Register for Double Stay Credit at Conrad and Waldorf Astoria - Targeted Offer

I have never been targeted with any Hilton Honors promotion (apart form the global ones that they run) and so I was surprised to find an email this morning for the registration of a double stay credit promotion. This targeted offer will allow me to earn twice the stay credit (essentially each completed stay will count as two stays) completed between 26 February 2018 and 31 December 2018 (why am I only receiving this now?!).

Standard Chartered to reduce Cashback Cap on Grab Rides from May 2018 - from S$50 to S$30

I wrote about the possibility of getting 20% cashback on Grab rides with an eligible Standard Chartered credit card last week and speculated that the arrangement (which was previously forged with Uber prior to the merger) would be extended now that the Grab-Uber merger is on the horizon. While Standard Chartered appears to have extended this promotion up until July 2018, they have lowered the maximum amount of cashback that you can get each calendar month to SGD 30 (from SGD 50).

20% Cashback on Grab Rides with Standard Chartered - Capped at S$50 Cashback per Month

With the upcoming Grab-Uber merger on the horizon, Standard Chartered has now ported over this benefit to the Grab platform - eligible cardholders of eligible credit cards issued by Standard Chartered Bank (Singapore) Limited can now earn 20% cashback on the Grab App from 01 April 2018 to 30 April 2018 with a minimum spend of S$900 in total retail transaction.
