DBS Bank Ltd announced that from 1 April 2026, consumers can receive 10-cent refunds via DBS PayLah! when returning eligible beverage containers at Reverse Vending Machines (RVMs) under Singapore’s Beverage Container Return Scheme.
Users can generate a personal QR code within the DBS PayLah! app and scan it at participating machines to receive refunds directly into their digital wallets. The feature is available to all eligible users in Singapore, including those without a DBS or POSB bank account, who can still sign up for PayLah! and transfer funds to other bank accounts.
The integration, in partnership with Beverage Container Return Scheme Ltd., aims to make recycling more convenient and support Singapore’s circular economy goals by embedding sustainability into everyday digital payment habits.
