The Best Credit Cards of 2020 Review: Is UOB YOLO Card good?

Pros

• Generous cashback of up to 8% for categories of Dining, Grab and Entertainment; great for individuals who enjoy these activities
• There is also a 3-5% cashback on Online Spend which is ideal for those who prefer online shopping
• An ideal starter credit card for the out-going working adult, with little to no financial commitments. UOB YOLO offers rewards in activities that they frequent like dining out, entertainment, and online shopping. The relatively manageable minimum income requirement also makes UOB YOLO more accessible to those who've just started their jobs.

Cons

• As shown in the table above, there are distinctions between weekday and weekend cashback rates; hence, might be additional work to keep track of.
• Not for the thriftier spenders as there is a minimum spend requirement of S$600 to qualify for the attractive cashback rates
• Not for those looking to get rewards on essentials like Groceries, or Public Transport
• Low S$60 cashback cap per statement month. Assuming that the UOB YOLO cardholder leads a less penny-pinching lifestyle, one might easily hit this cap and the money-back might not be much in the grand scheme of his/her monthly spendings.
