Huat Pals 2024: How to Collect Fast

Pay to Non-retail Merchants

Thankfully, the PayNow payments made to merchants don’t have to be physical.

PayNow transactions include:

  1. E-Wallet top-ups like Singtel Dash QR top-ups
  2. ShopeePay
  3. Klook PayNow
  4. Chocolate Finance
  5. Topping up your Central Provident Fund (CPF) using PayNow QR. Take note that you can only do this ONCE at a time — do not scan the QR code created for one top-up multiple times
  6. Any payments made to the Inland Revenue Authority of Singapore (IRAS) using PayNow QR
  7. AXS bill payments.

Note: As of the time of writing, YouTrip PayNow top-up didn’t work for my colleague and me.

The easiest way to go would be AXS bill payments because almost every working adult owns a credit card!

Gifting an e-ang bao via Google Pay is mutually beneficial, so if your single friend doesn’t mind, you know what to do.

Using image recognition technology, you can use your Google Pay app to scan items that you will come across during house visits – oranges and paper lanterns with Huat Scanner to earn special vouchers from local partners such as Irvin’s, Klook, Shopee, ShopBack, and Suntec+!

Each successful scan will earn you a Huat Pal or a reward.

Pro Tip: You can scan digital images, too, if you don’t have the item at home!

This year, the Huat Pals campaign added a new in-app game for you to earn more points so that you can win a Huat Pal!

Called the Huat Match, you need to match as many auspicious icons as possible with a limited number of moves. The goal is to score above 450 points to get a Huat Pal!

Afterthoughts

It seems like this year’s Huat Pals focuses more on gifting than sharing with friends as compared to the previous years.

Well, Huat Pals is a great way to earn some prizes this Chinese New Year, and I hope you get lucky too!
