Why is there a 12-hour cooling period for Singlife Account?

The 12-hour cooling period is put in place to help protect against fraud and scams for every new device login. During this period, you will not be able to make withdrawal transactions such as PayNow or bank transfer withdrawal.

Can I log in to multiple devices simultaneously with my Singlife ID?

Yes, you can log in to your Singlife Account on up to three devices simultaneously. If you log in on a fourth device, the earliest device (the first one) will be logged out, and so on. For every new device login, there will be a 12-hour cooling period before you can perform any withdrawal transactions.

Will my existing device(s) be subjected to cooling period?

Your first existing device will not be subjected to the cooling period when this functionality is launched. However, for subsequent devices, the 12-hour cooling period will apply.

How can I uplift the 12-hour cooling period on a new device?

This is a mandatory arrangement, and you will not be able to remove it. It is in place to protect you from any potential fraud or scams.
