$500 CDC Vouchers Coming This May

$500 CDC Vouchers Coming This May – What You Need to Know

Good news, Singapore! Starting this May, every Singaporean household will be getting a $500 CDC Voucher payout — and yes, it’s real, and it’s happening soon. 🙌

With the cost of living creeping up, this timely boost is part of the government’s ongoing Assurance Package, designed to help you stretch your dollar a little further, whether it’s groceries or your favourite hawker meal.

🗓️ When Are the Vouchers Coming?

Mark your calendar! You’ll receive:

  • $500 in May 2025

  • Another $300 in January 2026

You’ll have until the end of each year to use your vouchers — no rush, no pressure.

💳 How Will the $500 Be Split?

This time, the $500 will be neatly split into two parts:

  • $250 for supermarkets 🛒 (NTUC, Giant, Sheng Siong, etc.)

  • $250 for hawkers & heartland shops 🍜 (think kopitiams, minimarts, bakeries)

It’s a smart mix to support both big chains and your local neighbourhood favourites.
