SG60 Vouchers 2025: As part of Singapore’s 60th birthday celebrations, the government has rolled out the SG60 Vouchers, a one-time support scheme to help Singaporeans cope with rising costs. Nearly 3 million citizens are eligible to receive either $600 or $800 worth of digital vouchers, depending on their age group.
Let’s explore all the key details—from eligibility and claim process to usage and validity.
What Are SG60 Vouchers?
The SG60 Vouchers are part of the broader CDC Voucher Scheme launched under Budget 2025 to commemorate Singapore’s 60th year of independence. This voucher scheme is designed to support everyday spending at local businesses while easing the burden of inflation for citizens.
Eligible Singaporeans can claim either $600 or $800 in vouchers, split evenly between supermarkets and heartland merchants.
Who Is Eligible for SG60 Vouchers?
Every Singapore Citizen aged 21 and above in 2025 is eligible. The vouchers are given out based on the person’s birth year:
- $800 Vouchers: Citizens born in 1965 or earlier (aged 60 and above in 2025)
- $600 Vouchers: Citizens born between 1966 and 2004 (aged 21–59 in 2025)
This tiered distribution recognizes the contributions of senior citizens while offering cost-of-living relief to all adults.
When Can You Claim SG60 Vouchers?
The SG60 vouchers will be released in two phases:
- 1 July 2025: Claiming begins for seniors aged 60 and above
- 22 July 2025: Claiming opens for adults aged 21–59
Singaporeans are encouraged to claim their vouchers early to take full advantage of the 17-month usage period before they expire.

Where Can SG60 Vouchers Be Spent?
You can use SG60 Vouchers at any merchant or outlet that accepts CDC Vouchers. This includes:
- Heartland shops: Hawker stalls, provision stores, and small businesses
- Supermarkets: FairPrice, Giant, Sheng Siong, Prime Supermarket, and U Stars
The vouchers are split equally:
- Seniors get $400 for supermarkets and $400 for heartland shops
- Adults get $300 for supermarkets and $300 for heartland shops
This structure encourages Singaporeans to shop local and support small businesses.
Expiry and Validity Period
SG60 Vouchers are valid until 31 December 2026, giving citizens more than a year and a half to spend them at their own pace. Unused vouchers will expire after this date and cannot be refunded.
