What if you spend more than S$300?
With this promo, YouTrip is essentially awarding S$15 cashback to the first 15,000 cardholders who spend at least S$300 within the promo period.
Like the DBS yuu card, it may not be easy to accumulate exactly S$300 in spending. But it’s good to know that even if you exceed the amount by $50 or $200, you’ll still be well on the winning side, vs what other cards offer (but please use a better card once you’re sure that you’ve crossed the S$300 mark 😂).
Exact Spending | Cashback Percentage |
---|---|
S$300 | 5% |
S$350 | 4.29% |
S$400 | 3.75% |
S$450 | 3.33% |
S$500 | 3% |
Is this better than using Miles cards?
With 5% cashback and zero FX fees, there is no doubt that this is better than any Miles cards, for your first S$300 of foreign currency spending this month.
As most Miles credit cards charge over 3% in FX fees, you can save over 8% on foreign currency spending by participating in this promo (3% fee + 5% cashback).
In simpler terms, by ignoring 8% savings to use a card that offers 4 miles per dollar, you are actually “paying” about 2 cents (SGD) per mile in opportunity cost. At this rate, you might as well buy miles directly (and earn even more miles and cashback by using the right cards).
As an additional reminder, this offer is only valid for the first 15,000 enrolled cardholders who accumulate at least S$300 in spending. While this is a generous cap, I’d try to reach the goal in the next week or two, to be on the safe side.
