Heymax and Visa launch campaign to reward Singapore’s public transport commuters

Heymax x Visa Campaign

Want to earn miles for your daily commute with Heymax and Visa?

Heymax, a lifestyle rewards app based in Singapore, has teamed up with Visa to launch a new campaign focused on sustainability.

From now until 28 November 2024, Heymax users can earn rewards just for taking public transit. 

Commuters who link their Visa card to the Heymax app will receive three Max Miles for every dollar spent on MRT or bus rides.

This small reward adds up over time, while also encouraging greener travel choices.

Riders can accumulate miles with every trip, bringing them closer to prizes like business class flights to Japan worth 200,000 miles.

Bus MRT for Visa

Joe Lu, Heymax CEO, noted that they are seeing a growing passion among Singaporeans to travel free using loyalty points.

While the miles can fund future adventures, the core goal is to nurture sustainable habits daily, he added.

By incentivizing public transport, Heymax aims to balance promoting local green actions with global travel experiences for members.

Research shows Singaporeans increasingly rely on loyalty programs for travel rewards and Heymax data found Agoda, Trip.com, Klook, and Singapore Airlines to be top merchants.

The loyalty market is projected to grow almost 10% annually through 2028.

This campaign also complements Singapore’s $60 billion public transport investment by 2030.

“From MRT & Bus to Miles: Heymax & Visa Reward Your Rides” Campaign T&Cs

General

  • The campaign runs until a total of 2 million Max Miles are earned across all Heymax users.
  • There’s no limit on how many Max Miles each user can earn. Miles from bus or train rides will be pending until transactions are approved and then added to your account.
  • New users who link a Visa card for the first time during the campaign get a bonus of 100 Max Miles.

Grand Prize Drawing

To enter the drawing to win big prizes:

  • Take at least one bus or train ride with your linked card during the campaign
  • Keep a card linked through the end of the campaign

Two lucky winners will be selected randomly from eligible users. The more you transit, the better your chances of winning!

Winners will be announced after the campaign ends and contacted by email.
