July’s Deals: Trading Apps, Wallet Apps, Credit Cards
We didn’t have a very good start to July, but some deals survived the end of June!
Extended welcome offers: Webull’s US$100 uSMART’s S$100
Get hundreds of dollars in free shares with Webull and uSMART! Simple requirements to fulfil, and these are great apps to invest with.
Last call for Friz: $20 + $5 + 1.75% cashback
It’s the last call for Friz before it gets nerfed to oblivion: get 1.75% instant cashback on things that normally don’t get you cashback. Insurance and education payments are two common transactions that most credit cards exclude rewards for, so this makes Friz very useful indeed.
New users get $20 when they accumulate $500 of spending, and there’s even a $5 reward for your first top up that is at least $10 or more.
Both cashback and new user rewards disappear after 7th July:
| Activity | Reward |
| Sign up here and use code WEE-wjcM4C | – |
| Spend S$500* or more (in one or multiple transactions); or Successfully apply for Friz credit line; or Get paid S$500 or more for invoices using Friz | S$20 |
| Optional: make your first top up of at least $10 | S$5 |
| Bonus: spend S$500* or more (in one or multiple transactions) | Stand a chance to win AirPods Max |
Notable card deals
UOB PRVI Miles is offering up to 21,000 miles for customers new to UOB cards who sign up and spend $1,500. Unlike UOB’s usual promos, this isn’t limited to the first few applicants per month.
UOB hasn’t really been active in card promos, so this is a good chance to pick up your first UOB card without the guesswork whether you qualify. You can apply here (or wait for an upcoming post where I break down the deal a little more).
