The fine print, decoded
The catches most people miss on the Alliance Bank You:nique Gold Card, in plain language — so nobody gets caught out. Always confirm against the official terms.
- What's excluded
- Instalment Payment Plan (IPP), Flexi Payment Plan (FPP), Cash Advance, Balance Transfer, Fast Cash, Finance Charges, Late Charges, Annual Fees, and Reversed/Disputed/Split/Void transactions do not earn cashback — per the official PDS's Cashback Programme clause (named 'You:nique Rebates' in the PDS, Alliance's internal name for this product per this repo's existing foreignTxFee sourcing).
- How the cap works
- Official product page states the up-to-3% cashback applies with 'no restrictions on petrol, groceries, or specific merchants,' but publishes no explicit RM cap figure — could not confirm an exact cap or its absence from a PDS-level source this pass.
- Foreign transaction fee
- Visa/Mastercard's own conversion rate and charges, plus a 1% foreign-exchange conversion spread levied by Alliance Bank — per the official PDS's 'Overseas Transaction Conversion Fee' row for 'Other Credit Cards' (You:nique Gold is a Mastercard product, not the separately-priced Visa Basic card).
