How to pick the right card
- 1.Start with the sign-up bonus.It's usually the biggest points haul of year one — but check the minimum spend and whether you can meet it without buying things you don't need.
- 2.Weigh the earn rate against the annual fee. A higher points-per-dollar rate only pays off if your spend is large enough to outrun the fee.
- 3.Decide: direct or flexible. Earning KrisFlyer miles directly is simplest; earning transferable bank points keeps your options open if your plans (or Singapore Airlines KrisFlyer's value) change.
- 4.Have a redemption in mind.Points are only worth earning if you'll use them — check what KrisFlyer miles actually books before you apply.
Frequently asked

Cards that earn flexible bank points keep your options open — you can transfer to Singapore Airlines KrisFlyer or to a different program later — but transfers are one-way and ratios change, so they suit people who value flexibility over simplicity.
