From 21-27 November 2022, CIMB is offering S$350 cash or a Dyson AM07 fan for new-to-bank credit card sign-ups.
This is the biggest offer we’ve ever seen, even better than last month’s S$330 cash (which was already very good to begin with).

|
| *New-to-bank customers are defined as those who do not currently hold a principal CIMB card, and did not previously have a principal CIMB card that was closed in the past 12 months. Debit cards, supplementary cards and corporate cards do not count. |
A minimum spend of at least S$988 within 60 days of approval is required.
Which CIMB cards are eligible?
Applications for the following cards via any of the links in this article will be eligible for the offer.
| Card | Income Req. | Annual Fee |
 CIMB Visa SignatureApply |
S$30K | None |
 CIMB World MastercardApply |
S$30K | None |
 CIMB Visa InfiniteApply |
S$120K | None |
All CIMB cards are free for life for both principal and supplementary cardholders.
Applications must be received by 27 November 2022 and cards must be approved by 12 December 2022. Be sure to monitor your inbox for any emails from CIMB; based on my experience last month they may require additional documentation, and delayed submission will affect your approval date and hence eligibility for the offer.
Once again, take note that this promotion is for new-to-bank customers only; existing customers will not receive any gift.
The full T&Cs can be found here.
Application Steps
- Apply through any of the links in this article
- You will be directed to a SingSaver landing page. Enter your email address and click “confirm”
- Complete your application and take a screenshot of the Application Reference Number (for CIMB, this is 8 alphanumeric characters, e.g 1-xxxxxxx)
- Fill in the SingSaver rewards form that will be sent to your email. It’s vital you fill in the form. No form, no reward.
You’ll be able to indicate your choice of gift in the rewards form if applicable.
Qualifying Spend
The approved card must be activated and a minimum qualifying spend of S$988 charged in the first 60 days from approval.
Qualifying spend excludes the following:
- Amaze transactions
- Charitable donations
- Education expenses
- Government transaction
- GrabPay top-ups
- Insurance premiums
- Utilities
The full list of exclusions can be found in the T&Cs.
Gift Fulfillment
Gifts will be fulfilled by SingSaver within four months of meeting the qualifying criteria. The reason for the long delay is the need to confirm the qualifying criteria with the bank. If you’re not comfortable with this timeline, please don’t apply; you’re just going to get annoyed with the wait.
Cash gifts will be fulfilled by PayNow, while merchandise will need to be collected at a specified redemption centre.
Any enquiries about gift fulfillment should be sent to info@singsaver.com.sg
Conclusion
CIMB cards may not be something a miles chaser uses for everyday spending, but I find it hard to argue with a S$350 cash rebate on a minimum spend of S$988.
Don’t forget to apply via the correct links and fill up the rewards redemption form in order for your gift to be processed correctly.
How long do we have to hold the car for?
until you get your $350 at least. haha
no annual fees anyway
Usually best to hold for 1 year then cancel. Avoids them blacklisting you for “churning” cards.
problem getting linked from SingSaver to CIMB to apply (for the CIMB World MasterCard)…
I did the visa signature application and it went through ok. What happened with world MC?
page at cimb didn’t load after choosing SingPass MyInfo, then pop up saying “An error has occurred retrieving your information from MyInfo. Please try again later.” after awhile.
page loaded after a number of tries… but can’t continue again, somehow my name, which is automatically inserted, keeps getting flagged and coz of that, I can start the application process…
received a ton of SingSaver emails coz of many tries (coz need to fill in email at singsaver’s end). I think I will use the manual sign up instead of using myinfo
tried manual instead of singpass myinfo apparently my full name exceeded the characters limit… what a joke…
“Please enter your full name (as per NRIC/passport).
Maximum characters exceeded. Please call +65 6333 7777 for assistance.”
give up…
I dont know why but BOC came to mind
Does Cardup transactions qualifies as qualifying spends?
likely not. https://www.cimb.com.sg/content/dam/cimbsg/personal/document/tnc/cards/credit-card/conventional/world-platinum-mastercard-faq.pdf
Thank you sir
Is this for Singapore Citizens and PR only? getting this an error message when trying to apply.
Is this deal still on? At the singsale page where they ask me to key in my email and click ‘confirm’, nothing happens after that.
Hi, wanted to ask on the eligibility. I saw that the card has to be approved by 14 Nov to qualify, and applied before the end of Oct. However, CIMB just approved my card yesterday, 23 Nov. Do you know if I’d still be eligible for the promo reward if I spend the min. requirement still even though my card was approved after the approval date? Thanks!
where got 14 nov?
Under the T&C doc there’s a date that the card has to be approved by
How long did it take for approval? Nearly a week and still nothing.
I applied Nov 21, just got approved today.
applied on 24th and till now still nothing.
what happen if no news by 12th Dec?
means this promotion will be invalid?
Applied on 27th no news today from CIMB already 12th dec. I guess that’s it wasted on try
got approved today.
dun know whether it still accounts?
if not then i cannot even apply another credit card since not the new user anymore
Applied for the CIMB World Mastercard through SingSaver on this promo period and clocked most of the $988 spend (around $900) on my overseas trip with the card tagged to amaze/instarem, mainly on food, taxi and hotel. However, CIMB came back to say that the spend was not eligible for the minimum spend towards the $988! How unfortunate.
