SINGAPORE - Media OutReach Newswire – 8 May 2026 - As families continue to manage day-to-day cost pressures, the recent disbursement of Child LifeSG Credits (CLC) and Large Family LifeSG Credits (LFLC) has provided timely support to help defray household expenses. Shopee is observing how households are using these credits across their everyday spending, with many choosing to top up their ShopeePay wallets to extend their value.

Families can use their CLC or LFLC to top up ShopeePay, and upon topping up at least S$100, unlock up to S$100 in additional value through ShopeePay vouchers from now till 31 May 2026. These can be used across everyday purchases such as groceries, household supplies, and online essentials, giving families more ways to stretch their spending across both immediate and planned needs.

Within the first week of disbursement, eligible users have topped up their ShopeePay wallets and unlocked over S$150K in additional value through vouchers. Users are already putting their credits towards practical, everyday purchases, with many grouping transactions around in-store voucher thresholds such as S$25 off S$250 / S$40 off S$450, enabling fuller use of available savings. With merchants across everyday categories on Shopee, users can apply their credits within a single platform instead of across multiple shopping channels.

Essential categories account for a significant share of purchases, with almost 50% of Shopee orders going towards groceries, baby products, and household items, and nearly 80% of in-store vouchers used at physical locations such as hawker stalls and supermarkets, reflecting how families are using the credits on day-to-day necessities.

The value of the top-up extends across both online and in-store use. With ShopeePay accepted at more than 50,000 merchants, including supermarkets, department stores, and neighbourhood merchants, families can further apply their savings across different parts of their daily routines.

"We know that every dollar counts when running a household and families are actively looking for ways to make their household budgets go further," said Chua Kel Jin, Director of Shopee Singapore. "By enabling users to top up their LifeSG credits into ShopeePay and access additional savings, we hope to make it easier and more convenient for families to plan and manage their everyday expenses across both online and offline needs."

Shopee continues to support Singaporeans in extending the value of their everyday spending, particularly across essential purchases.
