Are there online advantages that come with operating the Amex Platinum Card?

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.

You receive S$800 travel credits annually (S$400 Air Travel Credit + S$400 Lodging Credit) by booking through The Platinum Concierge. You also can get and enjoy complimentary access for you, a supplementary cardholder and two guests to 1,200 Lounges such as The Centurion Lounge, Priority Pass, and International American Express Lounges. Most importantly, all Membership Rewards points never expire

I had a nice experience taking up the opportunity to earn savings with Love Dining at a Restaurant with 35% off double dating with my girlfriend and my best friend with his girlfriend. So go ahead and enjoy savings at artfully curated restaurants and Singapore's finest hotels with Love Dining. Also with Love Dining at Hotels, you receive a complimentary The Far Card Classic Membership. This card is eligible for use with Apple Pay, Google Pay, Samsung Pay.

Airport lounge access and up to $200 in Uber credits each year with up to a $200 annual airline-fee credit and up to $100 in annual shopping credits, elite status at Marriott and Hilton hotels, special perks at other hotels and resorts. They even offer access to exclusive events making this cards benefits very catchy.

With the Amex's loyalty program I love that they can be exchanged for statement credits or cash back, used to book travel through Amex's travel website, or transferred to any of 19 airline and three hotel transfer partners. Transferable points to me are among the most valuable features. The card earns a whopping 5x points on airfare purchased directly through the airline, as well as flights and hotels reserved through Amex Travel. It earns one point for every dollar spent elsewhere.

The Platinum Card comes with a welcome offer of 60,000 Membership Rewards points after you must have spent $5,000 on purchases in the first three months after opening your account. Based on valuations, those points are worth about $1,200 which alone makes up for two years of the annual fee.

I have held this card for quite a long time and one thing I like about the card is the fact that it is used for CapitaLand malls and they are almost everywhere. So I enjoy dining taking advantage of the 10x rewards merchants to accumulate the points faster. Imagine getting close to 6.5% rebates on dining. Not to forget their sign up bonus of $60 rebates in vouchers when you spend $1,500. That's a 4% rebate excluding the points you will earn which will convert into vouchers too.

I would recommend the card for use by people who frequently purchase clothing and electronics and also in particular from known on online merchants like AliExpress, Amazon, Lazada, Shopee and Taobao.You get 10X points when you shop at retails for babies and children's wear, clothes, bags and shoes, department stores, electronics and gadgets; which cover almost all retails. Also the OCBC Reward is a $10 rebate for 3600 points which I think is fare.

So it is really convenient that I can get and use my card instantly when I apply via MyInfo. And the cards instant digital card that can be used for mobile wallets, online and mobile app purchases. Now aside from the same day physical credit card issuance for online applications you also get S$50 cash rebate upon approval with no minimum spend required. However that is only for new OCBC Credit Card applications.

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.

A 5% cash rebate on fuel purchases and a 16% instant discount is a great deal for me I must say, the HSBC VISA Platinum Credit Card indeed makes driving more fun for me as i always look forward to the 16% instant discount plus 5% cash rebate on all fuel spend at Caltex and Shell stations

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%.
