Some of us have hoarded our precious SingapoRediscovers Vouchers (SRV) in hopes of outwaiting and outwitting the crowds rushing to cash them in on staycays and trips to Universal Studios Singapore. If you’re guilty as charged, you’re in luck. Traveloka is now letting you combine promotions to give you the most mileage for your SRV dollar.
From credit card promos to an exclusive TSL code that requires no minimum spend, here’s how to squeeze out the most savings as you book anything from luxe hotel staycations to lesser-known things to do around Singapore’s “outback”.
It’s common knowledge that we’re each allocated $100 dollars worth of SingapoRediscover vouchers to play tourist in our own country, but beyond that, if you’re a DBS/POSB cardholder, you can actually combine coupon codes to score additional discounts.
For example, hotel bookings made with a DBS/POSB debit or credit card lets you nab 15% off the listed price tag with the code <DBSSRVH>. On the flip side, book an experience such as a Vespa sidecar tour and you’ll shave 10% off the listed price (capped at $10, with a min. spend of $30) with the code <DBSSRVX>.
Traveloka also has some other card discounts for other cardholders here.
As the final cherry on the cake, Traveloka also has an exclusive deal for TSL readers. Score a further $10 discount with the promo code <TVLKSMART>.
In summary, here are the steps:
Add these card discounts and cash back opportunities, and you’ll be hard pressed to settle on how to spend those credits. To give you a little SRV inspo, here are some staycation and activity highlights to spur you along.
CBD folk might reel at the thought of booking a staycay within a 2KM radius of their office, but the classy allure of The Fullerton Bay Hotel and its stunning views of MBS and the tranquil waters of the Singapore River will help you appreciate our financial district a little bit more.

Guaranteeing you delicious treats whether you’re peckish for fusion tacos and boozy margaritas over at Vatos Urban Tacos or up for classic French bistro faves at La Brasserie.

Get off the mainland and explore Singapore’s surrounds with a private yacht cruise around Sentosa and onwards toward Kusu Island, where you can soak up the breathtaking sea views and immerse yourself in the local myths and folklores as your private guide regales you with tales of the island’s past.
Once on shore, frolicking around the islands’ Bintan-esque beaches and lagoons or make a pilgrimage to the Da Bo Gong Temple or the Malay shrine to pray for your heart’s deepest desires. You’d be remiss to leave without hitting up the hundreds of tortoises at the tortoise sanctuary further inland.
Back at Sentosa, cap off the experience with a cable car ride and be treated to a bird’s eye view of the Harbourfront and Sentosa cityscape.
