Fintech firm Fave unveils QR payments to DBS PayLah, Singtel Dash users

Users buying from Fave’s partner merchants will receive up to 20% instant cashback.

Payments platform Fave has partnered with DBS and Singtel to offering a QR-payments option to DBS PayLah! and Singtel Dash users, according to a press release.

Starting from August and early September, DBS PayLah! and Singtel Dash users can respectively transact digitally via the scanning of SGQR codes at Fave-partnered merchants to enjoy instant merchant cash back of up to 20%.

All existing merchants using FavePay QR payments will also be extending their cashback to DBS PayLah! and Singtel Dash users.

Digital payments and e-wallet adoption are projected to increase rapidly in Singapore over the next two years, and will comprise 22.5% of all sales by 2021, according to a study by JP Morgan.

Since 2019, Fave merchants have issued over $20m in cashback for their customers through the FavePay loyalty programme, the platform said.

Through this new partnership, DBS PayLah! and Singtel Dash users will be able to scan at more than 12,000 F& B and retail outlets across Singapore such as Tim Ho Wan, Food Republic, Essensuals Hairdressing and Ippudo Ramen.

A NOTE FROM SINGAPORE BUSINESS REVIEW

If you've been wondering whether SBR could work for your company — yes, probably.

A lot of the companies we partner with started as readers. They'd been following our coverage for a while, saw their own customers and competitors in it, and eventually asked the obvious question: could we do something with you? The answer is usually yes. The shape of it depends on what you're trying to do.


The options are broader than most people assume — thought leadership articles, sponsored content, industry summits across Southeast Asia, regional awards programmes, podcasts, and media placements in print and digital. Some partners use one channel; most use a mix. We figure out the right combination by starting with your brief, not with our rate card.


So if the question has been on your mind, here's the easy way to ask it.

We'll tell you honestly whether we can help, and how. It's a better use of everyone's time.
