Does DBS bank offer LTF cards?

By having their bank accounts from long time. They are only offered as preapproved AFAIK. I got Spark 5 after holding the account for almost 7 years. Not sure of the exact number of years/months required to be eligible though.
But why the sudden interest? Are there any exclusive offers running on this card? I'm struggling to find any use for this one.

Want to add it to my collection yes offers are pretty rare.
 
@CreditCardFino DBS offers two types of core cards - Spark and Vantage.

Spark has three variants - Spark 5, 10, and 20.
Vantage also has three variants, although it is not heavily advertised.

Vantage is not available as a lifetime free (LTF) card and is available for Treasures account holders as Paid.

On the other hand, Spark can be LTF for specific cases, such as savings account holders or salary account holders.
I have seen they usually offer Spark5 or 10 as LTF. However, it is more difficult to get Spark 20 (even as a paid card).

Yes, I have gone thru DBS cards. For Spark 5 fee waiver spend 1.5L is insane 😒😱 For Bajaj its 50k but I want LTF. I have heard DBS account holders getting Spark 5. But not from non account holders. Maybe during festival season they might offer on third party apps.

I don't think it has anything to do with the duration of relationship with the bank, but rather depends on when the credit card team decides to roll out the cards. I opened a treasures account less than a year ago. From day one I was asking my RM about Vantage, but she said that they are not issuing even Spark currently to anyone. I kept check my eligibility on the portal about once a month. All of a sudden since last month it showed me eligible for Spark 5 LTF and Spark 10 & Spark 15 paid. Still not eligible for Vantage though. I asked my RM if I take and use the Spark card, will it improve my chances of getting the Vantage, but she said it's nothing like that. So I haven't taken the Spark yet. It's not really that lucrative compared to other cards in the market.
