Remitting money back home just got easier and more convenient with the launch of Singtel Dash Remit on Singtel’s hi!App. The latest feature allows Singtel prepaid customers to manage their prepaid account and remit all in one app.
Remittance is an essential financial service to the migrant community who makes up 70% of Singtel’s prepaid customers, and over half a million of them are active hi!App users. Most come from countries such as Malaysia, India, China, the Philippines, Indonesia, Bangladesh and Myanmar. With Dash Remit offering remittance to all seven countries, they can enjoy the convenience of transferring money to their families back home at their fingertips through the hi!App.
Apart from managing their prepaid accounts and remittance, customers can purchase data plans, entertainment and social packages. They are also able to view offers customised to their needs and redeem rewards through the hi!App.
Registration for Dash Remit is free through the hi!App. Customers will receive 1GB of free mobile data for their first successful remittance with hi!App, with remittance fees starting from as low as S$2. They can earn 50 hi!Rewards coins for every subsequent transaction, which can be exchanged for attractive rewards such as free talktime packages and discount e-vouchers at participating retail outlets. With every successful remittance, customers are also entitled to a free 30-day insurance by Income with up to S$5,000 cash payout.
Singtel has been supporting migrant and foreign domestic workers throughout the pandemic by partnering MWC and Centre for Domestic Employees to engage with them and lift their spirits.
