InstaReM's AMAZE MasterCard

[RedsYWNA]

$0.50 or 2%, whichever higher

Thanks. On 2nd thought, think I will just top-up S$20 ntuc gift card instead. Haha

 

[Belford]

?? Wat do u mean? If u top up 1K, 2% is already $20 incurred. Wat card is this got such high cashback?

He means that when he cashout 2000 points ($20) via Grab, he pays $0.40 $0.50 fee. So effectively, 2000 insta points = $19.50

I have an issue of unable to Activate the Amaze card? Does anyone has this problem when you initially receive the physical card? On another note, there isn't a virtual card on the app too? Does the virtual card share the same card information as the physical card?

What issue? Just ask them to replace the card if the physical card doesn't work lah.

Instapoint only for foreign spending unless u are talking about the amaze wallet promotion.

Instapoint only for foreign spending unless u are talking about the amaze wallet promotion.

to add on hospital mcc 8062 is excluded from instapoints, so no points even for the 4x instapoints promo. However if it is public hospital, can pay via healthhub, mcc 8099 not excluded from the 4x instapoint promo which require payment from Amaze wallet by 30 Jun

Yes the 4x promo. Thanks for this tip of using healthhub. My total bill is 2K, wonder if I can make smaller payments each time in healthhub of $125 each time, since promo limits max of 500 pts per transaction which means its $125 limit.

yes, I think can pay partial multiple times

Oh no, nerfed...
amaze wallet transaction fee
A 2% fee will be applicable to domestic (SGD) transactions involving GrabPay, prepaid cards and other e-wallet top-ups, when using amaze linked to your wallet.

means if use for cashflow need pay 2%??

 

[ekardo]

Instarem having issue ? online payment seems to be stucked at ID check in Mastercard authorization check..

 

[MadwolfNemesis]

I don't think the difference is only 0.5%

I just returned from China also, spent about 12 Days there, linking my InstaRem with Alipay, while wife linked hers with YouTrip.

The difference was between 1%++ to 1.7% as compared to MC rates.

But considering the 1% cashback and the 10x points for my Citi Rewards, the additional 0.5%-0.7% is worth spending on getting the 10x points which could be converted to cashback/miles.
