What can I expect from the Maybank DUO Platinum MasterCard membership?
Can anyone become a DUO Member even a new Maybank DUO Platinum MasterCard user?

Maybank DUO Platinum Mastercard
HSBC Personal Loan
For me nothing beats the 5% year-round cash rebates on dining, groceries, petrol and transport (that is taxis, ride hailing, trains and buses inclusive), locally and overseas when you spend minimum S$600 per month. And the cash rebate is capped at S$150 per month. So if you don’t drive, not to worry as you can enjoy 5% cash rebate for your transportation needs, be it a taxi ride, a booking made via ride hailing apps, or trains/buses.
HSBC Premier MasterCard / HSBC Bank Singapore
If you are like me an HSBC Premier client and also a frequent traveller that can maximize the number of priority pass visits, limo and meet-and-assist services as well as your supplementary cardholders too, then this is the card for you. The reduced general mile earn rate is worth the trade-off for the unlimited priority pass memberships, as well as the high number of limo and meet-and-assist services that you can use.
HSBC VISA Infinite Credit Card / HSBC Bank Singapore
I fancy the OCBC 365 credit because it has cash rebate of $80, but only after you full fill their criteria. They require a minimum spending of $800 per month which in turn earns interest from different spending. This card suits me just fine being that I have broad spending habit and in the process it gives me $80 cash rebates every month. My only dislike is the rebate on the general spending which is 0.3%.
OCBC 365 Credit Card / Oversea-Chinese Banking Corporation
In my opinion, this card is one of the best cards in the market especially as there are no expiry date to miles earned and an amazing 2 VIP airport lounge access. I love the fact that the card can be used for major big ticket items and to clock mileage. Redemption can be done easily without hassle and customer service staff are very helpful
Citi PremierMiles Visa Card / Citibank Singapore
The Citi SMRT card is a pretty decent card for spending but they unfortunately exclude travel related online merchants. This to me is the downside of the card and may be a reason to get another card for travel websites.
Citi Prestige Card / Citibank Singapore
I like the idea that I can receive 40,000 Membership Rewards points when I get to successfully refer any of my friends to the card. Even more so as my friends can also receive 40,000 Membership Rewards points upon spend of S$5,000 in the first 3 months of their Card Membership. I think that is pretty much a win-win situation.
American Express Platinum Card / American Express International
No Name
As for expectations, with DUO you can earn DUO Points for purchases made within Tan Chong International. DUO Points can be used to redeem free car servicing vouchers, apartment stays, merchandise as well as car rental packages and chauffeur services. Beyond DUO Rewards, members can use DUO Privileges to cater to their lifestyle choices with discounted travel packages, shopping, and dining and entertainment deals. On top of this, members can expect priority to events as well as first-hand news about special promotions and finally yes, anyone can become a DUO Member even the new user. However, you will only start accumulating DUO Points if you spend within Tan Chong International (except for Tan Chong Credit & Singapore Automotive Industries).
