If you’re living in Singapore, you might already know about the CDC Vouchers that the government has been giving out to households. But in case you missed it – yes, there’s free money on the table. And if you already claimed your $300 earlier this year, good news: another $200 CDC Vouchers will be released in the second half of 2025.
The CDC Voucher Scheme is part of the government’s ongoing support to help Singaporeans manage the higher cost of living. It’s not just about giving money, but also encouraging people to support local businesses – especially our neighbourhood shops and hawkers.
How much are you entitled to?
All Singaporean households are eligible for a total of $500 in CDC Vouchers this year. The amount is split into two batches:
- $300 – Given in January 2025
- $200 – Expected sometime in mid to late 2025
If you haven’t redeemed your first $300, just check your SMS inbox. The government sent a unique link to every household. Once you click the link, you’ll be guided to log in using your Singpass and claim your share. Very fast and simple process.
Where can you spend your CDC Vouchers?

You can use your vouchers at participating hawker stalls, heartland shops, minimarts, and local merchants. Just look out for the CDC Vouchers logo or poster at the shop. You can also check the official CDC website for the full list of participating businesses.
The idea is to help Singaporeans save on daily needs – groceries, cooked food, household items – while also supporting our local economy. So whether you use it to buy kopi, eggs, or lunch at your favourite chicken rice stall, it’s still money saved.
How to claim and use?
- Click the SMS link sent to your registered mobile number
- Log in with your Singpass
- Claim the vouchers on behalf of your household
- Get your QR code to spend at shops and hawkers
No need to print anything or download special apps. Just show your phone at the counter and scan to pay.
Don’t miss out on your share
With everything becoming more expensive these days – from rice to utilities – every dollar makes a difference. That’s why the CDC Vouchers are so useful, especially for retirees, seniors, and families with tighter budgets. Even if it’s just a few meals or groceries a month, it adds up.
Another $200 is expected to be given later this year, so keep your phone close and stay alert for new announcements.
