There are three options for receiving your cash benefit via GovCash:

 

 

If you have an existing bank account, you can link your account to PayNow-NRIC with your bank. Thereafter, login to LifeSG mobile app (LifeSG) using your Singpass to transfer your GovCash to your PayNow-NRIC linked bank account. The LifeSG app can be downloaded from the Apple App store or Google Play Store.

 

 

You can use LifeSG to scan participating merchants' QR codes for purchases or scan your friend's/family’s QR code to transfer your GovCash to them. Purchases are only allowed at merchants that accept PayNow/NETS QR codes using the LifeSG app. Look out for the PayNow/NETS logo on the SG QR label displayed by merchants.

 

Once your GovCash balance is deducted on the LifeSG mobile app, the payment cannot be cancelled.

 

 

You can withdraw your cash benefit at OCBC ATMs islandwide. You just need to enter:

 

(i) your unique 8-digit Payment Reference Number (PRN)
(ii) your NRIC number; and
(iii) pass the facial verification

 

You do not need to have an OCBC bank account to use this service.

 

You will receive the Payment Reference Number (PRN) via letter, your Singpass app (if any) or SMS after your cash benefits have been paid. You can also log into the e-services with your Singpass and select “GovCash PRN” from the left menu to view your PRN. This will only be available after the payment has been made.
