The August round of the DBS/POSB Singapore Airlines discount is now open. Promo code DBS50OFF takes S$50 off each adult’s return fare, for up to two passengers on one booking — so up to S$100 off a trip for two, in any cabin, to any destination Singapore Airlines flies to from Singapore.

Your booking has to be a return trip whose first boarding point is Singapore — the whole itinerary has to start there, so one-way and open-jaw bookings do not work. Both the outbound and the inbound flight must be operated by Singapore Airlines, which rules out codeshare flights. Outbound travel has to fall inside the travel period above. The discount applies to the fare only, not to taxes, fees, or extras like seat selection, baggage and insurance. Child and infant tickets get a prorated discount rather than the full S$50.
The catch: redemptions are limited and issued first-come, first-served, so the quota is the real deadline rather than 17 August — DBS lists all six rounds from January to June as fully redeemed. You will know the month’s quota is gone when the promo code field on Singapore Airlines’ website returns “This promo code has expired. Re-enter another promo code.” And the code is not refundable: if you book with it and later cancel or rebook, you do not get it back.
If you miss this one, the quota refreshes on the second Tuesday of each month — 8 September, 13 October, 10 November and 8 December 2026.
The full promo code terms are on Singapore Airlines’ promotions page, and DBS lists the offer on its own Singapore Airlines page.
Which DBS Card To Pay With
Any DBS or POSB card unlocks the code, so the only question is which one earns most on the booking itself.
- DBS Woman’s World Mastercard — 4 mpd on the online booking, up to S$1,000 of online spend a month, then 0.4 mpd. The DBS Points expire a year after you earn them.
- DBS Vantage — 1.5 mpd on local spend and 10 lounge visits a year, with miles that expire after three years. The S$599.50 annual fee is no longer waivable by spend.
- DBS Altitude — 1.3 mpd on local spend, 2 lounge visits a year, and the miles never expire.
- DBS Live Fresh and POSB Everyday — both unlock the code, but a flight sits at their 0.3% base rate.
- DBS yuu — unlocks the code like any other DBS card, but its 10 mpd only applies at yuu merchants like Cold Storage, Giant and SimplyGo. Singapore Airlines is not one, so a flight earns 0.14 mpd, the lowest here.

My Take
S$100 off a booking for two is worth more than the miles you earn on the same spend — a S$1,000 booking on Woman’s World earns 4,000 miles, which I value at S$50 to S$60. So the card you pay with matters less here than getting in before the quota runs out. Applying for a DBS card today will not help you this round, but it sets you up for the September window.
