All Singaporean households automatically qualify for the S$800 CDC vouchers. The redemption process is straightforward. One household member can claim the vouchers online through their SingPass account. After redemption the vouchers can be shared digitally with family members using links or QR codes. Residents can identify participating merchants by spotting the CDC Voucher decal at store entrances. The vouchers remain valid until 5 November 2025. Any unclaimed or unused amounts will expire permanently after this date.

Approved Merchants and Key Rules for Spending Your Benefit

The vouchers work at many local shops and hawker stalls & supermarkets that participate in the CDC programme. Stores like Sheng Siong & NTUC FairPrice and Cold Storage accept them along with small businesses in neighborhood centers. You can divide the vouchers into smaller amounts when making different purchases so they are flexible for daily shopping. The vouchers cannot be used for online purchases or exchanged for cash. Residents should look at the official list of approved stores before they try to use their vouchers.

How the CDC Voucher Changes Will Affect Local Communities

The CDC Voucher Scheme 2025 offers more than money. It helps build stronger communities by getting people to shop locally and support small businesses in their neighborhoods. The program makes it easier for low and middle-income families to pay for food and transportation as prices go up. The government plans to put over S$500 million into the local economy through this scheme. This will benefit both shoppers and business owners across Singapore. People should use their vouchers before the deadline runs out to get the full advantage of this support.
