InstaReM's AMAZE MasterCard

[hwmook]

anyone can share if Maybank fnf on petrol station is Ok to use with amaze or have to charge direct? since its based on mcc should be ok, maybe try to accumulate all on ntuc using citi cashback and fnf.

Confirm can, I have been using like that.

Hi
Sorry very new to instarem. Can I link instarem to uob absolute cashback and top up grab then transfer out to bank account and earn 1.7% + 1% cashback?

1. Instarem can only link with Mastercard not Amex
2. Grab top up from credit card will not be allowed to transfer out to bank. can only use to spend
3. grab top ups will not earn 1% cashback from Amaze.

Pretty disappointed to hear the sub par experience from milelion on txn dispute process.

could these have been avoided if unselect "Cross Border Transactions" ?

last resort is to block card when not in use

I read this article and zitao do both

Set the linked credit card to "Amaze Wallet". I assume that most people have nothing in it so then any fraudulent transactions will fail.

How safe are the actual credit card details stored in Amaze? It's always been a concern.

if i had spent more than $500 for jan, does it mean i don't have to spend anything in Feb and Mar to receive the 1% cashback on 25th Apr for my 1st quarter spending?

Huh ? $500 spending cashback is only $5 right ?
Max cashback is $100 per qtr correct.

how does credit card holds work (by hotel or rental car)? Will it automatically get refunded?

It will not be posted and disappear from your card transaction if the hotel or car rental has no claim on the holding amount

but amaze will charge the amount upfront right?

I find it hard to find usage for it too many exclusions... w such risks

 

[highsulphur]

Just lock the card unless using

Based on understanding so far, is it safe to pair Amaze with a DBS Master in this 2.2 Promo to get 8% + 1% for transport / petrol ?

Should be ok for the 8% so long mcc is under the transportation category, but Amaze exclude 1% rebate for mcc 4111
