According to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.you.co\/sg\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">YouTrip<\/a>&#8216;s latest survey, one in three Singaporeans have experienced disputes over travel expenses. And here&#8217;s the kicker: 21% said they wouldn&#8217;t travel with the same group again. Gasp!<\/p>\n<p>So, how can this be better resolved? The multi-currency digital wallet has introduced <a href=\"https:\/\/www.you.co\/sg\/blog\/youtrip-split\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">YouTrip Split<\/a>, allowing users to manage shared expenses from payment to settlement. All you have to do is create a group, add friends and select transactions directly from the history to be split. Choose to split equally or assign an exact amount, percentage or share for fairer division. No more reluctant accountant roles and splitting hairs over crunching the numbers!<\/p>\n<p>To mark the official launch, YouTrip is covering the travel expenses of three groups. Initiate a group split with three or more friends from 17 September to 14 October 2026 and stand a chance to have your trip expenses covered (capped at $5,000 per group). Users can participate by registering through the promo banner in the app.<\/p>\n<h3>7.

Plant protein has a reputation for being uncomfortable to digest (no thanks, bloating), and having a gritty texture. But good news: this new plant protein formula tackles both of these head-on.<\/p>\n<p>The formula features clean, functional ingredients, including a clinically studied digestive enzyme, prebiotics and probiotics. Not only does it support gut health, but it is also vegan, gluten-free and non-GMO. Try it in an array of fun flavours like coffee, matcha, chocolate and berries, as well as an unsweetened vanilla version.<\/p>\n<p>And that\u2019s a wrap on what&#8217;s happening in Singapore this week (and beyond).<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>If you&#8217;re wondering what\u2019s happening in Singapore this week, we\u2019ve got you covered.
