If I register today (29th Mar which is the last day) but deposit tomorrow, then, will not be eligible for the promotion right (e.g. $688 for top-up of $150k) ? All (registration + top-up) must be performed by today?

Thanks
Yes, need to be funded today. Process is superfast cos everything is online. From experience amount will be earmarked mid month around 16 -17 mth until 18 Aug 2025. $688 will be credited once funds are earmarked . BUT not sure when interest rate will fall...

Does anyone knows if I make a FAST Transfer deposit to SingLife on this Sunday ,
and fully withdraw on the following day, will I be getting the 3% interest for that specific Sunday ?

If yes, Is there any cut of timing for deposits made on Sundays ?

Logically should recv,
makesure to leave in $100 there for policy to be active,
but say you deposit $10k 1day interest only $0.85 cents. If you deposit more than 10k, your effective interest wont be 3% anyways.
In either case not worth it, rather park in gxs nr maribank if its temporary!

But the singlife needs a min 800 topup per period and returns 3% (2.5+0.5 bonus) between $800 up to the 1st $10k.

This gimmick...

So i add 10k today, zero the account on 01 April then top up back the 10k on 02 April to meet the condition?
its 3.5% (3+0.5 bonus), and even if the $800 topup is tricky but the base 3% on 10k itself is fuss free.

Topup period dates and amt to earn bonus, can check in the app tracker I beliv.

Can earn the 0.5% top-up bonus interest for the whole top-up period as long as top up by the end of the period? Or only start earning from the day of top-up?

you only earn the extra 0.5% in the next top-up period / bonus return earning period.

so it is best to top up on the last day of the top-up period, so that the next day onwards you'll be earning the extra 0.5%.

e.g.
top-up period: 1 Mar - 31 Mar
bonus return earning period / next top-up period: 1 Apr - 30 Apr

top up to $10,000 on 31 Mar, and the $10,000 will earn 3% + 0.5% from 1 Apr - 30 Apr. The $10,000 will still get 3% on 31 Mar (that day only).

Can’t just see 1 dimensional. Interest was increased for a reason. So need to see the net effect.

so this may in fact be a good thing

I hv not been using SingLife for a long time....
If I top up 10k on Mon 31st March (public holiday) ,
I will be getting 3.5% (3+0.5%) ONLY on 31st Mar even if it is a public holiday right ?

Then I leave the 10k in there for all subsequent months , I will get 3% /annum each mth frm Apr only ya ?

Is the above method correct , or would it be more advisable for me to wait till 1st April to deposit - so I can get the 3.5% for whole of Apr?

Currently my SingLife is at $0

Mine states Bonus Return Earning Period :

So to get the 3.5%, I need to top up the 10k latest by 2nd March ?

Top up at least $800 ( more if you cannot find more than 3% for your next $9200) on 2 Apr.
On 3rd Apr…then top up $9200 to max the account to $10k, liddat you are getting 3.5% for the $10k.
