StanChart unveils 'upfront rewards' credit card with Tigerair

Offers upfront rewards on an ongoing basis.

In a release, Tigerair and Standard Chartered announced the launch of the Standard Chartered Tigerair Platinum Credit Card, Singapore’s only no-frills airline credit card.

It is the only credit card in Singapore that offers upfront rewards on an ongoing basis, whereby customers can redeem air tickets and enjoy other travel perks even before they start spending on the card.

Innovative “Upfront Rewards”
The “Upfront Rewards” plan allows cardholders to receive their air ticket even before they have started spending on the card.

All cardholders need to do is spend S$5,000 after claiming their ticket. There is no limit to the number of tickets that cardholders can receive, as long as they fulfil the spending requirement after claiming each ticket.

On top of that, when applying for the card, customers are entitled to an additional ticket when they select the “Upfront Rewards” plan.

The free air tickets are inclusive of tax and other surcharges, and are valid for one-way travel from Singapore. Customers will get to choose from 11 of Tigerair’s most popular regional destinations, namely Bangkok, Hat Yai, Ho Chi Minh City, Jakarta, Krabi, Kuala Lumpur, Medan, Penang, Pekanbaru, Phuket, and Surabaya.

With other airline rewards programmes it will take three times more credit card spending to redeem a free flight. The card also offers cardholders the option of a conventional rewards programme if the cardholder is enrolled in the “Future Rewards” plan.

Beyond rewards, cardholders also get to enjoy a complimentary suite of travel perks for all Tigerair flights booked with their card.

Travel perks include benefits such as boardmefirst priority boarding, advance seat selection, additional check-in baggage allowance (from 20kg to 25kg) as well as a free Stripes membership worth S$29.95 which allows cardholders access to fantastic fare deals ahead of the general public.

Other benefits for cardholders include access to over 1,000 Standard Chartered dining deals and retail discounts.
