Where to use CDC Vouchers 2026
If there’s anything Singaporeans can agree on, it’s that free things must take. After all, the only thing better than a good deal is not having to pay a thing at all. In case you’ve not heard, we’re getting a new set of CDC Vouchers ahead of time in June 2026, and each household will be able to claim a total of $500 worth of vouchers.
If you don’t already know, the use of the CDC Vouchers is split 50-50 between hawkers, heartland merchants, and supermarkets. But that doesn’t mean you’re relegated to utilising them just at hawkers and participating supermarkets. Here’s where to use your CDC Vouchers, including things to do, eat, and buy that you might not have known about.

What are CDC vouchers?
In recent news, the government has brought forward the latest tranche: $500 worth of vouchers will now be released in June 2026 instead of January 2027, in response to the rising cost of living due to the conflict in the Middle East. The CDC Vouchers released in June 2026 will be valid until 31 December 2027.
Note that unlike SG60 Vouchers, CDC Vouchers are allocated based on your household’s address, rather than individually. So, each household will receive 1 set of CDC vouchers worth $500 in total in June 2026.
But before you run with the idea that you can use the $500 to get yourself a fresh pair of kicks or some bubble tea, hold up! You can’t use the CDC vouchers just anywhere. After all, this initiative is not just meant to help households, but also to support heartland merchants and hawkers.
How to claim & redeem your vouchers
In case you are unfamiliar, redeeming your vouchers is actually quite a simple affair. For starters, all you have to do is visit the CDC vouchers redemption website on mobile or desktop, log in with your Singpass, and claim your vouchers. Only 1 member of your household will have to do this.
After the first person from a household claims the vouchers, they’ll receive a unique link sent to them via SMS. Afterwards, the rest of the household can start using them by accessing the page on mobile via this link.

To use the vouchers at a participating merchant, simply select how much you want to redeem in that particular transaction. The vouchers come in denominations of $2, $5, and $10.
After which, a QR code will be generated, and all you have to do is to show this QR code to the merchant, who will scan it and offset the corresponding amount from your purchase. All in all, pretty easy and no-frills!
Where can you use your vouchers?
In total, the $500 is split into 2 categories: $250 for supermarkets and $250 for local heartland merchants like hawker stalls. Here are some places where you can use your CDC vouchers:
Supermarkets
As mentioned, you’ll be able to use up to $250 worth of supermarket CDC vouchers to fund your grocery runs. Plus, you’re not limited to just shopping at major supermarkets either. Apart from well-known chains around Singapore like FairPrice, Prime Supermarket, Sheng Siong, Cold Storage, HAO Mart, and U Stars, you can also use your vouchers at smaller supermarkets found in your neighbourhood.
To be sure that the supermarket you are visiting accepts CDC vouchers, check that it displays the following yellow decal:

Take note that this $250 amount won’t be transferable with the other $250 meant for local merchants, and vice versa.
Visit the CDC website to check out a full list of participating supermarkets.
Eateries
CDC voucher-eligible hawker stalls make up a majority of participating merchants, and you can use them to either offset the cost of your food or to pay it off directly. Similar to supermarkets, participating stalls would have to display the following teal decal, so do check beforehand:

You’ll also find that quite a number of other eateries like restaurants and cafes are also on the CDC website’s list of participating hawkers and heartland merchants, so here are a couple for you to check out.
1. Cafe Wabi Sabi
Japanese cafe with rice bowls & sandos
2 things Singaporeans can never have enough of: Japan and cafe hopping. Which is why Cafe Wabi Sabi is the best place to use your CDC voucher on, as it hits all the marks with their Japanese-themed menu. They’re known for their sandos that are made with housemade shokupan.

The fluffy milk bread is what holds classic fillings like tamagoyaki ($10.90), which also has egg salad and mixed greens; and beef steak ($16.90) that comes topped with caramelised onions. The sandwiches are stuffed to the brim, but if you want to fill up further, you can add on fries for $3.50.
Sukiyaki don.

If you must have rice, there are also various donburi bowls that are served with miso soup. Popular ones include sukiyaki don ($15.90), which has pork belly and an onsen egg; and salmon mentai don ($22.90) with sashimi salmon and mentaiko sauce.
Cafe Wabi Sabi review: “The bread was lightly toasted and yummy. The torched cheese gave a light tint of smokey flavour. The white coffee was delightful and well-presented. The staff casually checks if you’re done with your mains to serve desserts.Great ambience to get some work done, and there are power points too.” – jiyong lim via Google maps

2. Cafe Fufu
Wood-fired pizzas from $15
Image credit: Eatbook
Wood-fired pizza sounds like something you’d get at a fancy Italian restaurant, but they’re readily available at Cafe Fufu, a hole-in-the-wall eatery under an HDB block in Redhill. These pizzas are made from sourdough, which adds a tangy kick to the crust. What you get is crunch on the outside, and a tender chew on the inside, making it one of the best places where pizza-lovers can use their CDC voucher at.
Pizza Salami.

The signature is the Pizza Fufu (from $20), which uses a coriander pesto base that is topped with prawns, dried tomatoes, and chilli flakes. If you want something more conventional, there’s the Pizza Salami (from $18), which sees salami slices on a tomato base. The whole pie is drizzled in a savoury and fragrant oregano olive oil.
Cafe Fufu review: “We ordered the salmon pasta and the pizza salami and we both enjoyed both thoroughly. The pasta was not overcooked, and it wasn’t overly creamy. As for the pizza salami, we felt the ingredients were fresh and for a woodfire pizza, the dough was not overcooked & perfectly chewy.” – Michelle Chiu via Google Maps
3. Bailey and Whiskey
Pet-friendly cafe serving all-day brunch
Tucked along Depot Road lies Bailey and Whiskey, make full use of your CDC voucher at this pet-friendly cafe serving all-day brunch.
