KrisFlyer credit card transfer partners

Capital One miles credit cards

Venture miles and Spark miles earned with Capital One's credit cards can be converted into KrisFlyer miles at a 1:1 ratio. This means every 1,000 Capital One miles you transfer will give you 1,000 KrisFlyer miles.

Venture Rewards and Spark Rewards credit cards earn miles at a flat-rate across all purchases along with bonus miles when booking travel through Capital One Travel. That makes these cards a great option if you're looking for a single credit card for all of your purchases versus trying to max and min using a handful of different cards.

Here are our favorite Capital One miles credit cards for earning KrisFlyer miles:

AMEX Membership Rewards credit cards

American Express Membership Rewards Points can be transferred directly to Singapore KrisFlyer at a 1:1 ratio. This means that 1,000 AMEX Points can be converted to 1,000 KrisFlyer Miles.

American Express offers a handful of Membership Rewards credit cards that you can use to quickly earn lots of KrisFlyer miles via high intro bonuses and everyday spending across categories such as restaurant, supermarket, and gas.

Here's a few of the best credit card offers for earning Membership Rewards points transferable to KrisFlyer miles:

Chase Ultimate Rewards credit cards

Chase offers three Ultimate Rewards credit cards that you can use to earn points transferable to Singapore KrisFlyer at a 1:1 ratio. This means every 1,000 Chase points you transfer would give you 1,000 KrisFlyer miles.

One of the best things about these cards is that points can be redeemed for 1.25 to 1.5 cents apiece towards travel booked through the Chase Travel portal. This gives you an easy alternative route to redeeming your points for high value when you can't find worth award space with Singapore or any of Chase's other travel partners.

Here are the Ultimate Rewards credit cards that allow you to transfer points to Singapore KrisFlyer:

Citi ThankYou Rewards credit cards

If you have the Citi Strata Premier℠ Card or Citi Prestige Card, you will be able to convert your Citi ThankYou points into KrisFlyer miles at a 1,000 points for 1,000 miles ratio.

You can pair the Citi Strata Premier Card with the Citi® Double Cash Card to earn the equivalent of 2X to 3X KrisFlyer miles on every purchase. You can then take it a few steps further by also adding the Citi Rewards+® Card and Citi Custom Cash℠ to maximize your earnings.
