Want to get a HSBC credit card? You’ll soon need a minimum income of S$65,000 p.a., more than double the existing requirement unless you’re willing to park S$50,000 with the bank. While some credit cards publish income requirements as high as S$500,000 p.a., it’s worth remembering that any threshold above the MAS-mandated S$30,000 p.a. is essentially arbitrary. Income requirements can affect the credit limit granted (anyone earning less than S$120,000 p.a. is capped at 4X their monthly income). So in practice, income requirements are more about customer segmentation. With that background in mind, HSBC is making a very unusual move…
The Maybank Horizon Visa Signature excels at FCY and air ticket spending, and its lack of exclusions is a pleasant surprise. A major revamp in late 2023 introduced 2.8 mpd on air tickets and foreign currency (FCY) spending. While 2.8 mpd is not exactly market-leading, the absence of a cap for FCY spend and a generous S$10,000 monthly cap for air tickets are appealing. Rewards for education, hospitals, insurance premiums and utilities can be earned; overlook the relatively short validity of TREATS Points and this could be worth considering. Verdict ☑ Take It☐ Take It Or Leave It☐ Leave It…
