SINGAPORE: Singapore travellers can now use DBS PayLah! to pay at over 250,000 participating merchants across Taiwan, starting on Wednesday (Oct 21).
PayLah! users can scan eligible Taiwan QR codes (TWQR) from participating providers, including iPass Money, Taiwan Pay, PXPay Plus and Easy wallet, at merchants displaying the TWQR acceptance mark or QR payment notices bearing the TWQR label.
Users can pay by opening the latest version of the PayLah! app and scanning the QR code.
Before confirming payment, users can view the amount in Taiwan dollars, the applicable exchange rate and the final amount payable in Singapore dollars.
PayLah! is available to users without a DBS or POSB bank account.

The more than 250,000 participating merchants cover about two-thirds of the TWQR merchant network, with payment acceptance expected to expand as more TWQR providers come on board, DBS said.
These include night markets, local eateries and retailers at popular tourist destinations in Taiwan.
DBS is the first Singapore bank to connect its customers to Taiwan’s TWQR network, adding to its existing coverage across Indonesia’s QRIS, Malaysia’s DuitNow, Thailand’s PromptPay and UnionPay globally.
PayLah! users are expected to make QR payments across the full participating TWQR merchant network in 2027, including those bearing JKO Pay QR codes. Separately, DBS customers in Taiwan are expected to be able to scan SGQR codes at participating merchants in Singapore using their digibank app in 2027.
DBS will also introduce a merchant-scan-customer payment option in Taiwan, allowing major retailers in Taiwan to scan PayLah! user QR codes.
“We’re working with partners to bring more of these systems within reach of our customers, so that paying overseas feels as familiar and straightforward as it does at home”, said Chan Sow Han, the head of payments and unsecured lending at DBS Singapore.
To encourage more travellers to use cross-border QR payments, DBS will offer cashback capped at S$3 to customers new to PayLah!’s overseas QR payment service.
From Nov 16, 2026, to Jan 31, 2027, eligible customers can receive cashback when they scan to pay in Taiwan, Malaysia, Thailand or Indonesia with no minimum spend required.
The launch brings to market the cross-border payment initiative announced in April 2026 between Singapore’s NETS and Taiwan’s Financial Information Service Co (FISC), which developed the TWQR network.
The launch also builds on strong travel ties between Singapore and Taiwan, with Singapore ranking among Taiwan’s top 10 visitor source markets in 2025.

星展银行表示，超过 25 万家参与商户覆盖了 TWQR 商户网络的约三分之二，随着更多 TWQR 提供商的加入，支付受理范围预计将会扩大。
其中包括台湾热门旅游景点的夜市、当地餐馆和零售店。
星展银行是新加坡首家将其客户接入台湾TWQR网络的银行，进一步扩展了其在印尼QRIS、马来西亚DuitNow、泰国PromptPay和银联等全球网络中的现有覆盖范围。
PayLah! 用户预计在 2027 年即可在所有参与 TWQR 的商户网络中使用二维码支付，包括带有 JKO Pay 二维码的商户。此外，预计台湾星展银行客户也将能够在 2027 年使用其 digibank 应用程序在新加坡的参与商户处扫描 SGQR 二维码。
星展银行还将在台湾推出商户扫码顾客支付选项，允许台湾主要零售商扫描 PayLah! 用户二维码。
“我们正在与合作伙伴共同努力，让更多客户能够使用这些系统，从而使海外支付感觉像在国内一样熟悉和直接，”星展银行新加坡支付和无担保贷款主管陈秀涵表示。
为了鼓励更多旅客使用跨境二维码支付，星展银行将向首次使用 PayLah! 海外二维码支付服务的客户提供最高 3 新元的现金返还。
从 2026 年 11 月 16 日至 2027 年 1 月 31 日，符合条件的顾客在台湾、马来西亚、泰国或印度尼西亚扫码支付时可获得现金返还，无需最低消费。
此次发布将新加坡 NETS 与台湾金融信息服务公司（FISC）于 2026 年 4 月宣布的跨境支付计划推向市场，FISC 开发了 TWQR 网络。
此次合作也建立在新加坡和台湾之间牢固的旅游联系之上，新加坡在2025年将位列台湾十大游客来源市场之列。
