SingPost Introduces Asia's First Digital Stamp for Domestic Mail

• A convenient, digital way to mail letters within Singapore, marking World Post Day 2026
• Complements SingPost@MyBlock network which has been rolled out across more than 20,000 residential blocks 
• Introductory trial rates start from $1 for a set of five stamps, valid until 6 April 2027

SINGAPORE, Oct. 8, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Singapore Post Limited (SingPost) today commenced the public trial phase for Asia's first Digital Stamp, marking a regional milestone in a postage system for everyday domestic mail, in conjunction with World Post Day 2026. The service allows senders to buy postage instantly via the SingPost mobile app and post a letter or postcard without physical stamps or labels.

From now till 6 April 2027, SingPost is seeking public feedback in this pilot trial phase through a survey within the mobile app. This initial phase enables SingPost to refine user experience, optimise optical character recognition (OCR) scanning accuracy, and fine-tune operational workflows under real-world posting volumes.

Hyper-Convenient Postage for Everyday Use 
Buying a physical stamp traditionally meant visiting a post office, a SingPost vending machine, or a Self-Service Kiosk. Digital Stamps allow postage to be purchased anywhere, at any time, through the SingPost mobile app and used immediately.

"When we looked at the mailing experience, the friction point was always the same — you have written your card, addressed your envelope, and then realised you have no stamp. Digital Stamps remove that barrier entirely. As Asia's first app-integrated postage code, it is as simple as buying a code on your phone, writing it on the envelope, and posting it at your block. Coupled with SingPost@MyBlock, we are making posting a letter as seamless as sending a message."

"The trial phase is important to us — we want to hear from customers and get the experience right before we build further. The designs will evolve with the seasons and with Singapore's occasions. We are just getting started," said Gan Heng, Head of Customer Experience, SingPost.

Complementary Solution to SingPost@MyBlock
The introduction of digital stamps builds on SingPost's ongoing modernisation of its postal and logistics services, directly complementing the rollout of SingPost@MyBlock. Completed by September 2026 across over 20,000 buildings, residents across Singapore can use the "Return Mail" slot in existing letterbox nests where available, to post letters and small parcels.

Preserving Heritage in Digital Stamps 
The mobile app retains traditional philatelic aesthetics, featuring the 61st National Day design for Standard Regular mail (S$0.62) and a World Post Day Otter design for Standard Large mail (S$0.90). Digital stamp artwork will be refreshed periodically for festive and national occasions. Every 15th purchase unlocks a special design. Presently this special design features the Fullerton Building - home of Singapore's first General Post Office as the surprise stamp design.

How it works

• Buy: Purchase Digital Stamps on the SingPost app and get the unique codes instantly.
• Write: Write a code clearly in dark blue or black ink, in the top-right corner of the envelope, where a stamp would normally go.
• Post: Drop the letter into any posting box, post office, or the "Return Mail" slot at residential letterbox nests following the rollout of SingPost@MyBlock.

The stamps cover basic mail (letters, postcards, and printed paper items in a paper envelope) for domestic delivery within Singapore.

Pilot Trial Phase and Introductory Promotional Rates
To encourage public adoption, registered users on the SingPost mobile app can purchase introductory trial sets - a set of five Standard Regular Digital Stamps for S$1.00 (usual price S$3.10) and a set of five Standard Large Digital Stamps for S$1.50 (usual price S$4.50). One promotional set of each denomination may be purchased per customer. Digital Stamps purchased at the promotional rate are valid for posting through 6 April 2027.
