Hi
Jz gotten my new Affin Duo card. In light of new changes, I don't need to spend for my first statement. Since cashback is given based on previous statement? As a new user, i don't hv a previous statement.

I'm only targeting RM 50 for ewallet

Paying for the order at Shopee and Lazada with Duo Visa is considered online or e-wallet?

QUOTE(mamamia @ Dec 5 2022, 10:30 AM)
For Shopee bill payment (AirPay Malaysia), is it categorize as eWallet or Online for Affin DUO Visa? Anyone try b4?

Repost a similar question that was left unanswered.

I know that Public Bank Visa Signature consider direct payment to Lazada and Shopee as online. Similar case for ShopeePay Later bill payment. Thus, I'm wandering if it is the same for Affin duo visa.

If this is the first month (after approved and get the cash), so no cash back since no previous statement balance to refer to doh.gif am i right?

First month, u can get cash back up to RM 30 as it's considered previous statement as less than 3k

Is online paying cukai taksiran to local council considered as online transaction?
*
Better pay via PosOnline, PAM or Shopee.
I usually reload to e-wallet and pay using PAM

What is PAM? Is that the kiosk at pos office?
*
Yes, POS Automated Machine.
It has a long list of local councils. No need to pay processing fee at PAM.
If lazy to go or too far, just pay at PosOnline via e-wallet. Got 50cent in processing fee.

Trying to understand 3% Cash Back with AFFIN DUO Visa Cash Back.

To get RM30 Cash Back each month, I will need to spend at least 1k. So, for example, If I spend

-RM 200 on Misc expenses for the month

This means that I will then need to spend another RM800?

What's the best way to do this? Top up TnG 800? TnG will take RM8 (1% * RM800) and then transfer out this amount back to bank account? So technically, I would be getting RM22 nett Cash Back (RM30 - 8)
*
Presuming that your misc expenses are qualified for CB, yes, you will get RM 22 nett in cashback.

Alternatively, u can reload it to Boost or ShopeePay which don't have the 1% charges and spend it based on your habit.

Ok thanks, I looked at the site again https://www.affinalways.com/en/affin-duo. Looks like my Misc expenses won't be qualified. For me, seems this will probably be a card to be kept in my back pocket for the Occasional large Lazada/Shoppee Purchase.

A few more questions:

1. What qualifies as an Online Purchase? if I do monthly top-up my phone plan through the local app (Digi/Maxis/Celcom), is it considered online? Does patreon / twitch subscriptions count? Is there a list or definition that describes Online Purchase?

2. Is it still viable to Top up Ewallet for Cash Back and then Duitnow back into back account? with TnG 1% fee on reload, this means that it would still be possible to get Cash Back of at least RM20 per month for RM1k topup?

3. If I don't have a saving account with Affin, how can I check the CC Statement Balance? Do I need to download and set up the App on phone?
*
1. Look for thread regarding Mcc list. It'll help you. In general, if you pay online, it should be online purchase unless to go gov sites. Subscription is under autobiling if you chose for it to be auto deduct. Autobiling is also under this card benefit.

2. You can do it as long as the e-wallet provider allow it. Rules are getting tighter for withdrawal.

3. You can create an online account with your credit card. Don't need a savings account.

Is the annual fee for duo card is different for both card? I saw a transaction for visa 'Ann Fee Waiver' on Mar this year but master not yet charge.
*
when was your cards approved?
have your cards reached 3 complete year cycle?
First 3 years, MC remains inactive (unless u activated it) and only your Visa will get that message if you use it often enough.

I reloaded RM 3k into ShopeePay and called to convert to 0% 12 months. I wanted 6 months, but they only had 12 months for me. I was pleasantly surprised to get a cash back for this RM 3k. laugh.gif

yup, 6 months is for birthday month

Thanks for the reply. The thing is i dont hv their online banking as i am new to the bank. If anyone with experience can confirm, i can go to branch and open a SA for online banking and active my card then can apply BT. If not i dont need a SA for this bank. Not worth to pay rm12 for the annual fees. Hehe

you can have an online banking with your credit card account. For first time online banking creation, you need to go to branch to get some of activation code.

hi, i just got my BT approved today.. question is when is the 1st billing starts? is it after or before next statement date? Do i still need to spend rm3k for current cycle to meet the rm50 cb?
*
the first installement will appear on your next bill statement.
Hence, the installment amount is part of 3k amount required to qualify for the RM 50 CB

The bank rejected me 2 times. Is it hard to apply for an increase in credit limit?
*
i have requested credit limit increase every year for the past 3 years. Every year, I request for an increase of 5k.
To back the increase, my salary has increased due to change of job or promotion.
For me, it is not hard but the processing can be long from 1 week to 3 weeks.

You completed your 3-years cycle?
Any AF & SST charges on your inactive Mastercard?

my 3 years cycle did came up. Since many ppl in this forum reported that the card was automatically activated and they were charged with AF and SST, i activated the card a month earlier and swiped 12 times to avoid the AF. I paid the SST.
