thats the end of ipaymy and cardup for people who want to arbitrage on cashback only, if grab and axs can get 1.7%, who will use ipaymy to incur 2% fee for a 3% UOB one rebate..the exclusion is not necessary and an extra step..make no difference to outcome.

not really , tax recurring payment is 1.75% no need code, even if UOB reduce the $2k spend to 3.33% rebate, still worthwhile doing ipaymy.
So it does make a difference .

with uob absolute cashback 1.7% and GPMC you can pay off tax on AXS, and its not code dependent, so you get higher rebate with more convenience.

IMHO, CardUp is most useful for Mortgage loan payments.. Which mostly are GIRO'd from only your bank account..

there is a limit of 30k per yr on that .
i just told you the 1.75% is also NO CODE needed. And schedule automated deduction.
How is this less convenient ???

yes this is the best use of ipaymy or cardup, a $4k per month mortgage can get around 3% (5%-2% fees) back if paired with 2uob one cc, even a 3.33% aint too bad since the cap is $2k per month. The exclusion of payment platform on uob nerfed the best use case which is mortgage, the other 6% card with monthly cap is too low.

so in short, only left the 6%

3.33% - 1.75% = 1.58%, the other option is 1.75% with 30k limit. if tax is low 3 or 4 digit G works within the annual limit, if its 5 digit can use a few account to pay off, and the 0.17% matter even more for large tax bracket

anyway these 2 methods are not the best way to pay tax when there is one that offer 3.7%

yeah mortgage on average is few K per month, you need a UOB one which offer 3.33/5% per month to use ipaymy, there is another maybank cc which give 3%, think that one still work but 1k limit

I keep thinking what is 3.7% route? Cannot be Gr** combo since no point given now.

Actually still can keep uob one with ax* pay + earn . Last time still works but the cost is high. Still earn a bit . 0.8 %.

Enough to use for some kind of filler
