Maybank SaveUp requires min CC spending $500 while the cash rebate (3.3%) for CC to be used eg. Platinum Visa is for $300 only, right?

How do you guys manage the shortfall of $200 in between? thanks.

For CC spending part, the effective cash rebate is $30/(3x$500)=2% which seems quite low.
the 500 spending not only let you get rebate. it also qualifies as 1 of the 3 products you use to meet the higher interest rate (others like loans, insurance etc).

u can try to put some other fixed bills on the card as well. for me, normally no issue on meeting the minimum spend...

I usually spend $1000 monthly to get full 3.33% rebate and bonus intetest

Hi, for the $300 giro out, of course Trazora's post on "dbs/posb cc online bill payment to pay maybank cc, then use giro to pay dbs/posb cc" works. But does giro to transfer $300 to another bank acc work as well (e.g. stanchart)? Prefer 1 step to 2 steps. Thanks.

Update us here if you manage to find out from Maybank. I’m interested to know too :)

Yes, I am currently doing so and it works. You need to indicate in your GIRO transfer with words like SAL or SALARY.
Dont ask me why but the manager told me so.

Why not when it is a giro transaction out?

From their website, they will just "sum up all the monthly GIRO debit transactions"

I'm with Trazora. Tried it (filled up Giro form to transfer $300 to CIMB account monthly). Doesn't work.

hi there,

I am thinking of signup.
However, unsure about the constraint.

1.Giro $300, can it be used to pay my UOB credit card bill?
2. $2000 salary per month- can I transfer from my DBS account to my bank account?
3. $500 card spent (I have to monitor my UOB cc card transaction, if more than $500 I will use this)

This sounds slightly better than UOB one card.

I pay my phone,internet bill,insurance,tax,utility bills thru giro n cc..salary has to be direct to bank no 3rd party..cc got extra $30 rebate every quarter if every mth min spend hit..

Set up the maybank cc as billing organisation in DBS/POSB ibanking, use DBS/POSB cc to pay min $300 to the maybank cc. Giro from maybank saveup account to pay the DBS/POSB cc.

What's the best way to do this? Any recommended POSB/DBS card I should use to get the best rebates out of this?

Ya. I am also wondering.

Comparing to CC spend $500/m, $300/m on Unit Trust with RSP seems more investment savvy?

Is there a quick summary dashboard like ocbc's and dbs/posb's to show customer if they have fulfilled the products and services?
