Earn up to 11 mpd on Pelago bookings for July 2026

From now till 2 August 2026, earn an extra 7 mpd on Pelago bookings via Kris+, stackable with up to 4 mpd from credit cards.

Pelago joined Kris+ in October 2024, enabling users of Singapore Airlines’ lifestyle app to earn bonus miles on attractions, activities, tours, eSIMs and transportation worldwide. The usual earn rate for Pelago bookings made through Kris+ is 3 mpd, but is regularly enhanced through monthly promotions.

This month’s offer is now live — from now till 2 August 2026, all bookings will earn 7 mpd. This is further stackable with credit card miles of up to 4 mpd, for an overall earn rate of up to 11 mpd. 

However, this is notably less generous than last month’s offer — and if your booking is of a certain size, you should definitely explore the alternative “triple stack” opportunity that ShopBack is running, which offers cashback of up to 20%, 1,500 bonus miles, and up to 7 mpd.

Kris+ offering 7 mpd on Pelago bookings

From 1 July to 2 August 2026, all Pelago bookings made via the Kris+ app will earn a bonus 7 mpd, on top of credit card miles.

While the booking must be made during this period, the experience can be for any future date. Therefore, you can make your bookings now to lock in the earn rate, but remember: from 1 August 2025, Kris+ no longer offers instant miles crediting for Pelago bookings. Instead, miles will be credited one day after the activity is completed, so you won’t be able to use this as a quick way of topping up a KrisFlyer account.

To make Pelago bookings via Kris+, update your app to the latest version, then look for the Pelago icon at the top of the screen. This will send you to the Pelago website, where you’ll select your activity and make payment through the Kris+ app.

The bonus rate is applicable to anything you can find on Pelago, whether it’s tours, attraction tickets, eSIMs, spa treatments, airport transfers, bus tickets, train tickets and more. 

Here’s a summary of the differences between booking Pelago activities via Kris+, versus the mobile app or website.

  Kris+ Website or Mobile App
Earn Rate 7 mpd# 3 mpd
+1,500 miles
Code: PEL1500
Maximum Per Booking None^ 50,000 miles
Miles Credited 1 day after activity completion 7 days after activity completion
Promo Codes Yes (PNR discount only) Yes
HeyMax / ShopBack No Yes (website only)*
#Promotional rate that changes every month
^The maximum payment that can be made via Kris+ is capped at S$20,000 per day
*Promo codes cannot be stacked with HeyMax or ShopBack. Using a promo code will result in your Max Miles or cashback failing to track

It’s worth noting that from now till 19 July 2026, ShopBack customers can use the promo code PEL1500 to earn 1,500 bonus miles with a minimum spend of S$100. 

  • The minimum spend must be in a single transaction, though it can consist of multiple activities, thanks to Pelago’s shopping cart feature
  • One redemption per customer, for the entire promo period
  • Activity can be for any future date
  • Bonus miles will be credited within seven days after activity completion

If you’re spending S$375 or less, earning 3 mpd and a flat bonus of 1,500 miles would be better than earning 7 mpd through Kris+ (either way, the credit card miles will be the same) — and that’s before taking into account the cashback from ShopBack, which can be up to 20% for certain attractions.

Remember to transfer your miles!

Don’t forget to transfer any KrisPay miles earned 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+. Miles in Kris+ expire after six months, and can only be spent at a relatively poor rate of 100 miles = S$1.

A big “Transfer to KrisFlyer” button appears after every transaction, so there’s no excuse! Alternatively, you can activate the new Kris+ auto-transfer feature, which ensures that any miles earned are automatically transferred to your KrisFlyer account.

This can be found by tapping on Wallet >Transfer to KrisFlyer. Tap the button, and any KrisPay miles earned through Kris+ will be automatically transferred to KrisFlyer, removing the possibility of forgetting.

If you’re not insistent on exclusively earning KrisFlyer miles, the HeyMax alternative is worth exploring too.

HeyMax is currently offering 2-6 Max Miles per S$1 for Pelago website bookings, which can be stacked with the regular 3 KrisFlyer miles per S$1 and up to 4 mpd from the right credit card.

The catch, if you want to call it that, is that Max Miles cannot be converted into KrisFlyer miles. Indirect conversions via yuu Rewards Club are possible, but the rate is not very attractive under normal circumstances.

But I really see this as a feature, not a bug, since HeyMax offers 20 transfer partners, almost all of which offer 1:1 conversions without any fees. Why settle for KrisFlyer?

What card to use with Pelago?

Pelago transactions made on Kris+ will code as MCC 4722 Travel Agencies and Tour Operators, so you can pay with the following cards to earn up to an additional 4 mpd.

4 mpd Max S$1K per calendar month

Avoid using the Citi Rewards Card, as MCC 4722 is classified as a travel transaction and explicitly excluded from earning the bonus 4 mpd rate for online transactions.

Also, the HSBC Revolution is no longer an option, following the January 2024 removal of MCC 4722 from its bonus whitelist.

Conclusion

Kris+ has unveiled its latest offer for Pelago bookings, which offers 7 mpd until 2 August 2026.  This is further stackable with credit card miles of up to 4 mpd for a total earn rate of up to 11 mpd.

However, for transactions of S$375 or less, using the ongoing Pelago x ShopBack triple stack opportunity would be more worthwhile, so be sure to check that out too.

Remember: the actual experience can take place later, so if there’s something that interests you, consider locking it in now to secure the miles.
