Frequently Asked Questions

What is FAST?

FAST (Fast and Secure Transfer) is an electronic funds transfer service that lets you transfer SGD funds almost instantly from one bank to another within Singapore.

What is PayNow?

PayNow is an electronic fund transfer service that allows you to transfer SGD funds instantly to a payee, using the payee's designated mobile number or NRIC/FIN or UEN number or Virtual Payment Address (VPA) instead of his/her bank account number.

A payee can receive funds via PayNow as long as he/she has a Singapore bank account with one of the PayNow participating banks or wallets, and has registered his mobile number, UEN, NRIC/FIN or VPA as a PayNow Proxy with the participating bank or wallets.

How do I sign up for FAST/PayNow?​

To send/receive money on the FAST network or to signup for PayNow, you will need to verify your identity in the Dash app. After that, you will see a registration screen in the Dash app requesting your acceptance.

If you have already verified your identity prior, then you will need not repeat the identity verification process again.

What is a VPA?

Virtual Payment Address (VPA) is a new proxy used by e-wallets to receive money on the PayNow scheme. Upon your enrolment to the FAST/PayNow scheme, you will be assigned with your own VPA number (i.e. +65XXXXXXXX#DASH) which you can provide to your friends to transfer money to you.

Existing proxies under the PayNow scheme include mobile number, NRIC/FIN and UEN.

How do I transfer money to someone on PayNow?

To transfer money to a person’s bank account via PayNow, go to Send Money on the Dash app homepage and select PayNow. Select either Mobile Number or NRIC/FIN and input the correct details. Verify that the person you are sending money to is correct. Alternatively you can scan the person’s PayNow QR code if the person has provided you with it.

To transfer money to a person’s GrabPay or LiquidPay wallet account, go to Send Money on the Dash app homepage and select PayNow VPA and input the correct details. Verify that the person you are sending money to is correct. Alternatively you can scan the person’s PayNow QR code if the person has provided you with it.

I am unable to perform a P2P to a Dash PayNow user, what do I do?

I am unable to top-up my Dash wallet with credit card, why?

Users who have enrolled to FAST/PayNow cannot cash out funds in their e-wallet accounts sourced from credit card facilities.

Not to worry though, you can still top up your Dash app through FAST/PayNow with your VPA.

Can I de-enrol from FAST/PayNow?

No, FAST/PayNow enrolment is irreversible.

I am unable to transfer money to a PayNow user of another bank or wallet, why?​

If the recipient is already registered to PayNow but unable to receive money from you, then chances are that the recipient's account may be full or the recipients account has a minimum amount that they are able to receive.

For example, a PayNow registered user with a Grab account will only be able to receive a PayNow transfer if the amount is minimum $10.

Why can't I perform top up for others using my credit card?

The top up for others feature has been disabled for all users. You can still top up another person's Dash wallet using FAST/PayNow.

How do I know that I am topping up my Dash wallet and not someone else’s Dash wallet?

When you either scan from or upload your PayNow QR into your preferred mobile bank app, the 'Bill Reference' or 'Description' field would state DASH65.

Can I top up somebody else’s Dash wallet using their PayNow QR?

I have performed the top up by scanning my PayNow QR using my bank app but I did not receive money into my Dash wallet, why?

It is very likely that the information in the 'Bill Reference' or 'Description' field was incorrect. If this is the case, you will be refunded the amount within 60 days from the day of the original top up being performed.
