Figures are estimates based on the spending you entered, assumed steady across the year, using standard Merchant Category Code (MCC) classifications and each issuer’s published rates. Monthly caps, annual fees and minimum-spend requirements are shown on every row and factored into the projections. Not modelled: promotional sign-up bonuses, merchant-specific exclusions, fee waivers beyond the first-year window shown, and future rate changes by issuers. First-year figures assume a new cardholder eligible for introductory rates; ongoing figures reflect post-introductory rates. Standard merchant coverage estimates are based on Singapore market share; you can adjust them in the settings above.
Actual earnings depend on your eligibility and each bank’s current terms, which may differ from the figures shown here — always verify with the issuer before applying.

How cashback is calculated
Card rankings on this page are dynamically calculated using the latest 2026 cashback metrics, category spending caps, minimum income thresholds, and active annual fees sourced from official banking portals in Singapore. The system projects estimated monthly and yearly cashback returns by parsing your configurable monthly spend across common categories (e.g., dining, travel, local retail) against each card's unique matrix. Spending limits are factored into the calculation algorithm to provide realistic projections. These projections are for illustrative purposes only and do not constitute financial advice.

What's the difference between the Citi Cash Back and the Citi Cash Back+ Card?
The Citi Cash Back+ Card pays a flat 1.6% on all spend with no minimum spend and no cashback cap — simple and predictable. The Citi Cash Back Card pays tiered bonuses (8% on groceries, petrol and private-hire transport, 6% on dining) but requires S$800 monthly spend and caps total cashback at S$80 per month. Heavy grocery and dining spenders earn more from the Cash Back Card. Everyone else benefits from the cap free Cash Back+.
How do monthly cashback caps work?
Most Singapore cashback cards limit how much cashback you can earn per month — either per category or in total. Once the cap is reached, additional spend in that category earns the base rate or no further cashback for the month.
What counts as eligible spend?
Banks typically exclude insurance premiums, education, government payments, charitable donations, and certain utility bills. Check each card's exclusion list before relying on the projected cashback.
What happens if I do not meet the minimum monthly spend?
Cards with a minimum spend requirement fall back to a lower rate (often around 0.2% to 0.3%) for the month if you do not hit the threshold. The calculator applies this fallback automatically.
How does the annual fee waiver work?
Some cards waive the annual fee from year two onwards if you spend above a certain annual amount.
Are these rates guaranteed?
No. Banks change cashback rates, caps, and eligible categories regularly. The numbers shown are projections based on rates verified at the date noted, not guarantees of future earnings.
