Not reserve some for pay Hawker or take GrabTaxi?.
How you plan to Pay your TC fees and Income TAX?

Hawkers there’s always amex pay, FavePay, or just pay cash. Kill the grab amex rebates first.

income tax always giro installment, no incentive or benefit to pay one shot anyways.

Giro arrangement does not prevent you from paying Tax throughout other channels. Actuallyyou can pay any amount and at any time as you wish, up to your Tax amount.

Can trial and error, not suited to comment in public forum. I see Grab progressively implementing this to few other merchants...

Hahaha yup! For grab services could use other CC directly without topping up the wallet. For GrabPay merchants, most of them have ShopBack these days too

Direct cc means no grab point.
Some shop only cash or green logo. I will still choose green logo over cash.

Yup of course it over cash! The grab points are rather low, and would rather clock cashback or miles
