The Citi Dividend card is my perennial favourite - it may not always be the best, but its consistent, there is no min spend and the cash rebates are valid for a year
Hi Lizardo,
Seems like you can hit the minimum spending of UOB One card. How about OCBC 365 for food (3% to 6%), Esso (18.3%), groceries/online/telecom (3%)?
Jes,
UOB card minimum spending met. The rest goes into Citibank Dividend Card for the rebate. It has the same discount for Esso.
Looks I should explore OCBC 365 next. 8)
Serendib,
Citibank has indeed been a steady ship.
Oooh Nice post!
Just like to share the credit cards that my gf and I are using. She blogged about it here:
http://bfgfmoneyblog.com/bf-gf-credit-cards-best-credit-cards-in-singapore/
I will be sharing this informative page with her.
Thanks Lizardo!
BfGf,
By all means. Thanks for sharing as well.
Thanks for sharing this post, Lizardo. Compared to the Citibank Dividend card, the OCBC 365 credit card suits us better because (1) we seldom spend more than $50 each time on groceries; and (2) half of our spending is on dining out, which the OCBC 365 card offers a better rebate.
SS,
Guess we should optimise against our spending patterns to better capitalise on the benefits. If it works, it works. Glad you have an optimised credit card to manage spendings.
Lizardo, looks like the steady ship has decided to .. well not sink, but rather be rather unsteady. Min $888/mth required to qualify for rebate above 0.25%, rebates for petrol, dining and groceries are now 8%, but capped at $25 per category per mth - so if you spend about $300/mth on each category you're safe. Otherwise seems like OCBC 365 is the best rebate card around now...
Hi Serendib,
My credit expenses are high. So I think it still works for me.
But it gets increasingly confusing to manage and maximise the respective cards.
For UOB One card, it should be quarterly rebates of $50/$100/$300 for monthly spending of $500/$1000/$2000.

Thanks for highlighting on UOB One card.
