Is this a good deal?

I wouldn’t call this a good deal to rush and take advantage of, for one simple reason: There are no good DBS/POSB credit cards for overseas spending in the first place, due to poor miles/cashback earn rates and a hefty 3.25% foreign transaction fee.

Related: Best Credit Cards for Overseas Spending

Sure, the POSB Everyday Card is good for those with very specific use cases, as it rewards 10% cash rebate on Malaysian Ringgit spend, but that’s only up to S$200 per month, and you’d need to spend S$600 more on other categories to qualify. There’s also the DBS Live Fresh Card with challenging conditions to receive the advertised cashback benefit.

Also, the DBS Visa Debit Card offers 2% cashback on overseas spending and zero foreign transaction fee on 11 foreign currencies for those with a DBS My Account, but comes with a ~1% FX spread (worse exchange rates vs cards like YouTrip).

In my opinion, this is a good promo only for those who are targeted with a S$1,000 spend goal.

I’ve not been spending much on DBS or POSB cards in the past couple of months, and I am seeing a S$2,000 spend goal in my account. So, a S$100 reward on that amount translates to a 5% cashback at best. You may also be targeted with a higher spend goal of S$5,000, which would of course lower the value proposition even more.
