Expired

During this month's DBS Extra Bonus Day, save 8% on food delivery, get S$8 for switching electricity plans, earn S$18 for investing and more.

The following is a sponsored post by DBS Bank. The opinions and analysis remain that of The Milelion.

DBS Extra Bonus Day is back for August, and for two days only, DBS & POSB customers can enjoy bonus cashback when they order online food delivery or support their favourite hawkers, sign up for an electricity plan, get insurance coverage or kickstart their investment journey. 

These offers are only available on 8.8 and 8.9 (8 & 9 August 2021), so be sure to read up on them ahead of time.

On 8 & 9 August 2021, DBS and POSB Cardmembers will enjoy an extra 8% cashback when they order food online and pay with their credit or debit card.

No minimum spend is required, and the maximum cashback is capped at S$8 per cardmember (regardless of how many DBS/POSB Cards he/she has). In other words, you’ll max out this promotion with S$100 of spending. 

The 8% cashback is awarded on top of whatever miles/ cashback/ DBS points/ POSB Daily$ you’d normally earn with your DBS/POSB Cards.

What counts as online dining?

Online dining spend refers to internet or in-app transactions made at merchants with the following MCCs:

MCCExamples
(Non-exhaustive)
5811: CaterersStamford Catering, Tian Wei Signature
5812: Eating Places and RestaurantsChope, Deliveroo, foodpanda, GrabFood
5813: Bars, Cocktail LoungesClink Clink, Zouk
5814: Fast FoodDomino’s Pizza, KFC, McDelivery
5422: Meat MarketsGoodCrop, Song Fish, The Butcher
5441: Sweets, Nuts, ConfectioneryBacha Coffee, Laderach
5451: Dairy ProductsDairyFolks
5462: BakeriesBaker’s Brew, Edith Patisserie
5499: Misc. Food ShopsNespresso
5921: Package Shops- Beer, Wine, SpiritsCrystal Wines, Paneco

This is a very wide range of merchant categories beyond just the usual restaurants and food delivery apps. You could order from bakeries, ice cream shops, or even frozen food suppliers (but not supermarkets), so long as they have an online storefront. 

Alternatively, if you miss dining in restaurants, you could purchase a ChopeDeals voucher (MCC 5812) and use it after Phase 2 (HA) ends- you’ll save up to S$6 off with DBS/POSB Cards, in addition to the 8% cashback. 

If you’re in doubt about the MCC of a particular merchant, it’s possible to look it up using the Visa Supplier Locator. Remember: all orders must be made online. If you head to a restaurant to order in person, you will not qualify for the bonus cashback. 

Hawker Meals

Just like previous Extra Bonus Day campaigns, DBS PayLah! users can earn 8% cashback on their first merchant (excludes gojek, ComfortDelgro and Gpay) or hawker transaction on 8 & 9 August 2021. 

No minimum spend is required, and the maximum cashback is capped at S$1 per user (so you’d max out the rebate with S$12.50 of spending). This offer is capped at the first 300,000 PayLah! users. 

If you prefer to order hawker meals online via WhyQ, DBS/POSB customers can enjoy the following discounts for advance orders:

  • WHYQNEW: Up to S$6 off for new users

These codes are capped at the first 500 redemptions per day. DBS will continue to give hawkers S$1 for every order made with PayLah! on WhyQ till 31 August 2021. 

If you don’t already have a PayLah! account, you can get S$5 free when you download and register with the promo code FIVELAH (T&C apply).
