Which credit card can I apply for as I am on my first job with 6 months savings secured but 1.8k salary? (I know that most credit card require at least 2.5k/month salary to apply)?

I know about the secured credit card but I'm not willing to put in 10k as those are my emergency savings

Hello Anon,

Here are three credit cards you can apply for based on your salary:

https://seedly.sg/reviews/credit-cards/cimb-aws...

Do check out the product pages for more information as well as our real user reviews for feedback on the card.

At a glance, the CIMB AWSM card is the best as it has 1% cashback for:

1% Cashback on Dining
1% Cashback on Entertainment
1% Cashback on Online shopping
1% Cashback on all things Telco

and no cashback cap or minimum spend.

Do use your card wisely by paying your credit card bills on time as the interest (~25%) is a real killer.

All the best :)

Hi there. I'm afraid you won't be eligible for mainstream credit cards based on your current salary....

I'm new to Singapore. How long should I wait before applying for a credit card? I've seen few banks are asking for 3 months salary slip. Do I really need to wait for 3 months applying for my first credit card?

How can I efficiently pay of my credit card debts? I’m a fresh grad, 6 months into my first job, average pay. And I’ve already accumulated $3k worth of debts that I can’t pay. Should I cancel my credit card? ?

Does DBS multiplier come with a debit card or do I have to apply separately? Also, can I apply for a DBS credit card if I am on 6 month contract job?

Working for a year and opened 360 for salary credit. Should I apply for a credit card or change saving account? Currently, $200 monthly spending. I seldom online shopping. It's difficult to reach the min spending for CC to earn cashback. Any advise?

Monthly Income: $3.1k from FT job, $600-$1.2k from PT job. Saves about $1.5-$1.8k a month. Personal Goal: save $100k by 29 yrs old. What should i do to speed up the process to reach my goal?
