Credit Cards

Hello all, Looking for some recommendations on a suitable cashback Credit Card. I'm not really a big spender so I'm looking at one that doesn't require a minimum spend. ?

Here are the options I've narrowed down:
1) Amex True Cashback
2) SCB Unlimited
3) ICBC Global Travel
4) ICBC Zodiac

I'm leaning towards (4) due to its 1.6% cashback and 3-year annual fee waiver.

I don't do much overseas transactions and don't drive as well. I'm planning to use this card for my wife's upcoming gynae consultation and pregnancy delivery fees (not sure if this is considered a lumpsum transaction).

Appreciate any inputs!

Maybank FCB is also 1.6% cashback with no min. spend. I've been using it and so far, no issues?

Hmm overall recommend the first two! I've had issues with ICBC and their customer service is not something you want to put yourself through...

About the fee waiver, every card has that as long as you make the effort to call in and ask for a waiver. If you use the card 1-3 times a year at least, the waiver will be approved.

Btw best to apply online as mentioned by the rest! Singsaver has promotions and the banks themselves have promotions if you apply through Singpass I think. All the best!

(PS: If you are working and have a multiplier acc with DBS, frankly the Live Fresh Card is pretty decent for cashbacks! If you spend $80 on transport a month via Simplygo, you get back $4. If you happen to make online purchases, you get cashback too. It's not so much about having 1 card only, but maximizing the benefits you can get from various cards. Doesn't mean I advice getting many cards but 2-3 is alright~ I'm not working in DBS but I found their card convenient!)

Quite true for the 4 card between 1.5 to 1.6%, but pretty low these days with no string attached.
