What the $760 Relief Payout Covers
The Singapore $760 Relief Payout is delivered through the U Save programme under the Assurance Package and Cost of Living support measures. Instead of cash transfers, the rebate is applied directly to SP Services utility accounts. It lowers bills for electricity, water and gas without requiring any application. This system ensures clear and direct savings for eligible households throughout the financial year.
Key Features of the 2025 Payout
The payout is structured to ensure progressive support for households across different HDB flat types. Smaller flats receive a higher rebate amount because they are more likely to be occupied by lower income families. Each quarter brings a fresh credit, which appears automatically in the household’s SP Services account.

Eligibility Rules for the $760 Payout
Eligibility for the 2025 U Save relief payout is based on household type, citizenship and property ownership. The flat must be an HDB unit with at least one Singapore Citizen listed as owner, occupier or tenant. Households where any member owns more than one property are excluded to keep the scheme fair and targeted. Rented HDB flats may still qualify as long as a Singapore Citizen tenant resides there. Private residential homes remain ineligible.
Quarterly Payment Schedule for FY 2025
The payout is divided into four equal parts across October, November, December and January. Each payout combines regular U Save amounts with additional top ups depending on the quarter. Credits appear directly in SP Services accounts and unused amounts roll forward to the next bill.
• October 2025
• November 2025
• December 2025
• January 2026
This approach spreads utility relief evenly and provides consistent bill support throughout the year.

Additional Help Through CDC Vouchers
Alongside U Save rebates, households will also receive $800 in CDC Vouchers across two releases. The first release of $500 arrives in October 2025 and the second release of $300 follows in January 2026. These vouchers can be used at hawker centres, heartland shops and participating supermarkets, offering support for food and daily necessities while U Save covers utility relief.
What to Expect on Your Utility Bill
Once eligible, the rebate appears automatically on the household’s SP Services account. Each quarterly bill shows the U Save amount used to offset charges and any remaining balance. If credits do not appear, households should confirm their flat records, citizenship details and account linkage with SP Services.
Useful Checklist to Avoid Missing Credits
• Ensure at least one Singapore Citizen is listed in the household records
• Update ownership or tenancy details if changes occurred
• Confirm the correct SP Services account is linked to the HDB address
• Review bill statements each quarter to track posted credits
• Plan CDC Voucher usage to maximise food and essential spending
