Citi Singapore has a rather long list of participating merchants for this campaign and they span over four major categories - Food Delivery, Online Pharmacies, Online Leisure, as well as Online & In-Store Groceries. Food delivery merchants include the usual suspects like foodpanda and Deliveroo (but no GrabFood unfortunately) if you are using foodpanda, do note that you can save even more by purchasing discounted vouchers online and opting for a self pick-up (to save up to 20% off) where applicable. Similarly, if you wish to enjoy up to 8 miles per dollar on GrabFood (which is not a participating partner), you may consider getting discounted vouchers online on Shopee or Lazada (which gives you 8 mpd) and use that as a proxy for earning maximum miles on the platform.

If you are doing a purchase (be it for grocery or at a pharmacy) at a participating Dairy Farm brand, your PAssion Card will be able to get you some extra KrisFlyer Miles (or even cash rebate) along the way.

How Much More Miles and Cashback Can I Earn?

Depending on which Citi Credit Card you are holding, you can benefit up to an additional 2% cashback or an extra 4 miles per dollar under this campaign. Citi Singapore has published a fairly straightforward chart to summarise the promotion mechanics but essentially you unlock the most rewards (or cashback) when you use your registered card(s) across Food Delivery, Online Pharmacies and Online Leisure merchants. Interestingly enough, you will also earn bonus miles and cashback (even though you should consider buying online to get the most value) when you use your registered card(s) in-store at Cold Storage, Giant, Jasons, MarketPlace, NTUC FairPrice and Sheng Siong.

Is There A Cap on Additional Rewards and Cashback?

The total additional rewards that you can earn from this Accelerated Rewards campaign is capped at S$1,000 for the entire period. Therefore, you should try to use your registered card across the three main categories as much as possible to extract the most value out of this promotion - Food Delivery, Online Pharmacies and Online Leisure. The S$1,000 cap is also valid for each registered card so if you have all three of the aforementioned Citi Credit Cards, you will be able to take advantage of the S$1,000 cap on each one of the three cards.
