#dbs 10 million support measures

Two of Singapore's cheapest grocery staples just got cheaper — if you pay with the right card. From 18 July to 29 August 2026, DBS and POSB cardholders get S$3 off eggs and S$3 off rice every Saturday at Sheng Siong and Giant, for up to S$6 off a week. There's no minimum spend, it works with any DBS/POSB credit or debit card, and it runs across 129 outlets islandwide. The catch: it's on a 30-egg tray and a 5kg bag of jasmine rice (selected house-brand products only), one redemption per item per person per day, first-come-first-served with about 90,000 redemptions a week while stocks last — and it can't be stacked with CDC vouchers or other promos. Verified against DBS's official press release. Kicks off the bank's S$10 million cost-of-living support push.

DBS has now published the campaign's full terms, and three of them decide whether you actually get the S$3. It starts on Saturday 29 August 2026 and runs every Saturday to 19 December, 17 Saturdays in all. Redemption opens at 6am each Saturday and stops once 160,000 qualifying transactions have gone through. There is no minimum spend: you get 100% of what you spend back, capped at S$3. The trap is that only your FIRST eligible PayLah! transaction each Saturday counts, so a S$1.20 kopi bought first burns the whole week's redemption for S$1.20. The bigger change since DBS announced this on 25 August: the bank has published an address-level list of participating merchants, and a stall that is not on that list pays you nothing even if it happily accepts PayLah!. The list runs to 418 pages and covers roughly 8,700 named heartland shops plus 120 hawker centres, 79 wet markets, 672 coffee shops and 62 JTC industrial canteens. Payments routed through ShopeePay, Fave, Qashier, ShopBack and 15 other payment providers are excluded, as are shops inside private malls such as Bugis Junction and Great World City.
