#3 Perpetually free monthly waivers

Most credit cards have excessive monthly spend obligations to fulfil in order to reap the benefits, which ironically may be a financial crutch. With a reasonably attainable monthly expenditure of S$800, you get to enjoy a multitude of cashback benefits and exclusive discounts. 

Also, forget about those pesky annual fees because just three purchases a month for twelve months get you a waiver on your annual fees. This way, your annual fee is perpetually waived off for life!

If you’ve got an existing UOB One Account, make the most of it by applying for the UOB EVOL –– or other UOB credit cards for the matter. Credit card spending of at least $500 is one of the recognised categories to earn you higher interest rates, up to a maximum marketed rate of 6% p.a. 

For deposits of up to S$150,000 while meeting other criteria, you can expect a maximum effective interest rate (EIR) on the following:

  • 0.65% p.a. EIR on deposits of S$75,000 + min. S$500 credit card spend
  • 2.00% p.a. EIR on deposits of S$75,000 + min. S$500 credit card spend + 3 GIRO debit transactions per month
  • 6.00% p.a. EIR on deposits of S$150,000 + min. S$500 credit card spend + 3 GIRO debit transactions per month + min. S$1,600 salary credit via GIRO/PAYNOW per month

#5 Stay protected overseas with complimentary travel insurance

Want to travel overseas with peace of mind? Forgot to buy last-minute travel insurance? No fret, UOB EVOL provides complimentary travel insurance coverage when you charge your full travel tickets to the card upon checkout.

Insured with United Overseas Insurance (UOI), enjoy up to S$500,000 complimentary coverage for Public Conveyance Personal Accidents along with up to S$50,000 complimentary coverage for Emergency Medical Assistance, Evacuation and Repatriation due to accident or illness, including COVID-19.

While this coverage seems decent, it's actually missing protection for a few essential components like travel delay, trip cancellation, baggage delay, baggage loss, and others. 

Not to mention, the policy only insures the principal cardholder. It does not extend coverage to your partners or children. Therefore, this complimentary travel insurance is only sufficient if you're going on a solo trip or on a short-stint holiday.

Otherwise, we highly recommend finding other comprehensive travel insurance coverage (including COVID-19 if you prefer) for your group and family trips.
