For those who are not in the loop, Seedly and SingSaver recently launched their new #ownthefuture campaign that is offering Bitcoin as a sign-up bonus!

Yeah it’s crazy, Bitcoin is gaining more and more traction and this campaign will boost mainstream adoption of crypto even further. I am happy to see that crypto is getting more and more recognised, and it won't be long before more people realise the benefits and efficiency crypto brings to humanity.

It is available to both new and existing customers as well.

Bitcoin as Reward? The FIRST of its kind

Typically, credit card sign-up gifts range from gift vouchers, Apple AirPods, cash, or other merchandise, but in this case, it is none of these. This is the first time we are seeing Credit Card rewards giving out Bitcoins, which is the largest crypto by Market Cap and saw a meteoric rise from less than $20,000 USD last year to nearly $50,000 USD right now. (at the point of writing)

This is a sign of mainstream adoption and I am heartened to see that the campaign bonus is Bitcoin which can bring in tons of new crypto holders and allow them to understand and get educated about the new asset class.

In this campaign, SingSaver partnered with American Express to offer Singaporeans with a sign-up bonus of $365 SGD in Bitcoin, which is eligible if you are an existing holder too, so not just the new cardholders benefit.

Campaign Period

The campaign will run from 13 September to 10 October 2021, and to be specific, new AMEX customers will receive $265 SGD worth of Bitcoin while existing AMEX customers will receive $50 SGD worth of Bitcoin when they sign up for any eligible AMEX cards listed below.

Update: The campaign just got extended from 7th November!!**

The 5 Eligible Credit Cards which are part of the campaign

Personally, I think this is attractive because as a crypto user myself, I am more interested to get Bitcoin compared to receiving cash or gift vouchers or other conditional rewards, reason being, Bitcoin is a perfectly scarce asset that will appreciate over time, compared to cash which devalues over time due to money printing and other inflationary mechanics.

You will need to build your own convictions though, but rewards wise, I am definitely keen on it.

First 2000 applicants gets rewarded with more Bitcoin

The first 2000 successful applicants will also receive an additional reward of up to $100 SGD worth of Bitcoin on top of the existing reward, so in essence, new AMEX card holders get $365 SGD worth of Bitcoin for free.

As for existing AMEX card holders, being in the first 2000 applicants will grant you an extra $50 SGD in Bitcoin, bringing the total reward to be $100 SGD in Bitcoin.

Not too shabby at all.

Do note that each successful applicant is only entitled to a maximum of one reward, so even if you signed up for 2, 3 or 4 cards, you are only entitled to just one reward. (eg. $365 in BTC for new customers or $100 in BTC for existing customers in the first 2000.)

How do you know if you are a new or existing customer?

New Customers__ do not hold any AMEX cards now or in the past 12 months

Existing customers are those who__ hold an AMEX card right now or cancelled one in the past 12 months, and you also must not have applied for the same credit card within the last 12 months.

Reward Eligibility

In order for you to be able to retrieve your Bitcoin reward, you need to sign up** **and receive approval latest by 15 November 2021, and you will not be able to claim other offers listed for AMEX for the relevant AMEX Credit card you applied for.

Eligible Card Sign-Ups and Key Features

As you can see above, depending on your personal preference and needs, you can sign up for a Credit Card which best suit your spending style, and what kind of perks you are looking for.

Personally, the** [AMEX True Cashback** ](https://pixel.ekosconnect.com/px?a=358&c=674&ev=affclk&k=5b049c33c31a93af)looks most viable for myself, as I could care less with the KrisFlyer points, but to each his/her own right?

If you need to see the details of each card, you can head over here to view them.

Do note that in order to qualify for the Bitcoin rewards, you need to meet the minimum spending requirements:

For AMEX True Cashback/KrisFlyer/CapitaCard, you need to spend a minimum of $500 within 30 days of card approval.

As for AMEX KrisFlyer Ascend and Platinium Credit Cards, there will be no minimum spending requirements, but you must pay the first year fee of $337.50 for KrisFlyer Ascend Card and $321 for the Platinum Credit Card.

*There is also a list of excluded spending categories here , so do take note that there are some which does not qualify as spending. Hospital/donations or other spendings not listed under the catergories will qualify as eligible spending.
