SINGAPORE: Singapore citizens aged 21 and above can claim their SG60 vouchers starting in July, as part of the broader SG60 package announced at Budget 2025.

 

The rollout began on Tuesday (Jul 1) in the first phase, allowing those aged 60 and above this year to claim S$800 (US$630) worth of vouchers.

 

Younger citizens aged 21 to 59 this year can start claiming S$600 worth of vouchers on Jul 22, from 10am.

 

The dates were split up to prioritise older Singaporeans to recognise their contributions to the country, and devote more resources in the first three weeks of July to support elderly Singaporeans who need help to claim the vouchers digitally or print them out, said Mayor of the South West District Low Yen Ling.

 

The vouchers, valid until Dec 31, 2026, and can be used at all businesses that accept CDC vouchers.

 

Half of the vouchers are allocated for spending at participating heartland merchants and hawkers, while the other half can be used at participating supermarkets.

 

A list of where you can use your voucher can be found at go.gov.sg/sg60voucher.

HOW TO CLAIM

Singaporeans can visit go.gov.sg/sg60v to claim their vouchers.

 

They will be prompted to log in with their Singpass account before receiving a link via SMS from SenderID “gov.sg” to access their vouchers.

 

All citizens will also receive a specially designed postcard by mail, with those aged 60 and above getting theirs from Jul 1 and those aged 21 to 59 receiving theirs from Jul 22.

 

Prime Minister, Lawrence Wong's video --> here.

 

These postcards, featuring the work of artists with different abilities, along with a message from Prime Minister Lawrence Wong, include a QR code for citizens to scan and claim their vouchers.

 

“We really want to encourage our fellow Singaporeans of all ages to claim the SG60 voucher digitally from the comfort of their home by scanning the reverse side of this very beautiful SG60 postcard,” said Ms Low.

 

Seniors and those who are less digitally savvy can visit community centres and SG Digital Community Hubs for assistance.

 

Singaporeans are advised to remain vigilant against scams related to the SG60 vouchers. No banking information or financial transactions are required to claim the vouchers.

Of course you can, to show your Dates that you are down-to-earth kind of guy.

You will be shocked to find your assumption differs from reality.

They can call it whatever they wanted, but it is still the same wine under different skin.

I wish it is cash, now being force to spend at supermarket and heartland shops. 

Exactly.  I was at a crowded hawker center in town the last time.  An elderly man attempted to use a printed CDC voucher to pay for his meal, but the hawker loudly informed him that the coupon was not accepted. The elderly man was subsequently humiliated and fumbled for small coins and shillings in his pocket.   I fear, he now became hesitant for the next meal using CDC voucher.

paper ones have the same denominations

yes!!!


who is the one who assumed Elderly have issues with bigger denomination? Truly is a wrong mindset and a narrow one 

My parents robbed the Supermarket with all the vouchers in Feburary , just 1 week or so from the launched date!!! esp the bigger denomination ones

Allowing them to rob your SG60 voucher will spare you the stress of trying to make $10 grocery purchases.

My mum uses the hardcopy vouchers. It is easy to use the $2 and $5 vouchers as she can spend it on her meals at the hawker centres. Now, she is left with $10 vouchers, and she has to wait for me to bring her to the supermarket and grocery stores to spend them. Although the cost of living has gone up, but still a meal for a person is still less than $5, especially for elderlies who don't eat much and live alone and only spend on their own necessities. So isn't it more practical and elderly-friendly if the SG vouchers or CDC vouchers are all in $2 denominations? Easier to use and you won't force people to buy on impulse just to spend away the vouchers.

Not practical to use 5x$2 for $10. Causing delays in checking out purchases at the counters. Gotta scan 5 times

Do you believe I lose fifty cents? Not precisely, as the 50 cents was initially a gift.

Not practical for digital voucher too.  It is a skill in small-scale financial planning.   What denomination is left depends on how resourceful you are at making the most of the funds without needless stress.  I recently spent $9.50 on Indian rojak.  In order to keep the digital sum of $5+2+2 (which will come in handy), I let them scan $10 to keep the change. Do you believe I lose fifty cents? Not precisely, as the 50 cents was initially a gift.   Smart right?🤔

$10 voucher can be used to treat yourself like buy satay,  neighbourhood icecream cafe, western food or even buy durian. Otherwise, get a pair of glasses,  sunglasses or a hair cut, massage etc.

I'm glad to see this happiness over receiving the $600 or $800 vouchers.  I wish you all enjoy them fully!

 

In reality it is little compensation for living in one of the most expensive places in Asia.  But let's not think of the amount, but the gesture. :thumb:

About 3 million Singaporeans to receive up to S$600 cash in December under the Assurance Package

The cash payments are given out to eligible Singaporeans each December from 2022 to 2026.

SINGAPORE: Singaporeans aged 21 and above in 2026 will receive cash payments of between S$100 (US$77) and S$600 from Dec 5, 2025.

 

This is part of the enhanced Assurance Package, which was announced in Budget 2023. It is aimed at helping Singaporean households defray living expenses, as well as provide more support to lower- and middle-income households.

 

The cash payments are given out to eligible Singaporeans each December from 2022 to 2026.

 

"In total, eligible Singaporeans will receive between S$700 and S$2,250 of Assurance Package cash over these five years," the Ministry of Finance (MOF) said in a media release on Friday (Nov 7).

 

The enhanced Assurance Package also includes rebates, Community Development Council Vouchers, as well as MediSave top-ups.

Singaporeans can check their eligibility on the govbenefits website by logging in with their Singpass.

 

The finance ministry encouraged Singaporeans to link their NRIC to PayNow by Nov 23 if they have bank accounts with participating banks in Singapore.

 

Doing so would enable them to receive the cash by Dec 5, the ministry added.

 

PayNow-NRIC has been the ministry's primary mode of payment for citizens who have linked their NRIC to PayNow through their bank.

 

Those without PayNow-NRIC-linked bank accounts but have a DBS, POSB, OCBC or UOB bank account, may provide their bank account information at the govbenefits website by Nov 29, 2025.

 

They will then receive the cash benefits via GIRO by Dec 16 this year.

 

For those without a valid bank account, the cash payment will be made via GovCash by Dec 22, 2025.

 

Singaporeans on GovCash may withdraw their Assurance Package cash at any OCBC ATMs islandwide by entering their payment reference number, which can be retrieved by logging into the govbenefits website with their Singpass, NRIC, and passing the facial verification.

 

An OCBC bank account is not required to withdraw their payment at the ATMs, the ministry said.

 

Citizens on GovCash can also use the LifeSG app to make payments to merchants by scanning their PayNow/NETS QR code, or transferring payment to their bank account via PayNow-NRIC if they subsequently register for this service.

 

"Eligible recipients will be notified via the gov.sg SMS Sender ID before and after the Assurance Package cash has been credited," said the ministry.

 

Recipients without a Singpass-registered mobile number will be informed through a letter sent to their address on their NRIC.

 

MOF reminded the public to guard against scams, reiterating that government officials will never ask people to transfer money or disclose bank login details over a phone call.

 

If you are unsure if something is a scam, call the ScamShield hotline.
