Free Apple AirPods Pro For New Standard Chartered Customers - Sign-Up for a Free Card, Cancel It After and Keep Your Loot (Last 2 Days!)
There only two days left which means you will really have to act quickly if you would like to pick up a pair of Apple AirPods Pro (worth S$379!) for free. In order to qualify for this, you will have to apply for an eligible Standard Chartered Credit Card as a new-to-card customer and be amongst the first 100 approved applicants each day (from 9:00 AM) - more information below so make sure you follow the steps carefully.
1. Be a Standard Chartered New-to-Card Customer
You will need to be an eligible new-to-card customer so you must not currently be a principal cardholder of any Standard Chartered cards. Additionally, you must not have held any Standard Chartered cards as a principal cardholder in the last 12 months.
2. Apply for the Standard Chartered Unlimited Credit Card (Free for 2 Years)
Apply for any Standard Chartered Credit Cards listed on this article to get the Apple AirPods Pro for free. If you do not know which one to apply for, get the Standard Chartered Unlimited Credit Card as it gives you a fixed 1.5% cashback and the annual fee is waived for the first two years. Remember to apply and submit the Redemption Rewards Form (more information below) after 9:00 AM each day.
3. Pre-fill Application with MyInfo
When applying for a new Standard Chartered Credit Card, make sure to pre-fill your application using MyInfo on the second page. At the end of your application, be sure to take down the Application Reference Number.
4. Complete the Redemption Reward Form
When you click on the link to apply for the Standard Chartered Unlimited Credit Card, you will have to enter your email address before being redirected to the actual application - check your email inbox for the redemption rewards form that you will have to submit. Enter the Application Reference Number that you got from Step 3 above to complete the process.
5. Enjoy Free Apple AirPods Pro or S$200 Cash
Finally, if you are amongst the first 100 approved new-to-card customers for the next two days, you will get a free pair of Apple AirPods Pro (which will be perfect for your home workout routine)! If you are a little too slow, don't worry as you will still receive S$200 cash reward transferred into your bank account via PayNow (not a bad consolation prize after all!).
There are three different credit cards that you can apply for this promotion but I personally recommend the Standard Chartered Unlimited Credit Card if you do not care about credit cards and simply want the free pair of Apple AirPods Pro. If you were to apply for the Standard Chartered Unlimited Credit Card, the annual fees for the first two years are waived and you can cancel the card after the first year to avoid incurring any costs. These are the other two credit cards which you may also wish to consider:
Standard Chartered Rewards+ Credit Card - up to 2.9 miles per dollar but very low cap on maximum earn rate.
Standard Chartered Spree Credit Card - get up to 3% cashback (capped at S$60) each month for select spend categories.
Probably the best sign-up offer for Citi Credit Cards - get S$400 cash reward with minimum spend of S$500 within 30 days for new customers.
