Sorry we’re new to vehicles and it’s company-owned. I read that credit/debit cards can be used so I was thinking if GPMC works. So even for other credit/debit cards, they need to have the CEPAS logo at the back?
The best option for carpark is ez-link (can redeem discount vouchers or ezlink credits) but you also need a spare nets cash card, as some old carparks don't accept ezlink or nets flash pay.

For the nets cashcard, must it be the chip-based version or the contactless one will do? I read that they’re phasing out cashcards soon.
If the best option for carpark is ez-link, what abt ERP?

We normally leave the ez link for all usage. Cashcard standby for some old carpark.

you can link your IU unit to your credit card so it will auto debit for ERP charges. Apply here https://ezpayreg.ezlink.com.sg/
but this only works for ERP and some limited carparks.

for car park next best option is to use Ez link as others said and you can also set EZ link to auto top up so no longer need to hunt for top up machines. But some old carparks don support so still need the old cashcard as backup just in case.

I read up and it states “EZ-Pay registration is currently not applicable for company-registered vehicles.” so I guess this is not an option.

For ez-link auto topup, AMEX and GPMC are not accepted right? Are there any cards (besides Citi SMRT) that can earn cashback?

And you mentioned “old cashcard as backup”, do you mean the chip-based verison or the contactless one?

the annual limit of $30,000 for Grab MC, is this the top up limit or the spend limit? The reason I'm asking is top up via credit card needs to be spent where else for debit card, the balance not spend can be transferred out.

Cashcard is always the chip one (old tech). If the building carpark very old gantry, you'll be thankful for this as standby card. I Kenna at a yatch club and luckily my fren was driving behind me I borrow his to exit otherwise a long queue occurs.

The contactless motoring card I can pretty much confirm is a fake gimmick I was at nets hq and I asked what's so special about the card. Counter person basically confirmed my suspicion that it's basically a NFP card and the name just marketed as new name and future proof are basically gimmicks. The card doesn't even support the old gantries.

I need to keep track separately. Had 1.5k stuck since Nov. Now reset and can use again!

Don’t have any cashcard at the moment, so I guess I’ll need to buy 1 tmr.

I see… so I just need an ez-link card for both ERP and carparks, and then keep a cashcard just in case, right?

How do you maximize credit card rebates for ez-link topups?

GPMC topped up with UOB Absolute and used at GTM. You won't get Grab points but you get the cashback from topping up your card.

Oh yes, I’m aware of this but if I’m not mistaken, the max is only $100 per day? Do you know of any ways to get cc rebates for ez-link auto topup besides CitiSMRT and SCB Unlimited?

The top up max 100? Don’t think so.
