Which DBS/POSB Mastercard for 2x $STAR is like the best for the upcoming changes?

but it may not always be about getting the $STAR ma. need to see more holistically whether better to continue to use other cards and get no $STAR

vs

compromising on the cards that can be used just to get it.

hmm there are only a limited number of MC for dbs/posb right. check them out?

also really depends on what you spend on? cause the diversity of expenses can be so different so really have to self check out?

Today is the start of the new rewards system ....

Anyone has used it? Feedback?

I only realised that there was a top-up $100 get $10 promo using Mastercard from 01 July .... when I see it, fully redeemed ....

This month onwards very challenging .... I used UOB one as my primary card ... with this Capitastar new rewards system, and with pending removal of rewards for DFI stores, especially Guardian and 7-11, think I will prioritise UOB one usage vs. Capitastar rewards ....

Used to be able to stack Changi rewards for CapitaStar$. It seems that from today not able to do so. I paid via Shopback at Jewel and that transaction cannot earn Star$. Couldn't find anything online regarding this change.

Parents noted an issue. CDC voucher offset doesn’t seemed to count.
So if $21 offset $5 becomes $16 and doesn’t gets tracked by the app.

I linked a OCBC Mastercard to Capitastar app and use that card to pay (via Apple Pay) for a $25 transaction. I did not get any STAR$. Is the STAR$ awarded instantly? Still prefer the old system :(

it should work using physical linked card or Apple Pay/Google Pay etc. Is stated on the diagram.

On the FAQ, it says should be within 24 hours, or you can DM them if not received after 7 business days.
