Check out how to apply for DBS One.Tap.

In a release, M1 Limited, together with DBS Bank, today announced the launch of DBS One.Tap - Singapore’s first virtual credit card on a Near Field Communications-enabled (NFC) mobile phone.

Customers who have the M1 NFC service and DBS/POSB credit card will be able to activate DBS One.Tap, and enjoy the simplicity and convenience of making secured purchases and payments on the go.

With DBS One.Tap, M1 customers will enjoy the freedom and benefits in making mobile payments, with just a tap of their NFC-enabled phones at over 30,000 MasterCard® Paypass™ acceptance points islandwide.

The DBS One.Tap is the latest addition to M1’s growing suite of NFC services that were first launched in August 2012.

To activate the service, existing M1 NFC and DBS/POSB credit card customers may apply for DBS One.Tap through DBS/POSB iBanking or mBanking, and once approved, download the virtual card via the M1 Mobile Wallet App.

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.
