As parents, you know how important it is to stretch every dollar, especially when it comes to your family’s daily needs. That’s why we’re thrilled to share some fantastic news that will not only help you save money but also support our local heartland businesses. Starting August 1, PayLah! customers can enjoy up to S$3 cashback when they shop at hawker stalls, heartland shops, and markets on Saturdays.
This initiative is part of POSB’s “Support Our Heartlands” campaign, which runs until the end of the year.

If you’re a PayLah! user, you’re in for a treat! The first 75,000 customers who scan to pay with PayLah! at participating merchants on Saturdays will receive up to S$3 cashback. This offer applies to a variety of locations, including:
- Hawker stalls
- Heartland shops
- Wet markets
Look for the “POSB Support Our Heartland Shops” wobbler at these locations, as well as the PayLah! Scan to Pay sticker, which indicates that the stall is SGQR code-enabled. This is a great opportunity to enjoy your favourite local dishes while also saving some cash!
Extra Savings on Essentials
In addition to the PayLah! cashback, there’s even more good news for families. If you use your POSB credit or debit card, you can snag S$3 off eggs and S$3 off rice at any Sheng Siong supermarket.
This offer is capped at the first 50,000 redemptions for each essential item per month, so be sure to take advantage of it while you can. You can shop for these essentials on any day of the month, making it easy to incorporate into your regular grocery runs.

To further bolster our local economy, DBS is introducing the “Heartland Merchant Banking Package.” This package aims to provide financing support for small neighbourhood businesses, helping them overcome operational barriers and access banking services more easily.
The package allows new businesses to set up a Multi-Currency Business Account without an initial deposit or minimum balance. This is a significant step in promoting entrepreneurship in our heartlands. Additionally, to encourage the adoption of digital payments, merchants will receive a free six-month subscription for NETS terminals. This means more convenient payment options for you as a customer!
Digital Literacy for Everyone
In an age where digital transactions are becoming the norm, DBS/POSB is committed to ensuring that everyone can navigate these changes confidently. They will be scaling their digital and financial literacy programs to more neighbourhoods, making education on digital payments and financial management more accessible.
This initiative will empower parents and their children to make informed financial decisions, which is crucial in today’s fast-paced world.
