Citi PremierMiles Card, Prestige and ULTIMA Now Earns 2.4 MPD on Overseas Spend - 01 October to 31 December
Citibank has the most number of airline partners in which you can convert your Citi Miles into airline miles. From 01 October 2018 to 31 December 2018, cardholders of the Citi PremierMiles Card will be able to earn 2.4 (instead of 2.0) Citi Miles per Dollar on all eligible retail spend charged in a foreign currency other than SGD - this is 20% higher than what is usually offered to cardholders.

Improving the earn rate from foreign currency transactions to 2.4 Citi Miles per dollar will put this card in line with other credit cards like the UOB PRVI Card in terms of the earn rate but the Citibank credit cards are preferable since they earn miles on every dollar instead of every S$5 block. The Citi Prestige as well as the elusive ULTIMA will also see the supersized earn rate on foreign currency transactions in the same promotional period. If you have upcoming trips abroad, it might be a good idea to shift some of that spend to one of these three Citibank credit cards.
As we head into 2026, the miles game has shifted. With tighter caps on key cards like the UOB Preferred Platinum Visa and UOB Lady's Solitaire, optimising spend is more crucial than ever. In this article, I share the six credit cards I will be actively using in the upcoming year.
