Since young, we’ve been taught that the only D that matters is discounts – which is where memberships come in. To appeal to our inner aunties, companies constantly tout their membership programmes, promising that you’ll unlock a Pandora’s box worth of deals and rewards by signing up.

But like all good things, there’s always a catch – most memberships come with high fees and if you’re cheapo financially-wise, you’d wanna save more by going for those that are completely free. Luckily, there exist memberships that cost nothing while still bringing amazing benefits – here are the best forever-free memberships all Singaporeans should sign up for!

 

1. J Passport
