Frequently Asked Questions
How do I maximise birthday deals and freebies in Singapore?
To get the most out of your birthday month, we recommend signing up for loyalty programs at least one month in advance. Most brands, such as Mr Coconut, Don Don Donki and Uniqlo, require you to be an existing member before you are rewarded with the birthday perk. Membership sign-ups can usually be done online, so download the respective mobile apps to get started.
Do I need to verify my identity to redeem the birthday perks?
Yes, most brands require verification. To avoid disappointment, bring along your physical IC or have your Singpass app ready to verify your birth date. Tip: some brands may refuse redemptions if the name on your membership doesn't match your legal identification, so ensure your account details are accurate.
Are birthday perks in Singapore valid for the whole month or just one day?
Most dining, lifestyle and retail vouchers are valid for your entire birthday month. However, certain brands, such as Boost, have a narrower redemption window. Always check the T&Cs to be safe!
Can birthday vouchers be stacked with other bank or store promotions?
Generally, birthday vouchers are not stackable with other ongoing promotions. If you have multiple vouchers, we recommend planning separate visits to maximise your savings during your birthday month.
Are there restaurants in Singapore that offer free food based on your age?
Yes, restaurants like Tanuki Raw offer free salmon sashimi slices for every year of your age. Do note that these popular ‘age-based deals’ usually require a minimum number of dining companions and a minimum purchase. Be sure to book weeks in advance to secure your slot.
