Good to know

Pick 5 of Maybank's 10 categories in the Maybank TREATS SG app; picks start the next month and lock for 3 months. Set the same ones here. Defaults if you never pick: Automotive, Dining & Food Delivery, Kids & Pets, Online Shopping, Telco & Streaming.

6% needs S$800 of eligible spend in the calendar month; 8% needs S$1,600. Groceries stays at 6% even at S$1,600+.

Maybank's Automotive is shown as Petrol (also covers EV charging and car servicing); Commute is shown as Transport (includes Grab and Gojek). Kids & Pets, Sports and Telco & Streaming aren't in Cardinko's categories.

Bonus up to 8% on Malaysian Ringgit and Indonesian Rupiah spend (MYR & IDR bonus category, own cap); Cardinko can't tell currencies apart, so this isn't modelled.

Minimum spend is counted by posting date, not transaction date. 0.3% cashback on AXS bill payments is not modelled.

Caps are per chosen category each month: S$20 at 6%, S$30 at 8%.
