The Coffee Bean & Tea Leaf runs one of Singapore's quietest great loyalty programmes — CBTL Rewards — and most customers don't know about it. If you drink coffee regularly at CBTL (or intend to), here's the complete guide to every deal worth knowing in 2026.
How CBTL Rewards works
Download the CoffeeBean SG Rewards app, register as a member, and pay through the app. You earn 5 Bean Points per S$1 spent, and each Bean Point equals S$0.01 off your next bill. That works out to 5% effective cashback on every purchase — higher than most Singapore dining cashback credit cards, and it stacks on top of any credit card rewards.
Welcome offer for new members
First-time registrations unlock 50% off your first beverage — effectively half-price coffee for your first visit. The welcome pack also includes a handful of rotating coupons (usually free upgrades, buy-one-get-one promos on pastries, or bonus Bean Points on specific items).
App-exclusive features
Beyond earning and redeeming points, the CBTL app is surprisingly capable:
Contactless payment — top up stored value in the app and pay by tapping your phone, skipping wallet queues.
Digital gift cards — send instant gift cards to anyone via email or WhatsApp, great for last-minute birthdays.
Reload anywhere — add stored value on the go without visiting a store.
Store locator with live queue times — useful at busy CBD locations.
Daily combo deals
The app carries rotating daily combos that beat à la carte pricing — typically S$2-3 cheaper for a drink + pastry pairing compared to ordering separately. Morning combos are the best value, especially for breakfast-hour office workers.
Tips to maximise savings
Top up stored value in bulk. When CBTL runs their occasional "top up S$50, get S$5 free" promos, stack up — it's 10% free money on coffee you'd buy anyway.
Pay via the app, not your credit card. Using the app's stored value earns 5 Bean Points per S$1; paying by card directly may not count depending on store setup.
Birthday perks. Members often get bonus Bean Points or a free birthday drink during their birthday month — check the app notification centre in the first week of your birthday month.
Final word
CBTL Rewards is an easy win if Coffee Bean is already your go-to café — 5% effective cashback on every visit, plus a solid welcome offer. Download CoffeeBean SG Rewards from the App Store or Play Store, register for free, and start stacking. Full programme info at coffeebeanrewards.com.
