The OCBC 90°N card was released to much fanfare last year. At its launch, it offered an unparalled 8 mpd for certain categories of travel-related spend. Even if you aren’t a miles person, that same 8 miles per dollar could be converted into a handsome 8% cashback rate. I cringe now, but my suggestion back then to book accommodation in advance to enjoy the high earn rate was entirely reasonable (I think). The card understandably faded into obscurity after the promotional launch period was over, but some quiet changes done by OCBC recently have made the 90°N quite interesting again. Travel$ is pretty versatile, and it’s getting a boost Outside of promotion periods, the card earns 6 Travel$ per $5 spent. You can exchange 1,000 Travel$ for 1,000 miles or $10 cash rebate. Each Travel$ is hence worth 1 mile or 1 cent, which means that the OCBC 90°N is essentially a 1.2 mpd mile card, or a 1.2% cashback card....
