Disclaimer: My bias towards CardUp is real, especially given how it has been a fail-proof solution for me for the last 8 years. But here’s how the other options to get miles while paying your taxes to IRAS currently stack up anyway, and how you can decide for yourself.
When it comes to paying your income taxes, the default method is for IRAS to deduct these payments via GIRO through your bank account. However, this default method isn’t going to get you miles. So if you have a sizeable tax bill (at least 4 digits) and want to get a significant amount of miles for paying your income taxes, you’d want to be smarter and route it through a third-party payment processor.
You can either use an independent service such as CardUp, or a bank payment facility i.e. Citi PayAll, SC EasyBill or UOB Payment Facility. This post compares these options so you can decide what works best for you....
