something hilarious. I tried applying for this and I got it lol, and I am a male...

Apparently males can hold womans mastercard too. I applied for the world mastercard.

Btw the 10x rewards for online purchases only apply to retail purchases, and not all online buys, so it likely refers to those clothing bags and shoes, like the citibank rewards card.

Anyone else want to confirm with them? I am kinda lazy

Should be like the Singpost Visa Plat... applies to all retailers that have a merchant code classifying them as online retailers. Best to check with the bank.

I am male and i applied successfully too.

Most likely only use for online too. I assume any online transaction will get 10 x points .

The word "retail" is loosely used when referring to any transaction using Credit card from POS , so i believe it applies to any online transaction from any merchant website.

Those spa and fitness package can give to gf to use ma

I applied for it as well. And got it ... What I'm really interested, is the SPG Gold for 1 night only!

that is not a promo exclusive to this card.

It is actually an SPG promo where if you register for this promo and charge at least one night of hotel stay in their participating hotels (mostly hotels from Apac) to a world mastercard, you get gold status for that year and the next year.

You can apply using the link below so long as you hold any World Mastercard (E.g. Citi Rewards World Mastercard, CIMB World Mastercard, etc):

Starwood Hotels & Resorts

Best CC for miles for online purchase / payment

The DSB Woman WORLD Mastercard is easily the most flexible card to earn miles!!!!

Any online purchase ( in SGD only ??? ) earns you 10x points ( max $2k / month for $24K limit per year ) => $1 = 4 KF Miles.

the problem is if u apply le but dun use, after 1st year u cancel, they die die say wan claw back the 1st year annual charge without waiver if u cancel then how.

afterall as written, 2nd year onwards they will wan u to pay annual charges unless u spend above 25k.

Anyway, for ppl who apply, they definitely will have a use for it. Anyway for $24k spend, you get 96,000 KF miles. If you spend $1k more to get it waived, it can be done. Else, pay $192.60 for annual fee if you maximise to get 96,000 miles, still worth it bah....

That's what every bank says for their cards and you can always either (a) get waiver or (b) cancel the card without further penalty.

Anyway, this card is only attractive if you do a lot of purchases online. If not, there is a limited attraction to it. Frankly, I would prefer UOB Preferred Amex. It also offers 4 miles per $ for purchases as stores selling clothes, bags, shoes and department stores, including online purchases. That covers most of the online shopping we do. The rest are at iTunes, Amazon, which are 'low value' items. I have Citibank Clear card (even if it earns at a lesser 2 miles /$ for that) for those.

That & also I do not fulfil the most basic criteria...

for point b, i understand.
as for point a, seem like the new card they introducing then have such typical clause.

so until its longer in the market, hard to gauge.
