Earn up to 13 Miles Per Dollar on Pelago through Kris+ (Plus, extra hacks!)

From November 1st to December 31st, 2024, Pelago bookings made through the Kris+ app will earn 9 miles per dollar, on top of any credit card rewards. This means you can potentially earn up to 13 miles per dollar spent on Pelago bookings. They have access to 200,000 activities and attractions on Pelago.

Why You Should Use Kris+ app?

The 9 miles per dollar earn rate on Pelago through Kris+ is uncapped. If you go directly via Pelago, there is a cap of 5,000 miles per booking.

To take advantage of this offer, simply download the Kris+ app and look for the Pelago icon.

Search for your desired activity, book and pay via the Kris+ app with Apple or Google Pay. You will want to use a Mastercard, be it credit or debit card (more on that on “Stackable with Mastercard promotions” section)

After you have booked, this is what it will look like in your Kris+ transaction history with the 9 miles per dollar earned. Remember to click “Transfer to Krisflyer” within 21 days from transaction date.

New to Kris+? Don’t worry, I got you!

Kris+ is a lifestyle rewards app by Singapore Airlines that allows you to earn and redeem KrisFlyer miles at various participating merchants. From electronics purchases at Harvey Norman to taxi rides and restaurant reservations through Chope, and now even Pelago, Kris+ is designed to supercharge your miles.

How does it work?

  1. Earn Miles: Make purchases at participating merchants and earn KrisPay miles on your spending or do weekly check-ins on the app.
  2. Transfer & Redeem Miles: Seamlessly transfer your earned Krispay miles to your KrisFlyer account to redeem for flights with no fee.
  3. Redeem Rewards: Redeem other rewards or vouchers with your Krispay miles.

Don’t have Kris+? Download Kris+ app today and use code Y066895 to receive 750 Krispay miles (worth S$5).

Here are the Best Credit Cards for Kris+ for Pelago:

DBS Women’s World Mastercard

It gives you a 4 miles per dollar earn rate as it is considered an online payment via Apple or Google Pay in-app payment. There is a spending cap of S$1,500 per calendar month that you will need to take note of. You can check out the full review here. There are no sign up promotions ever for this card because DBS knows it’s a winner. 

Extra DBS Hack: I would check the DBS Paylah! app to stack extra promotions. For instance, there is a S$100 cashback promotion happening right now when you shop, dine or travel with DBS/POSB credit cards.

DBS Womans World Card

DBS Woman's World Card

Earn 4 miles per dollar on online spend

UOB Lady’s Credit Card

It gives you a 4 miles per dollar earn rate if you chose Travel Category as one of your categories for that quarter. There is a spending cap of S$1,000 (for the Classic card) and S$2,000 per calendar month (for Solitaire card and above). You can check out the full review here.

UOB Ladys Card

UOB Lady's Card

Earn 4 miles per dollar on 1 or 2 chosen categories


UOB Krisflyer Credit Card

It gives you an unlimited 3 miles per dollar earn rate with the condition that you spend a minimum of S$800 on Singapore Airlines, Scoot or KrisShop within the year. You can check out the full review here.

UOB Krisflyer Card

UOB Krisflyer Card

Earn uncapped 3 miles per dollar on SIA group spend and 2.4 miles per dollar on dining, online shopping, transport & select travel with min. S$1,000 SIA spend/year.

Stackable with Mastercard Promotions:

Kris+ always has these Mastercard level Promotions monthly. Therefore you can “Join the Challenge” and stack them up with the Pelago 9 miles per dollar booking + 4 miles per dollar credit cards.

So if you book two Pelago deals worth S$50, you would be able to receive S$10 + S$12 in the form of Krispay miles credited to your Kris+ app instantly. That’s 1500 + 1800 miles in total (as seen below). Even though these miles can’t be transferred out of Kris+ to your Krisflyer account, you can use the Krispay miles to offset the cost of your purchases at their participating merchants like a coffee at Huggs coffee, or a purchase at iStudio or Harvey Norman.

Best Price Guaranteed:

If you found an activity that is cheaper than your booking on Pelago, you can easily submit a request to get them to refund you the difference via a promo code.

Final Thoughts:

So in conclusion, overall, you can now receive 13 miles per dollar for your attraction and tour bookings with Pelago through Kris+ and even stack bank level promotions and Mastercard promotions on top of it. Because of the compelling proposition, I booked two tours for my Beijing trip with DBS Women’s World Mastercard.
