Max Miles to Airline Miles
HeyMax Max Miles is a non-bank rewards currency you earn across the credit cards you already hold, then convert to a partner list of airline programmes at 1:1 with no per-transfer fee. It is not a credit-card-issuing bank, which is why its mechanics — a platform-set partner list, free transfers, optional membership tiers — differ from the bank pages.
HeyMax at a glance
- Transfer fee
- No per-transfer fee, no expiry, no blackout dates. Earning and transferring Max Miles is free.
- Annual fee
- Earning Max Miles and transferring them to airline partners is free. HeyMax First, a separate "fly now, earn later" miles-advance product, has paid tiers (Gold S$299/yr, Platinum S$699/yr, Reserve S$1,999/yr; Silver is free) — these are optional and unrelated to transfers.
- Partner list
- Max Miles transfer 1:1 to HeyMax’s Direct Transfer Partner list (Asia Miles, Avios via Qatar Privilege Club, Flying Blue, EVA Air, and others). The partner list is set by HeyMax, not by your credit-card-issuing bank, and differs from any one bank’s transfer partners. Notably, HeyMax does NOT transfer to KrisFlyer (SQ is reached via the FlyAnywhere fixed-value redemption, a separate product) and no longer routes to Qantas after the Cash-For-Miles programme sunset on 1 Jun 2026.
