Air Miles credit cards — FAQ
Which air miles credit card is best in Malaysia?
The best miles card depends on which airline programme you use and how much you spend. Compare the earn rate (miles per ringgit), the transfer partners, and travel perks like lounge access and travel insurance. Frequent travellers usually get the most value.
Are air miles worth more than cashback?
Miles can be worth more per ringgit than cashback — but only if you redeem them well, typically for premium-cabin flights. If you rarely fly or won't actively manage redemptions, a straightforward cashback card may give you better real-world value.
