Earn Miles on GrabPay Wallet Top-ups with OCBC VOYAGE Card - 01 August to 30 September 2021
OCBC VOYAGE Card members can earn 2.5 VOYAGE Miles for every S$5 (equivalent to 0.5 miles per dollar) that they spend on GrabPay Wallet (and other eligible merchants) top-ups from 01 August 2021 to 30 September 2021 if they spend a minimum aggregate amount of S$1,000 per month, during the aforementioned promotional period. Do note that this is capped at 10,000 VOYAGE Miles per month and the qualifying spend can be accumulated across supplementary card(s) as well.

Eligible card members will be able to earn VOYAGE Miles when they top-up their wallet on GrabPay, SingtelDash, ShopeePay and Lazada during the promotional period - a category of spend that is typically excluded by banks. While a 0.5 mpd earn rate might not seem like a lot to get excited over, it is definitely better than nothing since these transactions typically do not earn points or cashback. With that said, there are three credit cards in Singapore that offer rewards on these transactions officially:
UOB Absolute Cashback Card - 1.7% Cashback
The American Express True Cashback Card - 1.5% Cashback
The American Express Singapore Airlines Business Credit Card - 1.8 Miles per Dollar
Chasing oneworld Emerald took me to Sapporo instead of Fukuoka, and a Marriott Bonvoy points redemption at the Courtyard turned out to be one of the better decisions of the trip.
