SingSaver has launched a new set of welcome offers for Standard Chartered credit cards, which run from now till 1 October 2023.
New-to-bank applicants can enjoy up to S$380 cash, or gadget gifts such as Dyson Supersonic hair dryers or Nintendo Switch OLED consoles. There’s also an extra S$20 cash for making a S$20 transaction with Shopee, Lazada, Qoo10, Netflix and other selected merchants, and on top of it all, SingSaver is also giving away 20 Dyson Airwraps each day to the first 10 applicants at 12 p.m and 3 p.m daily.

If you don’t have any Standard Chartered cards just yet, this would be a great opportunity to hop onboard.

Applications for the following cards via any of the links in this article will be eligible for the offer.
| Card | Annual Fee | Welcome Gift |
 SCB Simply Cash CardApply |
S$194.40 (FYF) |

|
 SCB Rewards+ CardApply |
S$194.40 (FYF) |
|
| *An additional 10,000 miles can be earned for paying the first year’s annual fee, but I don’t feel it’s worth it. If you want to do so nonetheless, apply via this link instead | ||
All cards have a minimum income requirement of S$30,000 per year.
Applications must be received by 1 October 2023, and cards must be approved by 15 October 2023. Cardholders must activate their physical card in order to be eligible; activating the digital card alone is insufficient.
Win a Dyson Airwrap
If you plan to apply for a Standard Chartered credit card, you might want to time your application to coincide with SingSaver’s Dyson Airwrap giveaway.
From now till 1 October 2023, the first 10 customers to successfully apply for a Standard Chartered credit card at 12 p.m or 3 p.m daily will receive a Dyson Airwrap multi-styler (Complete) worth S$859, in addition to the gifts mentioned in the previous section.
If you’re outside the first 10, you’ll still receive the gifts mentioned in the previous section, so this isn’t an all or nothing kind of deal.
For more information on how SingSaver determines the fastest applicants for this offer, refer to this post.
Application steps
- Apply via 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 StanChart, this is in the format SGYYYYMMDDxxxxxx)

A minimum qualifying spend must be met for each card, as summarised below:
- SC Simply Cash Card: S$500 by 1 November 2023
- SC Smart/Rewards+ Card: S$250 by 1 November 2023

Qualifying spend includes all online and offline retail transactions, whether in SGD or foreign currency. It explicitly excludes transactions such as:
- Charitable donations
- Educational institutions
- Insurance premiums
- Payments to government bodies
- Prepaid account top-ups (e.g. GrabPay, YouTrip)
For the full list of exclusions, refer to pages 10-12 of the T&Cs.
Gift fulfilment
All gifts will be fulfilled within three months after SingSaver receives the bank’s report confirming the eligibility of applicants.
The winners of the Dyson Airwrap will be announced on SingSaver’s contest winners page by 31 March 2024.
Any enquiries about gift fulfillment should be sent to info@singsaver.com.sg
Terms & Conditions
Get an extra S$20 cash
All new Standard Chartered cardholders who meet the respective minimum spend and charge at least S$20 with Shopee, Lazada, Taobao, ezbuy, Qoo10, Carousell or Netflix within 30 days of approval will receive an extra S$20 cash (disbursed by PayNow).
This isn’t a particularly difficult task to fulfil; you could even buy a Qoo10 gift card and be done with it.
Conclusion
If you don’t have a Standard Chartered card yet, here’s an opportunity to pick up some guaranteed additional gifts when you sign-up, plus a shot at a Dyson Airwrap each day till 1 October 2023.
Don’t forget to fill out the SingSaver redemption form that will be sent to your email with your application reference number.
If you have difficulty meeting the minimum spend, my standard approach is to just buy NTUC or Cold Storage vouchers- things that I’ll end up spending sooner or later.
the journey card seems week on the singsaver gift – esp the choice of supersonic vs $120
Just completed the application for Journey card via the Singsaver link and just realised I did not have a choice between annual fee applied or annual fee waived, as is the case through the direct link to sc website…
singsaver has 2 different links, one for fee waiver and one for fee paying. the one in the main table is the fee waiver option. if you look at the footnote, there is an option for fee paying (which I don’t think is that good a deal)
Hey Aaron, both links seem to be identical. How do I tell that i’d be applying for the waiver option? Thanks
The url is different. That’s how they track.
edit: singsaver has updated the landing page so the offers are clearly stated as fee paying vs fee waiver
Hello, Getting confused about the 3K to be spent on the SC Journey within 60 days of approval: “Regardless of whether they pay the first year’s annual fee, cardholders will receive 35,000 bonus miles for spending at least S$3,000 in the first 60 days of approval. That’s the real headline here, as it represents an excellent return on your spend.” “Bonus miles are on top of the StanChart Journey Card’s regular earn rates of 1.2-3 mpd, so assuming you spend the full S$3,000 on local, non-bonused transactions, you’re looking at an additional 3,600 miles (S$3,000 @ 1.2 mpd), for an… Read more »
And I also discovered there is a 5mpd bonus (on top of the 3mpd and the new to bank customer bonus miles ??)
