$799)
  • Reasonable spending requirement (S$500 within 30 days)
  • The widest range of eligible cards — miles, cashback and shopping all covered

How To Choose

  • Rewards — 4 mpd on online shopping and department stores (plus online groceries, food delivery and ride-hailing), capped at S$1,000 of spend a month, with no minimum spend. The standout for online spenders.
  • PremierMiles — 1.2 mpd local and 2.2 mpd overseas, no cap, no minimum, plus 2 free airport lounge access yearly. The simple flat-rate miles card for travellers.
  • Cash Back — 8% on petrol and ride-hailing, 6% on dining and groceries, but needs S$800 a month in spend (cap S$80). For households with large dining and grocery spend.
  • Cash Back+ — a flat 1.6% unlimited with no minimum and no cap. The effortless option if you don’t want categories.
  • SMRT — 5% on groceries, online shopping, transport and rides, unlocked at just S$500 a month with no monthly cap (only an annual one). Good for lower spenders.
  • Prestige — 1.3 mpd local and 2.0 mpd overseas, but the real draw is the 4th Night Free on hotel stays. The annual fee is S$651.82 and generally not waivable, so it only makes sense for frequent hotel bookers.

Bottom Line

For the best overall sign-up offer, HSBC continues to lead the pack, thanks to its generous rewards and a longer spending window that runs until the end of the following month.

If you prefer an offer that’s easier to qualify for, OCBC is a standout choice with its low S$400 minimum spend and a strong lineup of premium gifts.

Meanwhile, Citi and DBS are also compelling options, combining attractive welcome rewards with relatively achievable spending requirements.

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