Best Credit Card for NTUC FairPrice Singapore 2026

NTUC FairPrice is SG's largest supermarket chain. It's a top-3 spending category for most households, so the right card makes a real annual difference. FairPrice charges run under MCC 5411 (Grocery Stores) — qualifying for grocery-category bonuses across most SG cashback and miles cards. Watch the per-cycle caps; some cards bind at S$80/mo while others run uncapped if you select Groceries as a specific tier.
