Good news for 1.2 million past and present NSmen.
As announced at Budget 2024, eligible past and present national servicemen will receive $200 in LifeSG credits to recognise their contributions to Singapore’s defence and security.
Starting November, the LifeSG credits will be progressively disbursed to national servicemen by the Ministry of Defence (MINDEF) and Ministry of Home Affairs (MHA).
All eligible national servicemen will automatically receive the credits via the LifeSG mobile app by 30 November 2024.
Once the credits have been disbursed, an SMS will be sent from the gov.sg Sender ID to the national serviceman’s registered mobile number, and a notification letter will be sent to their registered address.
Validity and accessibility
The LifeSG credits are valid for one year from the date of disbursement.
National servicemen may access the credits and check their validity period through the LifeSG mobile app, which can be downloaded from the Apple App Store or Google Play Store at https://go.life.gov.sg/5yCp.
Additional Discounts and Promotions for using NS LifeSG Credits
Several participating merchants, including HomeTeamNS and SAFRA, will be offering additional discounts and promotions to all national servicemen when they make payment using the NS LifeSG Credits.
