DBS Vickers Online Guide

As we are temporarily closing our branch services, we strongly encourage you to apply for an Individual DBS Vickers Online Trading Account through DBS digibank online or digibank mobile.

For DBS Vickers Online account opening pre-requisites, please refer to the list of criteria here.

As we are experiencing a high volume of account opening applications, we seek your patience and understanding that processing time is longer than usual. Once your DBS Vickers trading account is successfully opened, you will receive an email enclosed with your DBS Vickers trading account number and a separate mailer containing your log in password.

You may check on your application status here.

Incomplete forms and/or documentation may result in longer processing time. You will receive an email or call from our staff in the event of some of the following scenarios:

1. Mismatch of name, address, date of birth or IC number on application form versus the photo of identification document provided
2. Photo of identification document is blur or submitted in the wrong format

Your User ID is the 7-digit DBS Vickers Online Account Number. You may refer to your email to retrieve your 7-digit User ID.
