The OCBC Titanium Rewards card normally gives 4 mpd on online and offline shopping (clothes, bags, shoes, electronics, department stores), personal care and mobile payments.
If youโre holding on to an OCBC Titanium Rewards card, you may have received the following SMS :
<ADV> OCBC Titanium Rewards: Want to earn 10 OCBC$ (worth 4 Miles) for every dollar spent on dining? Just charge any 5 transactions to your card. Till 9 February 2018. Visit bit.ly/2lJL61K for details and T&Cs. Questions? Call 1800 363 3333. To unsubscribe, SMS unsub to 76062.
From now till 9 Feb, Titanium Rewards cardholders can earn 4 mpd on dining by making any 5 transactions to their card (online or offline). โTransactionsโ is just about anything, with the usual exceptions of โannual card fees, Cash-On-Instalment IPP, extended payment plan, income tax payment, bill payments made via Internet Banking, bill payments made
via AXS, interest, late payment charges, goods and services taxes, cash advances, balance transfers and other fees and charges incurred on the OCBC Titanium Rewards Cardโ
You can earn 4 mpd on dining at any merchant with the following MCC
- 5811 (Caterers)
- 5812 (Restaurants and eating places)
- 5814 (Fast food restaurants)
In case you were wondering what happened to 5813, 5813 is for Bars, Cocktail Lounges, Discotheques, Nightclubs and TavernsโDrinking Places (Alcoholic Beverages). You wonโt earn 4 mpd here under this promotion.
The T&C donโt specify any cap on this, and OCBC have confirmed with me that there isnโt any. That means that spending under this promotion wonโt count towards the annual 120,000 OCBC$ ($12K @ 10 X/4 mpd ) cap. So mark this as a great promotion, especially if you donโt have a UOB Preferred Platinum AMEX. Even if you donโt intend to spend big on dining before 9 Feb, you might want to consider buying dining gift vouchers wherever theyโre available in restaurants to โlock inโ your 4 mpd.
Unfortunately, this promotion does not stack with the ongoing 10X promotion on mobile payments. Thatโs to say, you will not earn 20X points when you dine at a restaurant and pay through your mobile payments app + Titanium Rewards card. You can read the full T&C here.
If you, like me, werenโt targeted, take some comfort in the fact that a large number of restaurants which accept credit cards should have updated their POS terminals by now to accept contactless/mobile payments, so by linking your Titanium Rewards card to your Android/Samsung/Apple pay account you should still be able to earn 4 mpd on dining.
