โš ๏ธ Note: Possible Errors

When you tap the “Discover All 10 mpd Partners” button on the Kris+ app, it brings you to a list that includes Anthology, Cedele, Cherry and Oak, Cut Butchery, Dancing Crab, Kazo, Paris Baguette, and Toss & Turn

However, when you tap on these merchants, their earn rates have not been upsized to 10 mpd. Until we know better, I’m taking this as an error, and not including these names in the list above

No registration is necessary, and there is no cap on the maximum miles you can earn under this promotion. The upsized rates should already be reflected in the Kris+ by default at participating merchants. 

To earn miles at a Kris+ merchant, all you need to do is:

  1. Scan the merchant’s Kris+ QR code
  2. Enter the amount to be paid, and press “Pay” to pay via Apple/Google Pay

Don’t forget to transfer any KrisPay miles you earn to KrisFlyer within 21 days of the transaction, in their entirety. If you wait longer than 21 days, or spend any of the accrued miles, the balance will be stuck in Kris+ (where they expire after six months).

A big “Transfer to KrisFlyer” button appears after every transaction, so there’s no excuse!

Additional Birthday Bash deals

In addition to the upsized earn rates, some of these partners are offering additional perks for Kris+ users, including: 

  • Andersen’s of Denmark: 10% off total bill
  • Atelier Lounge: 15% off S$50 cash voucher
  • Birkenstock: 10% off regular priced items
  • Delibowl: 10% off total bill
  • Delsey Paris: 10% off total bill
  • Lao Beijing: 10% off S$50 and S$100 cash vouchers
  • Paradise Classic: 15% off S$30 cash voucher
  • Tsuta Japanese Dining: 10% off weekday dining
  • Victorinox: 10% off total bill

For the full list of deals, refer to the Kris+ app. 

What card should I use to pay?

Kris+ transactions code as online spend, and generally retain the same MCC as the underlying merchant (with some very limited exceptions).

The following cards are the safest to use, as they’re MCC-agnostic. So long as you transact on Kris+, you’ll earn up to 4 mpd, on top of the Kris+ miles.
