Surely there is other card better than this Great Wall card with the miserly 0.1%.

Although I agree even $10 should not let go if is so easy

I believe it is artificial spend. Use debit card to pay your CC. This trick is there since ancient ages (old bonussaver of $30). Extra $$ inside CC can then withdrawn without any spend through other means.

But $10 per mth is a bit of hassle, and I rather use the spare $10k to pay off my housing loan. Because the $10K will stuck for a few days also.

Unless you have multiple accounts...

use the card for any spending u will get 0.1% cash rebate.

Like what some pro have mentioned, it is not really a bonus interest. Just the debit card mechanics. Similar to what DBS will be giving you for the no withdrawal promotion. Is just that I treat it as bonus earn.

I dont really treat all as interests since you have to do actions to unlock the higher rebates from banks. I treat all of the actions i do as unlock higher cash rebates.

Jus like i have to spend $10k on the debit card to get $10

Ur method is good but like what u say a hassle and have 0 benefits.

Mine I think much better. I do not pay anything upfront to my credit card.
Yet I can still earn interest from the money from credit card

I.e. I am able to use the money in credit card to earn interest from saving account at the same time earning the $10

Theoretically I earn much more than $10

So u won't think it as a hassle if you know the way like me.

Same method actually. Charge to credit card first and then pay the CC by debit card a mth later. Same concept.

I suppose you use debit to pay any Standard chartered CC bah.
I remember a lot of ppl use this method for the 2% cashback from SC XtraSaver 5 years ago. People also use this method to pay for legitimate POEMS stocks or use CC to pay for funds in dollardex.

Can earn up to $30 for Xtrasaver but now is only $10. You might as well buy REITS that leverage on this free temporary money through this loop.

having to spend a few thousand dollars monthly to get Credit card rebates is very difficult...

i wonder if there are other options we can do to get the rebates without having to spend on retail / purchase real things

Is using creditcard to buy stocks currently still an option for receiving cashbacks?

would appreciate PM me pls if you feel is not convenient to disclose further info in thread

I am surprised so many people PM me tell me loophole will close. But till date I have not share anything or the method.


Those that all of your are concerns with I have no idea. It must be something easy to replicate.

I appreciate the concerns. Thats why till date I have not share my method. No matter how u read it u won't be able to tell the exact method

My spendings are legit.
