Banks in Singapore provide generous sign-up offers when you’re signing up for a new credit card. In our opinion, obtaining great sign-up offers is the best way to quickly earn a lot of points and miles for free travel. Some banks will also offer the latest electronic devices as sign-up offers. These are some great ways to save a lot of money.
This page provides an up-to-date list of sign-up offers currently available in the market.

Before signing up for the cards, do take note of the spending requirements and your eligibility for the offers. Most of the offers have some sort of new-to-bank or new-to-card requirement. This means that oftentimes you’ll only be able to earn the offer from a bank once.
However, it is often possible to re-instate the new-to-bank or new-to-card statuses if you cancel your cards and do not own any cards from the bank for a period of time. We do not recommend cancelling your cards immediately after getting the signup offer. Banks dislike customers who game the system and might claw back your rewards. If possible, try to at least hold the card for a year before deciding to cancel it.
We’ll recommend strategising carefully the card you’ll want to apply for from each bank before taking the plunge.
Citibank
Citi Prestige Card

Sign up Bonus |
---|
177,500 Points (71,000 miles) after spending S$800 within 2 months |
There is currently a 71,000 miles sign-up bonus for spending just S$800 within 2 months of card approval. This bonus is eligible for anyone who is not currently a cardholder of the Citi Prestige Card, even if you are an existing Citibank credit cardholder!
This is an incredibly outsized offer and the highest we’ve seen in some time. I’d highly recommend going for it if you have already been eyeing the Citi Prestige Card. Do take note of the high annual fee though.

The signing bonus is only available to new-to-bank applicants. You are considered a new-to-bank applicant if you’re not currently a Citibank primary cardholder, and have not cancelled a Citibank card in the past 12 months.
Also, you’ll need to spend a minimum of S$500 within 30 days of card approval to be eligible for the reward.
UOB
UOB Lady’s Card and Lady’s Solitaire Card

Read our review of the UOB Lady’s Card here.
Offer Available | Criteria |
---|---|
S$350 Grab Voucher | First 200 new-to-UOB credit card customers who spend min. S$1,000 per month for 2 consecutive months. |
UOB typically does not have a great sign-up bonus. The UOB Lady’s Card is no exception. Their usual new-to-bank language and limited allocations mean that more often than not you’ll not be able to get anything out of signing up for a UOB card.
To qualify for the sign-up bonus, you must not be an existing UOB principal cardholder, and must not have cancelled any UOB cards 6 months before the card approval date.
UOB KrisFlyer Card

Read our review of the UOB KrisFlyer Card here.
Offers Available |
---|
Earn up to 31,000 KrisFlyer miles |
Breakdown of Offer | Miles Awarded |
---|---|
Welcome miles for first-time applicants | 5,000 |
Completion of spending requirements | 20,000 |
Qualifying spend based on SIA Group spend | 6,000 |
The first 5,000 miles will be credited to your KrisFlyer account after making the first purchase with the UOB KrisFlyer Card. To receive the next 20,000 miles, you’ll have to spend at least S$2,000 within 60 days of card approval.
Even though the headline title says 31,000 KrisFlyer miles, the actual bonus that you can earn is 25,000 KrisFlyer miles which is still quite respectable. The other 6,000 miles are miles that you’d already have earned for spending on the card.
The current sign-up offer is only available to new-to-bank UOB customers only. This means that you cannot currently hold any UOB credit cards or have held one in 6 months prior to application.
UOB PRVI Miles Card
