Best credit card to top-up E-Wallet in Malaysia for end of year 2020

 As Covid-19 pandemic hit worldwide and making everyone try to reduce contact while doing purchase at store. Contactless credit card and e-wallet has been practicing widely common in Malaysia these days.

But why use e-wallet instead of credit card itself?

Because every e-wallets is running their own promotion where use will get some form of benefit if keep using it. Example Boost wallet collecting coins where you can redeem vouchers. Touch n Go wallet also giving cash voucher if you use on their promotion time.

Imagine on top of the benefits from the every e-wallet, you can get extra cashback if you top-up our e-wallet with cashback credit card. Isn't it consider better deal to use e-wallet which is more widely accepted compare credit card in retail stores?
