Yes got foreign currency expenses

most people use UOB Lady's aside from Citi Rewards. For certain categories I'm using HSBC Premier since the cap is much higher, but that is a cashback card

Why did i receive email from Amaze saying i didn't use their service for 11months?

I've been using their card, but very long never use their remit service.

The exchange rates or illegal charge?

I think is Instarem’s spread. Almost 2.50%

Instarem is 2%. I used it for ringgit. 2% plus ~0.1% mc spread.

Yeah Instarem is closer to 2.5% for all my recent transactions. (~2.40-2.46% over multiple txns)

the rate is exactly 2% of Mastercard's rate. if you're comparing with mid market rate then maybe 2.5%

Used to be 1.8 of MasterCard's... More and more unattractive liao..

still better then bank's 3.25%. link it with the right card, still get benefits. if card benefits doesn't cover Amaze charges then better just use trust or youtrip

Yeah. I am using Amaze and Citi Rewards. And I am okay with +S$0.03 per 1 USD.

That is an equivalent to S$3.00 for US$100. The points I earned should be worth the “slightly higher” rates/spread.

Yes I was comparing against mid-market. But against Mastercard it is consistently 2.15% not 2%.
