Occasionally, Dash uses geolocation capabilities to alert you of promotions at nearby Dash merchants. This nonetheless requires you to enable GPS location services in your phone, as well as enabling:
Settings->Update Preferences->Use of Personal data->For Dash and Dash’s Preferred Partners to turn on: “I consent to Dash sharing my personal information with preferred partners for better targeting and customization of Dash and Dash’s preferred partners’ promotions.”, and “In-App Notifications” to Yes
If you have just enabled these settings, please allow up to max of 25 days for them to take effect, or you can clear Dash app cache.
When there is a location based campaign at selected Dash merchants, you would receive a push notification if you are near these merchants, which you can open the notifications to view details of the promotion.
Correspondingly, if you would prefer not to receive Dash promotions at nearby Dash merchants, please disable either of the above settings. You would have to wait for max of 25 days for this to take effect, or you can clear Dash app cache.
The Dash Visa Virtual Account gives you a unique 16-digit card number and security code, that allows you to make online purchases at local e-commerce stores with Visa. With a compatible Android NFC-enabled phone or iOS device, you will also be able to make payments at Visa payWave accepted retailers in Singapore.
To make payment for local e-commerce stores, simply login to your Singtel Dash app, tap on the Dash Visa Virtual Card to retrieve your unique 16 digit account number, expiry date and security code. You can key in these details into the payment details on the e-commerce stores just like a credit/debit card payment.
Only iPhones that are Apple Pay enabled, or compatible NFC-enabled Android mobile phones will be able make to make payments at retailers accepting Visa payWave payments. Currently Xiaomi, OnePlus and Oppo phone models are not supported. To verify if your phone is compatible, please contact us at 1800-GET-DASH (1800-438-3274). To make payment, simply let cashier know that you would like to pay via Visa payWave. For Android mobile phones, if you have chosen Singtel Dash as the default Tap and Pay service in your phone NFC settings, simply unlock your phone and tap on the Visa payWave terminal while your screen is ON. If Singtel Dash is not your default Tap and Pay service, you need to launch Singtel Dash and Tap on the Visa payWave terminal while your screen is ON.

This is a normal payment process. When your transaction is performed and approved, your Dash balance will be deducted with the transaction amount and your transaction will show "pending" until the merchant processes and completes the transaction backend. This will usually take 3 to 4 days (maximum 14 days) after your purchase, until it has been processed.
In some cases, when the merchant confirms the payment a few days after your transaction, the amount of the transaction can be adjusted to reflect the actual amount. This happens when some items of your total order are not available, and the final amount will be lesser than your amount paid. Your transaction history will show the previous transaction as "Cancelled" and a new transaction will be shown with the final amount. The difference will be debited or credited automatically to your Dash balance.

The difference will be debited or credited automatically to your Dash balance. For overseas payments, the foreign exchange rate provided by Visa may change between the day you made the transaction and the day the merchant completed it. Thus, transactions with foreign currency might be more subject to amount changes.
Ensure that your NFC setting is turned ON. Check that your Visa payWave service is ACTIVE by going to Settings / Update Preferences/Dash Visa Account/Status. Launch your Singtel Dash App and ensure your screen is ON when you tap on the payWave terminal. If the previous steps didn’t work, uninstall then reinstall your Singtel Dash App.
Yes, Dash now supports overseas transactions. With your Dash Visa Virtual Account, you can make Visa payWave transactions overseas or online purchases from overseas websites. The amount in foreign currency will be automatically converted to SGD and deducted from your balance. Please note that additional processing fees apply for transactions made at overseas merchants and will be included in the final amount deducted from Dash balance.
To prevent unauthorised transactions when making payments online, a one-time-password (OTP) may be sent to your registered Dash mobile number during an e-commerce transaction. The OTP has to be entered for verification within 3 minutes of its receipt, significantly reducing the risk of fraudulent use of your Dash Visa Virtual Account. Each OTP will expire after 3 minutes and is limited to one time use. After each payment you will receive a notification including your merchant name and the amount of the transaction to confirm your successful transaction. Please ensure that notifications are allowed for Singtel Dash in your Android OS settings. For more security, customer can disable payWave PINless mode in Dash Visa account settings. When PINless mode is disabled, you need to click on your Visa card to enter your PIN before payment on the payWave terminal.
Some merchants, especially e-commerce merchants such as Paypal, Fave.com, perform a card verification transaction the first time you add your Dash Visa card. In most of the cases, this transaction ($1 or $2 amount) is cancelled few minutes later and the amount is credited back to your account. If not, it will appear as a Visa Card Credit Adjustment in the next 10 working days.
In some cases, after your payment is completed, the merchant may adjust the amount to a higher value, i.e if you added a tip to your receipt or if the shipment fees are higher than expected. The difference between the purchase amount and the adjusted amount will be debited from your Dash balance and will be visible in your Dash Transaction History under Visa Card Debit Adjustment.
When you cancel your transaction or ask for refund, after the merchant process your request, your refund will be visible in your Dash Transaction History under Visa Card Credit Adjustment. In some cases, after your payment is completed, the merchant may adjust the amount to a lower value, i.e if one of the items you ordered is not available. The difference between the purchase amount and the adjusted amount will be refunded to your Dash balance and will be visible in your Dash Transaction History under Visa Card Credit Adjustment.
