I just graduated from college and plan to spend most of one year travelling the world before I settle down to a career path. What credit card would you recommend for me with good benefits and air miles?
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
With this card the outstanding highlight will probably be that you can earn one Rewards point for every S$1 charged to your card. In addition, you can also enjoy the exclusive privilege to redeem more rewards with fewer points on selected rewards items. Plus the application process for this card was not stressful as is the case with other cards.
HSBC Premier MasterCard / HSBC Bank Singapore
The HSBC Premier MasterCard offers a quick, convenient and fuss-free payment with your contactless-enabled HSBC Premier MasterCard credit card. You can with this feature simply tap and go in front of a secured reader at participating merchants to make payments but be aware that this is subject to applicable limits on the contactless payment amount.
HSBC Premier MasterCard / HSBC Bank Singapore
If you ever are tired of worrying about your fare card balance at the gantries just like I used to do then this card is for you too. You can now beat the hustle and bustle of daily commute as you can now tap and go on buses and trains. This without a doubt makes your daily commute smoother and helps to ease and take away those worries behind.
HSBC Premier MasterCard / HSBC Bank Singapore
With the Apple Pay feature of the HSBC Premier MasterCard making payments in stores, in apps and on the web with your iPhone, Apple Watch, iPad and Mac is now very easy with just a touch on it, secure and private as well. A unique transaction code is used for each purchase so your card details are never shared with any merchant or saved on your device
HSBC Premier MasterCard / HSBC Bank Singapore
I'm looking for an unlimited mobile data plan that is cheap and reliable. I already have one which offers me Unlimited data and unlimited call and SMS but I'm currently on a budget and I don;t really call or send SMS so I'm looking for a low priced but reliable unlimited mobile data plan with adequate speed.
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
This card offers a few thrills if you are one for accumulating miles as you can earn 1.3 KrisFlyer miles for every S$1 equivalent in foreign currency spent overseas on eligible purchases up to S$3,800 each month. On such purchases above S$3,800 each month, you can earn 2 KrisFlyer miles. Furthermore the card allows earnings of 1.3 KrisFlyer miles for every S$1 spent locally in Singapore dollars on eligible purchases up to S$3,800 each month. On such purchases above S$3,800 each month, earnings are 1.4 KrisFlyer miles. Highly recommended for those who seek to accumulate miles.
American Express Singapore Airlines PPS Club Credit Card / American Express International
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 am quite very disappointed with this card as I have never received the vouchers for all the points I have accumulated so far. I have on several occasions made complaints via the phone and even in person, but all to no avail. I would not recommend this card to anyone for this reason, i have to say unfortunately.
Citi Rewards Card / Citibank Singapore
Very impressed by the complimentary night stay I got after I made bookings for a five nights stay at a resort I spent my birthday at in Malaysia. Even more pleasing was the complimentary golf games at a high quality golf courses in Malaysia. As a matter of fact, I had as much as six complementary golf games.
Citi Cash Back Visa Card / Citibank Singapore
I love that I can enjoy Interest rates starting from 5.80% p.a. (EIR 11.38% p.a.) on their 12-month instalment plan which allows for fixed monthly repayments.The monthly repayment for your Cash-on-Instalments is fixed, allowing you to manage your finances with ease of mind. That works perfect for me as it helps me to be more organized and I give them thumbs up.

I like the HSBC Premier Mastercard Credit Card for its good mile-buying opportunity for 40,000 miles at $488 for HSBC Premier Clients, also the unlimited priority pass for both the principal and supplementary cardholders makes this card worth the fee provided there are supplementary cardholders to share the benefits with and that it will be heavily utilized. Furthermore, the departure airport limo service is a plus point and the meet-and-assist can be helpful at overly crowded airports without Fast-Track/ABTC/Diplomatic lines. Bottom Line, if you are both a HSBC Premier client and a frequent traveller that can maximize the number of priority pass visits, limo and meet-and-assist services, and your supplementary cardholders are too, then this is the card for you( you could consider referring your friends). 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.
