If I use the same Citi Rewards card via Apple Pay, will it still give me 10X rewards without cap?

Or will it cap me at 1X rewards since I have spent close to S$12,000 already this membership year? If so, what’s the best alternative card to use?

It will cap you if you hit the S$12K.

I think you should use the Citi PremierMiles which would give you 4 miles per dollar during this promotion so long as the transaction is in SGD.

I had CPM and applied for CRV and it arrived after 3 days or so. Suspect that if you don't have CPM but do have CRV that you could apply and also get it quickly.
