Starting June 2025, Singaporean households will receive a new round of support with the distribution of $700 CDC vouchers under the enhanced Assurance Package. This initiative is a continued response to the ongoing cost-of-living pressures, designed to offer practical, immediate relief to residents. As inflation continues to impact daily necessities, this move reinforces the government’s proactive approach to help households manage essential expenses.
Dual-Purpose Voucher Format to Maximise Utility
The total voucher amount of $700 is split into two segments, ensuring flexibility and purpose-specific usage. Of this, $500 can be used at a broad range of local heartland businesses, including hawker stalls, wet markets, and small merchants, while the remaining $200 is allocated exclusively for spending at major supermarket chains. This combination allows families to address both immediate food needs and general household expenses.
Simple and Secure Digital Collection Process Begins June 10
From June 10, 2025, households can begin redeeming the vouchers through the official CDC Vouchers portal at go.gov.sg/cdcv. Only one household member needs to log in using Singpass to initiate the process. Once verified, a unique voucher link is created and can be distributed among household members via messaging apps. This streamlined, digital-first method eliminates the need for physical collection in most cases. Those without access to online services can still receive assistance at Community Clubs and Centres.
Important CDC Voucher Deadlines Not to Miss
The redemption period for the vouchers spans from June through December 2025. The final day to use the vouchers is December 31, 2025. After this date, any unutilised amount will expire without extension or rollover. Households are encouraged to plan their spending well in advance to fully benefit from this government initiative.
Targeted Support Designed for Maximum Impact
The $700 payout serves a dual function easing household expenditure and stimulating local economic activity. As families contend with rising prices in food and essential services, the vouchers help reduce financial pressure while simultaneously directing spending towards neighbourhood vendors. The inclusion of a specific $200 supermarket allocation also reflects the government’s focus on maintaining access to affordable groceries, a priority in light of fluctuating food costs.
No Income Cap
This scheme applies uniformly to all Singaporean households, regardless of income or property type. Whether living in HDB flats, private estates, or public rental units, every eligible household receives the same $700 allocation. It is important to note that Permanent Residents (PRs) are not included in this benefit, which is reserved solely for citizens.
Keeping Track of Your Voucher Status
Households will be notified via SMS when their vouchers are available for redemption. Alternatively, the status can be checked anytime by logging into the CDC Vouchers portal with Singpass credentials. This ensures transparency and real-time access for users seeking confirmation or support.
Ensuring Full Redemption Before Year-End Cut-Off
To avoid forfeiting the value, households must redeem all vouchers by the end of 2025. There will be no reissuance of expired vouchers. For those unfamiliar with the redemption process, community centres will continue offering on-site help to guide residents through digital steps or address any accessibility issues.
Supporting Households While Empowering Communities
The June 2025 rollout of the $700 CDC voucher package represents more than just financial relief it is a strategic measure to reinforce social safety nets while boosting community businesses. By blending ease of access, broad applicability, and timely support, Singapore’s approach ensures residents have both the tools and flexibility to navigate current economic challenges with greater confidence.
