1. Annual Income: RM75k
2. Free Lifetime Annual Fee: A Must
3. Card required for:
a) auto deduction for donation, at RM50 per month
b) occasional lunch / dinner with colleagues / families when it exceeds 100bucks (i.e. less than 12 times a year)
c) occasional groceries and departmental shopping (i.e. guardian, jusco) usually with not more than 100bucks per transaction (i.e. less than 12 times a year)
d) major non-recurring transactions, i.e. air tickets, CPA Australia annual membership fee etc which is 1000k above for each transaction (i.e. once or twice a year)
I don't use the card for petrol as I don't drive - take public transport.
No monthly bills to settle via credit card..
4. Existing credit cards if any: HSBC Gold Card with 5.3k credit limit
5. Preferred Bank or Considering CC from banks: Maybank, PBB, HLB, HSBC.
6. Others:
a) I'm a bit confused whether I should opt for points card or cash bank, because if is cash back, i'm not sure if the transaction is entitled for cash back or not. Noticed that mainly cash back is only applicable for groceries and petrol and i don't usually spend the most during weekend.
b) I just want a card with good credit limit (if possible 10k above), so that in case emergency i can use the card for major transactions (i.e. downpayment for some major purchase, hospitalisation deposit etc); at the same time earn some good points / cash back.
7. Fixed expenses per month with the card:
There is only one fixed expense per month - RM50 per month donation
Fixed expense per year - RM1.8k for CPA Australia membership fee
8. Non-fixed expenses but recurring in RM:
Based on my spending habits, on average, the so called non-fixed but recurring expenses are about RM300 per month max.
Any advice?
