- Updated 6d agoOne of the must have credit card if you are accumulating miles (Paywave/Contactless spending = 4 miles per dollar). Easily the most used card. Just beware of the monthly spending limit ($1,000), points are awarded in blocks of $5 and the merchants that do not award UNI$ (miles) but Smart$ (cashback).2 comments2Chan Zui Mao Mao

Haha. Yeah. I agree. Personally, I prefer this over DBS Woman's World. Paywave no dispute one. lolJefferson Soh07 Jun 2018
So little ppl use this card. I wonder why. This is the gem I feel. - Updated 6d agoOne of the rare cards that rewards 4miles per dollar when you -using paywave, -shop online. with almost no requirements and a rather high 1k monthly cap for the above bonus miles. combine this with uob privi miles - you will be on your way to many free trips round the world2 comments1Jefferson Soh

Thanks. It's indeed 1kWayne Lim26 May 2018
I believe the monthly cap for 4mpd is 1k, not 2k:) - Updated on 10 Jan 2019Found out about this recently. A good card if you want miles! Gives 4 miles per dollar spent if you use paywave (but only if you spend a minimum of $5)! Also gives 4 miles per dollar spent on popular sites such as fave and qoo10! Downside is, it took me 5 weeks to get the card. I applied for it, called them 2 weeks later when I didn't receive the card, and they said the card was likely lost in mail. They sent me another, and the same thing happened. Called them again, and this time I received it one week later. Took a total of 5 weeks to receive. Not sure if UOB or SingPost is at fault.0 comments1
- Updated on 30 May 2018I have been using this card for years together with UOB Preferred Platinum Amex card. This is good for small expenditure to accumulate UNI$. I especially like the 10 times UNI$ for spending online and VISA paywave. As there is a cap on UNI$ earned, I do not recommend this for high expenditure though. But as my spending is moderate, this card is good for me.0 comments0

Personally, I'll stick with Citi.. UOB's rewards structure is in blocks of S$5 spent. Whereas citi's as I recall is for every dollar. You'll also vomit blood getting fee waivers from UOB.

If i were you, i would get OCBC Titanium Rewards. At the moment, there is a partnership promotion that allows you to earn up to 11 miles per dollar. Take a look at this page which explains the calculation. http://milelion.com/2018/04/19/ocbc-titanium-rewards-offering-6-mpd-on-mileslife/ By the way, i don't use either of the cards above, i use Citi Rewards, Ascend Amex, Maybank Horizon and DBS World Woman Card to collect miles. One card is not enough to cater for my different needs.
