Which gift to pick?
While the value of S$250 is clear, 20,000 Max Miles may be harder to evaluate for those who are unfamiliar with HeyMax.
One easy way to use Max Miles will redeeming them to offset the cost of any flight ticket you buy. 20,000 Max Miles would be S$360 for such a use case, so you just need to buy an air ticket of S$360 or less (or multiple cheaper air tickets) and redeem your Max Miles for money.
If you have a taste for business class travel, Max Miles can go to multiple airlines for flight redemption.
Another good use is also Accor Points. Each Max Mile can be converted into 1 Accor Live Limitless (ALL) point. Accor allows redemption of 2,000 ALL points for €40 which is around S$59.80. This means that each ALL point is worth 2.99 cents, in turn making 20,000 Max Miles a whopping S$598 if you use it to pay for your Accor hotel bookings.
In short, definitely take the Max Miles if you are willing to put in a little bit of effort to use them at higher valuations.
