There is no limit to the number of vouchers that can be spent at any one time. You can stack the vouchers and spend all the vouchers in a single transaction.

Below are the types of participating businesses that accept your CDC vouchers based on previous CDC Vouchers Participating Merchants:

Similar to other vouchers like supermarket vouchers, there will be no change / refund provided if the purchase amount is less than the vouchers used.

How to Redeem the Vouchers

To spend the voucher digitally, the resident has to click on the CDC vouchers link, select the amount to be used and show the QR code to a participating merchant, who will then scan it using the RedeemSG App.

There is no need for residents to download any mobile application. Simply claim your vouchers by going to go.gov.sg/cdcv. The voucher link will be sent to your verified mobile number. You can then use the voucher by presenting the QR code vouchers at participating hawkers and heartland merchants identified by the CDC Vouchers decal.

Steps required to redeem the CDC Vouchers include:
  • Login with Singpass and verify your personal particulars to claim your voucher(s).
  • Each household with at least 1 Singaporean will be able to claim $100 in vouchers.
  • These vouchers can be used at participating merchants with a CDC decal.
  • Those using hard copy vouchers have to show the merchant the QR code on the voucher, which the merchant will then scan.
No change will be given, so residents have to select the suitable denominations of vouchers and top up the extra, or forfeit the remaining value. The vouchers are not allowed to be resold.
