KrisFlyer UOB Card

Suitesmile rating:

---

✍️ Short summary
This card gives you an uncapped 3 mpd earn rate on Singapore Airlines, Scoot, KrisShop, Kris+ and Pelago.

Cardholders can also receive an uncapped 2.4 mpd earn rate (1.2 base + 1.2 bonus) on everyday spending categories like dining, online shopping, online food delivery, ride-hailing and public transport, as well as travel spending made on selected websites like airbnb.com, booking.com and expedia.com. To receive the 1.2 mpd bonus, cardholders have to spend at least S$1,000 on Singapore Airlines, Scoot, Pelago or KrisShop collectively in a card membership year.

All other transactions earn 1.2 mpd, including foreign currency spending which comes with 3.25% in fees (very poor!).

On top of that, cardholders can also get priority check-in and boarding, free standard seat selection and one-time booking flexibility waiver on Scoot bookings made through flyscoot.com/KrisFlyerUOB.

While this card makes all the right headlines, cardholders should know that bonus miles (1.2 mpd) are only credited within 2 months, after the end of the card membership year. This can be a dealbreaker for many who do not want to wait up to 14 months to receive the bonus miles! The delayed miles crediting can also force you into paying the annual fee (instead of cancelling the card), if a waiver is not granted.

Another obvious point to note is that the miles earned on this card can only be transferred to KrisFlyer, albeit with no transfer fee.

Flexibility is very important in the Miles Game and unfortunately, this card offers very little of that. I recommend maximizing the limits of other 4 mpd cards first, before using this one.

Suitesmile rating:

✍️ Short summary
This card gives you a strong earn rate of 36 yuu points per dollar when spending between S$800 and S$822.86 at participating yuu merchants in a calendar month. To receive the bonus yuu points, cardholders are also required to spend at a minimum of 4 participating yuu merchants every calendar month.

What are yuu points worth?
36 yuu points can be redeemed for an effective earn rate of 18% cash rebate or 10 miles per dollar.

What if you spend more than S$822.86 at participating yuu merchants?
Once you’ve accumulated more than the 28,800 monthly cap on bonus yuu points, you’ll continue to earn just 1 yuu point per dollar (0.5% cash rebate).

Should you redeem yuu points for KrisFlyer miles?
By ignoring the opportunity to receive 18% rebate, you’d be “paying” about 1.8 cents per KrisFlyer mile in opportunity cost; and that’s pricey.

Tip: Redeem yuu points for excluded Giant or Cold Storage items like magazines, infant milk formula, sushi or tobacco products to lower/eliminate your opportunity cost.

If you’re looking to top-up small amounts of KrisFlyer miles for an award redemption, this is a great way to do so, as conversions are free and instantaneous.

• Cold Storage
• Gojek
• 7-Eleven

Suitesmile rating:

✍️ Short summary
This card can be highly rewarding, but it requires a lot of tracking work on your part and can be very time-consuming.

Earn up to 3.33% cashback on almost everything, including online shopping, in-person shopping, dining, groceries, ride-hailing, food delivery, utilities and even phone/internet bills.

Why “up to” 3.33%? Upon meeting certain conditions, cardholders get a fixed cashback amount of S$60, S$100 or S$200 at the end of each quarter.

How to receive up to 3.33% cashback:

• MANDATORY: Make at least 10 transactions per statement month
• Get S$60 cashback when you spend at least S$600 per month, for 3 consecutive statement months in a qualifying quarter
• Get S$100 cashback when you spend at least S$1,000 per month, for 3 consecutive statement months in a qualifying quarter
• Get S$200 cashback when you spend at least S$2,000 per month, for 3 consecutive statement months in a qualifying quarter

In other words, you will only receive exactly 3.33% cashback when you spend exactly S$600, S$1,000 or S$2,000 for 3 consecutive months in a qualifying quarter. For example, a cardholder who spends S$1,800/month in that same period, would fall under the S$1,000 band and be rewarded with just S$100 cashback (equivalent to 1.85%).

Cardholders who meet the conditions for up to 3.33% cashback described above can earn up to 6.67% additional cashback (total up to 10% cashback) at selected merchants like Grab, Shopee, Giant, Cold Storage and SimplyGo. This additional cashback is capped at S$120 per statement month.

GXS Credit Card

Suitesmile rating:

✍️ Short summary
GXS Credit Card gives you uncapped 1.75% cashback on almost everything locally, 3-10% back (in GrabCoins) on local Grab spending, 10% back on overseas Grab spending and no foreign transaction fees on overseas or foreign currency spending.

A minimum spending of S$500 per statement month on local, non-Grab, non-Singtel transactions is required to earn the 1.75% base cashback locally. Singtel bills earn 1.75% cashback with no minimum spending and no cap.

Rewards on local Grab spending are tiered, may require minimum spending and are credited instantly as GrabCoins.

Here’s how it works:

Grab spend	Earn rate	Min. spend
First S$500	3%	None
Next S$500	5%	S$500 non-Grab
Above S$1,000	10%

For example, with S$1,500 worth of local Grab spending in a statement month, you’d earn the following (assuming you also accumulated S$500 non-Grab spending):

• First S$500: ~S$15 GrabCoins (3%)
• S$500-S$1,000: ~S$25 GrabCoins (5%)
• S$1,000-S$1,500: ~S$50 GrabCoins (10%)

That’s ~S$90 worth of GrabCoins on S$1,500 local Grab spending, for an effective earn rate of just 6%. As the top-end 10% earn rate is uncapped, your effective earn rate improves the more you spend on Grab locally.

Overseas Grab transactions, on the other hand, earn a clean, uncapped 10% with no minimum spending. As there is no FX fee on this card, this is a superb card benefit.

Note: GrabCoins are Grab loyalty points, not cash. You can only use them in the Grab app, where 500 GrabCoins offset about S$1 of your Grab spending.
