What happens if I have negative balance in my wallet?

In some instances, your balance may drop below SGD 0 due to a number of reasons (but not limited to) such as:

  1. Recurring payments
  2. Delayed processing by the merchant
  3. Unauthorised transaction

In cases of unauthorised transactions, please lock your card immediately and report the transaction by following these steps:

  • Open your app and click on the second button (activity icon) on the bottom right.
  • Click on the specific transaction under transaction summary.
  • Click on Report a problem.
  • Alternatively, go to Help Centre in the app to chat with us or submit an enquiry. Our customer service team will require you to complete a dispute form within 14 days from the date of the unauthorised transaction.

In other cases, please go ahead and top up your wallet to balance out the negative amount and to avoid any issue of overdue payments
