Programme eligibility and exclusions

The calculator uses the Visa Signature caps and assumes successful 2026 registration. Expand for transaction details.

How the calculator applies the programme

  • Registration via DBS Card+ is required once for each applicable card. Registration during 2026 takes effect from the next calendar day.
  • The four 5% categories share an HKD 8,000 monthly cap. Each designated transaction must be at least HKD 300; smaller transactions belong under Other Retail.
  • The first HKD 5,000 of electronic-wallet retail spending can earn rewards and also forms part of the HKD 20,000 Other Retail cap. Further electronic-wallet spending earns no reward.
  • Amounts above either enhanced-rate cap earn the 0.4% basic reward. The calculator uses monthly spending totals and cannot reproduce transaction-level posting order or rounding.

Designated-category exclusions

  • Dining excludes banquets, private parties or events, and food or drink supplied by outlets or counters in hotels, department stores, associations or clubhouses.
  • Medical services exclude veterinary spending.
  • DBS classifies categories using Visa or acquiring-bank merchant codes.

Not eligible for this programme

  • Octopus Automatic Add-Value Service.
  • Card Interest-free Instalment Loans, Credit Card Interest-free Merchant Instalment Plans, Call-a-loan, Balance Transfer, Funds Transfer and Flexi Shopping transactions or repayments.
  • Fund purchases, cash advances and related fees, casino chips, and foreign-exchange transactions.
  • Finance charges, late charges and credit card annual fees.
  • Overseas point-of-sale transactions settled in Hong Kong dollars, including online transactions where the merchant is registered or settled outside Hong Kong.
  • Insurance payments, tax payments, bill payments and fund transfers.
  • Cancelled, reversed, charged-back, returned or refunded transactions, and other transaction types DBS designates as ineligible.

The DBS Eminent Visa Signature Card is designed for health-conscious spenders and regular diners, offering 5% cashback on four Designated Categories: Dining, Sportswear, Fitness Clubs, and Medical Services. Each transaction must be HK$300 or more to qualify for the 5% rate. Other retail spending including online purchases, foreign currency transactions, and groceries earns 1%, while spending above the caps falls to a 0.4% base rate. The monthly caps are reasonably generous, with the 5% rate applying to the first HK$8,000 combined across all four designated categories and 1% applying to the first HK$20,000 of other retail, including up to HK$5,000 of e-wallet spending. Spending above either enhanced-rate cap earns the 0.4% basic reward, while e-wallet spending above HK$5,000 earns no reward. There are some notable exclusions to be aware of: dining does not include banquets, private parties, or food and beverage at hotels, department stores, and clubhouses, while medical excludes veterinary services. Registration via DBS Card+ is required again for the 2026 programme.
