Seniors who are unable to access National Service LifeSG credits via mobile application and those who are not comfortable with digital payments may ask the authorities for hard-copy vouchers.

- Ng Wei Kai

Senior Minister of State for Defence Zaqy Mohamad told Parliament on Nov 13 that more than a quarter of those receiving credits to recognise their contributions to Singapore's defence and security are above 60 years old.

The credits, which are worth $200, are being distributed to more than one million national servicemen, past and present, through November on government smartphone app LifeSG, and can be used to purchase a range of household and lifestyle goods and services.
