Frequently Asked Questions

1. What is Save As You Serve (SAYS)?

As you do your part to secure our nation’s defence, let DBS help you get a head start in securing your financial future.

Bundle your DBS Multiplier account with our Debit Cards, DBS PayLah! wallet and our suite of Financial Planning solutions to unlock higher interest rates and accelerate your savings!

2. Do I need to switch my NS allowance from an existing DBS/POSB savings account to Multiplier Account?

No. You can continue to credit your NS allowance to an existing DBS/POSB savings account. You only need to deposit your savings in your DBS Multiplier Account, and use PayLah! for pay for any retail purchase to enjoy the higher interest rates on your Multiplier Account balances.

3. I’m going to serve my NS soon. When should I apply for the Multiplier Account?

You must be at least 18 years of age to apply for Multiplier Account. You’ll earn interest of 0.55% p.a. when you credit NSF allowance with us and use PayLah! for your retail spend, adding up to S$500 or more monthly. That’s 11X more compared to a regular savings account.

While waiting for enlistment, you’ll earn 0.40% p.a. on the first S$10,000 of your Multiplier Account savings, with any PayLah! retail spend amount.

1. Can I open more than 1 DBS Multiplier Account?

You can only hold 1 Multiplier Account.

2. When will I receive my interest?

The interest is credited into your DBS Multiplier Account in 2 parts:

  • Base interest: Credited on the last calendar day of the month
  • Bonus interest (if any): Credited by the 7th working day of the following month

3. Do I need to close my Multiplier Account after ORD?

No, you can keep the Multiplier Account and continue to earn bonus interest as long as you fulfil the bonus interest criteria.

If you do not have income credited to DBS/POSB and are 29 years old and below, you earn 0.40% p.a. on your Multiplier Account balances with PayLah! retail purchase of any amount.
