DBS Spend Promo: Get S$100 Bonus Cashback on Overseas Shopping and Dining, Limited Registrations

From 3rd Novemeber to 31st December 2025, spend on your DBS/POSB cards on in-person overseas shopping and dining transactions and get additional S$100 cashback. This is on top of your usual credit card rewards, and will be given when you reach your personalised spend goal. 

The promo is limited to the first 40,000 registrations. You can register via your DBS PayLah! app under the Rewards tab.

If this seems familiar, it is essentially a repeat of the promo that just ended 31st October 2025. Another chance at bonus cashback for those travelling this year end!

Spend Goals

The spend goal is determined by DBS seemingly on your spending habits on their cards. Based on a few friends’ accounts, I have seen S$1,000, S$2,000 and S$5,000 spend goals.

Do share in the comments or Telegram what amount you got.

Spend GoalCashback Percentage
S$1,00010%
S$2,0005%
S$5,0002%

Those with a spend goal of S$1,000 would find this a very appealing promo as getting S$100 cashback on S$1,000 spend is bonus 10% cashback on top of their usual card rewards. Even 5% at the S$2,000 tier isn’t too bad if you can hit the spend requirement.

Eligible Cards

The list of eligible DBS/POSB cards include: 

  • POSB Everyday
  • DBS Live Fresh
  • DBS Altitude
  • DBS ESSO
  • DBS Live Fresh Student Card
  • DBS SAFRA (credit/debit)
  • DBS Takashimaya
  • DBS UnionPay Debit
  • DBS Vantage

You can use different cards to meet the spend goal as the minimum spend is cumulative across all DBS/POSB cards you own. Any spend made by supplementary cardholder(s) will accrue to the principal cardholder’s spend goal.

Potential use cases

I’ve talked about DBS Live Fresh being a good card to use in conjunction with this promo due to its ongoing forex fee cashback promo in my previous article and I think it still holds true for this campaign.
