⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️Tiger Boss Debit Card: Well-designed Card & App👍


I thought I applied for Tiger Boss Debit Card "blindly", not because I am unaware of the perks it offers(Fractional Shares!) or the fees it is going to charge (no Annual Fee!), but because I do not exactly know how the Debit Card section of Tiger's App is going to work and function.

After activating my debit card, I was pleasantly surprised by the sleek one-page Tiger Boss Debit Card within the App. There are several thoughtful and useful features that I have always like to see, be it for Credit cards, Debit cards, or e-Wallets apps. Here's what I love about Tiger Boss Debit Card/App:


(1) As can be seen in my screenshot of Tiger Boss, "Card Details" can easily be retrieved. I will simply copy the 16-digit long Visa debit card number, and I will usually just try to memorize the expiry date and three digit security code(CVV). The "Card PIN" is a 4-digit PIN, that is required when using overseas ATM.


(2) Top-up is very convenient, because you can link your other bank savings account via DDA (which Tiger users could have already linked, for their routine Tiger trade fundings). And Tiger presently allows DDA linkages to many banks such as DBS, UOB, OCBC, Maybank, SCB, HSBC.

The $5 bonus was credited quickly to me, one day after I made my first eligible online spending (i.e. Lazada).


(3) Cashback is very thoughtfully tracked. As can be seen in my screenshot, my cashback is $0.8232 (four decimal places). This means a $0.01 eligible spending can also be tracked (i.e. 1% of $0.01 = $0.0001), since it allows up to four decimal places.

I will need to accumulate at least $1.0000 cashback (on T+0), and the system will award the fractional shares on T+1.


(4) Transaction History tracks quickly and accurately. User can click into each transaction to see more info., such as the classification of your spending (for example, Lazada is classified as "Department Stores"). Your Top-Up and "Clear Out"(meaning transfer of funds from your BOSS Debit card account to Tiger Prime account) will also be listed in transaction history. Also, "Declined" spending (due to insufficient fund) will also be listed (thankfully, no fee was imposed for my declined payment because I forgotten to fund my debit card account).


(5) Manage Card easily with features such as temporary locking the Boss Debit Card, and adjusting your daily, monthly transaction limits. Importantly, here, you can also "Clear card balance", meaning transfer your debit card account balance to your Tiger Prime trading account. You can also permanently block your card, and re-order a new one.


🔴Important choice you have to make during signing up: You will be asked to choose between a Digital Card or Physical Card. If you picked "Digital Card", you will NOT receive a physical card. If you picked "Physical Card", you will get both a physical card AND digital card (the digital card will be paired with the physical card).
