Rest assured for many credit cards in Singapore, the value of the rewards gained will outweigh our fees.
Our benefits calculator will help you calculate the miles or cashback earned based on the credit card used and amount spent. Please also visit our blog for regular tips on how to maximise your miles and cashback versus CardUp’s fee.
To help you along, here is an example based on a miles card for your consideration:
We will assume 2 factors:
(1) Monthly payments of $5,480
(2) UOB PRVI Miles Visa Card which has a yield of 1.4 miles per dollar spent

Worth |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Insurance | $830 per month | $123.30 per month | 7,840 air miles per month | Worth $4,000 when redeemed for a return business class flight to Japan! |
| Rental | $2,900 per month | |||
| Education fees | $900 per month | |||
