For those who aren’t acquainted with the FairPrice Group app, here’s a short explainer. Think of it as your one-stop shop for all things grocery and dining. Beyond just buying groceries, the app bundles in rewards, dining perks, and a super-handy digital wallet so you can go cashless and cardless.
You’ll also earn Linkpoints with every spend, which can be redeemed later for even more savings. Features like Scan & Go for fuss-free checkout, speedy delivery for your grocery runs, and access to exclusive promotion vouchers make it a time-saver for everyone. It’s a must-have for young shoppers, but also a great way for you to help older family members shop smarter without the stress.
But before enjoying perks from the FairPrice Group app, you should update your profile. It’s easy with the use of Myinfo.
Myinfo is a government-verified digital identity service that lets you securely share your personal details with trusted platforms. Signing in is straightforward – just log in with your Singpass to confirm your identity and you’re set.
The app pulls in key details like:
Do this once, and you’ll never have to key in the same details again – at least until your CHAS Blue/Orange card expires.
Here’s the biggest benefit of updating your profile: auto-applied discounts. This is applicable to Pioneer, Senior, Merdeka Generation, CHAS Blue and Orange cardholders for purchases in-store at FairPrice and Unity (excluding the airport stores). The CHAS discounts are also applicable online at FairPrice.
Every time you scan the “Pay/Earn” QR code in-app, your savings will be applied automatically.
Large families can also enjoy extra savings with the CHAS Large Families 6% Discount, available till 31st December 2025. In celebration of SG60, FairPrice Group has doubled the usual perks for households with 3 or more kids, helping stretch the grocery budget further. To qualify, the main shopper needs to be a CHAS Blue/Orange cardholder with 3 or more children under 18 and have updated their FairPrice Group app profile using Myinfo.
After you’ve done this, it’s worth helping your parents or grandparents set this up. That way, they won’t miss out on the extra savings.
You don’t have to stress about updating your profile – it actually takes less than 5 minutes. Here’s exactly how to do it:
To see what discounts you’re eligible for on the app, go to your account page and hit “Discount scheme” after you have updated your profile. You can also check it out via the “Pay/Earn” page.
Just note that it can take up to 15 minutes for the update to kick in, so help your folks update theirs before the next grocery run.
Another bonus: update your profile anytime from now till 30th September 2025 and you’ll instantly score a digital scratch card. Every card is a sure-win, so you’re guaranteed to walk away with something.
With our guide, it’s time to update your FairPrice Group app profile using Myinfo. It only takes a few taps, and once it’s done, discounts get auto-applied every time you shop. Plus, you’ll be setting your parents or grandparents up to save more on their grocery runs too.
Don’t forget to update your profile before 30th September 2025 to snag a sure-win scratch card on top of all that. Easy savings, added perks, and fewer things to worry about at checkout – sounds like a win for the whole fam.
