Important information

  • The default threshold for funds transfer notification alert is set at S$100.
  • The default threshold settings for notification alerts on all DBS/POSB cards is S$500, with notifications sent via email, push notifications, and SMS. This applies to all card transactions (including cash advance) made via AMEX, Mastercard, NETS, UnionPay or Visa.
  • You will only receive notification alerts for Retail Transactions. Retail Transactions are one-time purchases of goods or services for personal use, made in-store or online. Examples include buying groceries, purchasing clothes, ordering a meal at a restaurant, or buying a book online.
  • Recurring Transactions will not trigger notification alerts. They are regular, automated payments (monthly/annually) for goods or services, such as subscription services (Netflix), utility bills (SP), telco bills (Starhub/Singtel/M1), and loan payments.
  • To receive push notifications, ensure that you have turned on push notifications for your digibank mobile app. Learn more on how to enable Push notifications for your digibank.
  • You will need to select either email or SMS along with Push Notification for alerts. Selecting of Push Notification only is not allowed.
  • For changes on Offers & Insights Notifications settings, it will take up to 3 business days to take effect.
