πŸ’³ Updated: What Card to Use Guide

I've completed an update to the What Card guide, which is now current as of May 2026.

⚠️ Important reminder: Categories can overlap (e.g for online dining you can use a card with bonuses for online spend, or a card with bonuses for dining spend) or be subsets of each other (e.g. if a card gives bonuses for mobile payments, it doesn't matter if those payments are at a supermarket, department store, restaurant, hairdresser etc.). Don't view categories too rigidly!

Changelog

πŸ‘ HSBC Revolution permanently restores bonuses for travel and contactless spend, now earns up to 8 mpd on bonus categories with S$1.2K monthly cap for EGA customers with min. S$50K ADB in a sole SGD account

πŸ‘ OCBC Rewards Card extends 6 mpd on Shopee, Lazada, TikTok Shop, Taobao and Watsons to 30 June 2026

πŸ‘ Maybank Horizon Visa Signature offering 3.2 mpd on RMB, HKD, IDR, JPY, MYR, TWD, KRW and THB till 30 June 2026

πŸ’³ UOB Preferred Platinum Visa now renamed UOB Preferred Visa

πŸ†• New: Maybank Perks Card (don't bother)
