UOB PRVI Miles World MasterCard Card

There is a new credit card in town for air miles accumulation and it currently has the same miles conversion rate as the UOB PRVI Miles Amex card. This means that it has the conversion rate of

$1 = 1.6 miles for local spending
$1 = 2.5 miles for overseas spending

The good thing about this card is that it is a MasterCard. This means that it will be accepted by more vendors when compared to the Amex card that UOB previously have.

Some differences between this and the UOB Prvi Miles Amex is that
  • this card does not have the Airport limousine transfer rebate that the UOB Amex offers.
  • it also does not gives 20,000 bonus miles if you spend more than $50,000 in a year.

For more information about this card, please check out the UOB website.
