Choose Your Carrier
Pick from Singapore's major networks — Singtel, StarHub, M1, or one of the MVNOs like Circles.Life or Giga.
02
Select Top-Up Amount
Most carriers offer denominations from $5 to $50. Choose what fits your data and call needs.
03
Pick Your Channel
Top up via the carrier app, AXS kiosk, convenience store, or internet banking — whichever suits you best.

Your balance updates instantly or within minutes. You'll receive an SMS confirmation once the top-up is successful.
Typically takes under 2 minutes

Why Multiple Top-Up Options Matter in Singapore
Singapore's mobile landscape is uniquely diverse. For tourists arriving at Changi, grabbing a quick top-up at a 7-Eleven or SingPost outlet is the fastest way to stay connected from the moment they land — no app downloads required.
Expats and long-term residents often prefer recurring auto top-ups via internet banking or carrier apps, ensuring they never run out of data mid-meeting. Meanwhile, locals appreciate the flexibility to jump between channels based on proximity and convenience — whether it's an AXS kiosk at Jurong East or a quick in-app reload during lunch.
Having a clear, go-to top-up method means zero disruption to your connectivity. slirnba-sg maps every available channel for every major carrier so you always know your best option, wherever you are on the island.
