for the 3x points, need min $1.67 spending. Even if below $1.67 still can get the x7 points, calculated based in total transactions in the month.

I just double check with my cc bill. Receive 1pt for all transaction above 1.67 and below 5 dollars..


Yea know about the 7x points, its total transaction

Thats for foreign transactions only right? Local min still $5 for 1 pt.

Your bill will show you the number of points that will be expiring by the end of each quarter.

Not all online trans WWMC will earn points..best to read the TNC for exclusions, look at the crowdsourced spreadsheet and search in this topic to see if there was past attempts by users here/stories before charging your WWMC to it..

And yes DBS pools points earned across diff cards..but Altitude doesnt expires like Citi PM..Cant comment on how to track expiry cos I just only got the card a few mths back..LOL..

points are pooled. can check expiry of points on each card on DBS reward website. points that expire first will be redeemed first when doing redemption.

thanks!! will take note.

DBS better than citi pm/prestige for local online, get at least 9x points, higher than that for citi pm/prestige

For local offline spend, I guess you comparing DBS altitude with citi pm. DBS altitude give 1 DBS point every $1.667. It is actually comparable to that of citi PM.

Refer here for further explanation.

I think some people prefer Citi PM mainly because it has less exclusion. This will be changed with the TnC change starting 4 Oct. Think DBS altitude will be better then as points across DBS cards can be redeemed together unlike citibank.

Ah yes. I have stopped using Citi cards altogether already. Wasted my 4.7k miles inside. Oh well.

Prefer DBS and UOB as I can redeem miles across all my cards for them.

Actually for wwmc local online spend even if less than $5, i don't get the base 1 pt but i still get the 9x on the 16 of following mth since its on cumulative spend less than 2k? So even if less than $5 so long its online its better to use wemc. Or my interpretation is wrong?

Yes. Points expire after a year though.

What's the difference between across all card and not across all card?

After one year. Move points to KF. There can store for 3 more years. Like that actually is 4 years?

If can redeem points for miles across all cards from the bank then can maximise points earning using the right cards for different kinds of transaction. Also need to pay one redemption fee across the cards instead of one fee for each card.

Yes. need to clock enough points in the year for the block of points needed for mile redemption though.

I see. Like attitude and wmcc mix and use then redeem together.

Yes... post oct 4 DBS alt and CITI pm will be similar... I like CITI because they do post miles statement (albeit base on daily transaction) unlike DBS where I have to maintain my own spreadsheet...
