OCBC 365 Credit Card is perfect if you spend regularly on essentials like groceries, dining, fuel and bills. You get up to 6% cashback across useful daily categories — but you’ll need to spend at least $800 a month to unlock the higher cashback rates. The monthly cashback cap is generous (up to $160 if you spend more), which makes this card ideal for families or those who use it as their main credit card.
DBS Live Fresh Card is a good pick for younger adults and digital-first users. It offers up to 6% cashback on online shopping and contactless payments (great for mobile wallet users), but has the lowest monthly cashback cap (6%) and also requires $800 spend per month.

However, the cashback is capped at $80 per month, so heavy spenders may find it limiting. Like OCBC 365, you’ll also need to spend $800 per month to get the best rates.
