Damn, I just went and applied for DBS multiplier account and was looking forward to use the debit card for the 5% rebate, and now they change the terms.

So to earn this rebate basically you need to have an account with another bank so that you can do a fast transfer and withdraw cash from ATM?

I have DBS cashline account, but I guess it is counted as DBS ATM card so it gets counted in the 400 withdrawal limit. So I will need to apply for a cashline account with another bank.

from March onwards "you can enjoy 5% cashback on all local Visa payWave spend on your DBS Visa Debit Card when you spend minimum S$400 on your Card in that month."

Hmm.. you are right doesn't make sense. Might as well sign up for UOB One and spend another 100, to get 3.3% on all spend.

Or, get Maybank Platinum Visa. Spend $300/month for 3 months and get 3.33% cashback.

But still can use EZ-Link top up to make up the $400 Min spending right?

Yup, as long as it's by Visa/Mastercard and not by NETS. Do note they have a 10% rebate (contactless transactions) promo for the next 3 months if you don't withdraw cash at all. A good deal even with the min 400 spend, in my opinion.

I saw in the tnc limit of max $200. So if i make 2 paywave trans 200 each then ok? Can the card be used to pay for $200? I thought paywave only eligible for up to $100 per transaction?

If I withdraw cash from dbs cashline account, using its atm card, is it considered as part of the withdrawal limit?
