Why it can work
It combines complimentary airport lounge access, accelerated rewards on shoppers stop spends, and milestone rewards.
Where value may drop
Fuel, rent, and insurance don't earn rewards. Monthly reward caps apply on the top categories. The 3.5% forex markup is high for overseas use.

Best for / avoid if
Who this card suits — and who should skip it.
Best for Shoppers Stop Spends
7% Reward Points
Best for airport lounge access
24 complimentary lounge visits a year across domestic and international.
Avoid for heavy international use
A 3.5% forex markup is on the higher side for overseas spends.
Avoid if you spend big on fuel, rent, and insurance
These categories are excluded and won't earn rewards.
Avoid if you expect uncapped rewards
Top reward categories are capped each month, so very high spends don't scale linearly.
