Need my first credit card- 7k aed salary

I'm looking to get my first credit card. My monthly salary is AED 7,000 and since I live with my family my expenses are relatively low so I can pay my credit card bills in full every month.

My average monthly spending looks like this:

  1. Petrol: AED 1,000–1,500 (this is my biggest expense so I'd like the highest possible cashback on fuel)
  2. Online food order + Groceries & shopping: Around AED 1,500
    Any urgent or unexpected expenses would also go on the credit card.

I usually save AED 3,500–4,000 every month so I'm mainly looking for a card that offers the best overall value.

My priorities are:
- Maximum cashback on fuel
- Good cashback on groceries, dining, and shopping
- A decent welcome bonus
- Complimentary airport lounge access
- Low or waived annual fee, if possible

What's the best card for travelling?

i'll be travelling and need some help what card to use. I read some cashback are just to offset foreign transaction fee so I'm not sure which will be best.

My goal is to have better cashback with low fees, currently I have the following cards:

Tabby Cash - they have 3% cashback on international spend

Wio Debit - i dont have the credit so im not sure about the cashback and fee

ENBD Voyager - this one is new and they have points but im not sure about the fee

ENDB Share - this is what i used previously as they have 1% cashback but i'm not clear regarding the fee

Aside from that, if you have other card suggestions, please drop it down. Thanks!!!!
