Premium credit cards have long promised luxurious experiences, offering access to priority perks and enviable rewards. But what if a card could deliver real, personal value instead, and fit seamlessly into your life, no matter where you are in the world?   

Enter the DCS Imperium World Elite Card. The sleek new offering, available as a metal, contactless card, caters to those who desire the ability to live with intention, offering best-in-class rewards – from miles to securing coveted tables at Michelin-starred establishments and Asia’s 50 Best Restaurants – and always with your safety and wellbeing in mind, so that every occasion is curated precisely the way you like it.

Premium services and rewards that matter

While high earn rates are expected of premium credit cards, the DCS Imperium takes hoops and caveats out of the equation. Mr Lionel Lee, Senior Managing Director, Consumer & Commercial Cards, DCS Card Centre says, “We offer one of the highest miles earn rates in Singapore, awarding four miles for each dollar spent overseas with a minimum spend of S$4,000 in foreign currency.” Together with a convenient and straightforward redemption structure, converting daily spends into meaningful rewards is effortless. 

For Mr Eric Goh, managing partner of a real estate company, this seamless experience has been a highlight of his cardholder experience. 

“The miles add up quickly, and I love how easy it is to redeem them for things I really value – whether it’s booking a limo to the airport, or getting invites to exclusive events such as World of Wines & Spirits (WOWS) by Changi Airport, a dining event where we had a meet and greet experience with F1 driver Zhou Guanyu,” he explains.   

Luxurious upgrades can elevate all the important moments in life, but having ease of mind while doing so is equally priceless. To help take care of life’s exigencies, the DCS Imperium has partnered security company Crisis24 to provide 24/7 priority crisis services when needed. This includes travel advisories, real-time alerts, security and medical assistance and emergency response. 

For those who frequently travel to high-risk areas for business purposes, tailored personal security solutions are an option.

Thoughtful security choices are also available locally. DCS Imperium cardholders get access to an exclusive secured box service, where they can safekeep valuables such as gold, precious paintings and more. 

And in the true spirit of personalisation, the DCS Imperium offers the option of personalising the last four digits of your card number. It’s a subtle touch, but one that speaks to clients who prefer the understated over the flashy. 

“With its personalised number, my DCS Imperium card not only supports ease of recall, but also feels extra special to carry around,” says Mr Lim Ming How, head of wealth management at a fund management company.

Making moments count – your way

As you would expect from a premium card of this calibre, a dedicated lifestyle concierge hotline is always on hand to ensure a fuss-free transition from work to play – whether it means making booking limousine transfers to the airport and tables at sought-after restaurants and bars; getting a hold of hard-to-get concert tickets; or accessing some of the world’s most popular golf courses.

Mr Xu Haili, managing director of a global trading enterprise, appreciates the white-glove support provided by the DCS Concierge. 

“One of the standout moments was booking a limo to the airport and enquiring on recommendations for my overseas trip. The process was seamless, and the service was exceptional, making the trip completely hassle-free,” he says.

Mr Lim Ming How echoes this sentiment. On his recent trip to Bangkok, the Imperium concierge team not only helped him to book a limo, but went beyond that to recommend some of the city’s best cocktail bars and Instagrammable cafes.

This flexibility of choice, together with the thoughtfully curated list of privileges and rewards for DCS Imperium cardholders, represents the card’s commitment to delivering exclusive benefits that truly speak to those who appreciate the intangibles, says Mr Lionel Lee.

He adds, “This card is available by invitation only. But for those who know what should and shouldn’t come with a card of this calibre, who prefer understated sophistication over gimmicks – the DCS Imperium is a perfect match.”
