DBS Bank is bringing back its PayLah! campaign, offering users up to S$3 cashback every Saturday for 17 weeks starting August 29. This initiative aims to ease cost pressures for Singaporeans and support local businesses.

The cashback is available to the first 160,000 customers each Saturday. Participating merchants include heartland shops, wet markets, coffee shops, and hawker stalls. This marks the fourth year of the campaign, which has been extended by five weeks compared to last year.

In total, 2.7 million cashback rewards will be distributed, a 40% increase from the previous year. The program is part of DBS's broader S$10 million support measures announced earlier this year to help manage rising costs. Previously, the Saturday Savings program offered S$3 off eggs and rice at Sheng Siong and Giant supermarkets until August 29.

"Every dollar saved matters, especially amid todayโ€™s rising costs," said Calvin Ong, DBS Singapore's head of consumer banking group. He added that the program also encourages support for neighborhood businesses, ensuring benefits flow back into local communities.

Every dollar saved matters, especially amid todayโ€™s rising costs. The programme also encourages more to support our neighbourhood businesses, allowing the benefits to flow back into the heartland communities we serve.
