Up to $3 cashback on Saturdays: DBS brings back PayLah! Campaign

Are you an early riser and a user of the DBS PayLah! app?

For the fourth year running, DBS is offering its $3 cashback campaign on Saturdays, beginning Aug 29 and ending Dec 19.

The promotion is capped to the first 160,000 customers who use PayLah! at heartland shops, wet markets, coffee shops and hawker stalls on Saturdays.

The bank said on Tuesday (Aug 25) that this year's campaign will run for 17 Saturdays, five weeks longer than last year.

It will set aside about $2.7 million for the campaign, an increase of around 40 per cent compared to the previous year.

"Every dollar saved matters, especially amid today's rising costs," said Calvin Ong, head of consumer banking for DBS Singapore.

He added that the cashback campaign will help ease essential spending for consumers: "It also encourages more to support our neighbourhood businesses, allowing the benefits to flow back into the heartland communities we serve."

In the 2025 cashback campaign, 36 per cent of redemptions were made by senior citizens, or consumers who earned less than $2,500 a month, or both, according to DBS.

Participating hawkers, wet market stallholders and heartland merchants also saw a 50 per cent increase in Saturday earnings from PayLah! transactions last year.
