haha, you are right because of your requirements and income bracket, UOB One Card is the one suits your needs.
Citibank Clear Card is good for movies, coffee bean, zouk and more of a lifestyle card but it is not a cash back card and therefore you have eliminated it yourself when you said you want only cash back card.
Choice Card? Why you would even want to consider it? Go for Clear Card at least you can get free movie tickets.

It is based on gross but annual income is not the only criteria. They also look into Nature of work, credit history and etc (=I don't know),

Aiyah , forget to mention Gross is before any deductions. Bro, don't worry, apply in 6 months time. In the meantime, go apply another card that is most convenient (the bank that you have savings account) to build up your credit history. After 1 year, if you pay promptly and have no outstanding, no BT, no late payment, it will be easier for you to get other cards.

OCBC Ti and Maybankard2Gold Card. You will never go wrong with these two cards. smile.gif
Many recommended and I have both, no regret till today. smile.gif

I cancelled all my other useless cards and only retain these two. smile.gif
