Modelling assumptions

S$300 Giant as MCC 5411 groceries (same model as FairPrice / Cold Storage).

Modelled as S$300 spend at this merchant in one calendar/statement month (unless noted).
Miles valued at illustrative S$0.014 each for ranking only (same as calculator).
UOB One: assume qualifying Tier ≥ S$1,000/mo + ≥10 txns (additional Grab/McD/Shopee/SimplyGo 5%, grocery add-on 2.67%) unless the merchant needs Tier 3 (Shell).
HSBC Revolution: standard bonus-points cap (9,000/mo), not Everyday Global ADB boost.
UOB Lady's: preferred-category bonus only when the merchant plausibly maps to Dining or Shopping; otherwise base 0.4 mpd.
SC Smart: when merchant is a listed bonus merchant, assume monthly eligible spend ≥ S$800 (8% bonus tier); otherwise other-eligible rate.
Transaction-block rounding (per S$5 / S$10) ignored. Caps applied where verified.
MCC codes are typical industry codes — issuers may code a merchant differently; always check your statement.
