Discontinuation of EZ-Link facility on Simply Cash Credit Card from 1 June 2024

 

Dear Clients,

 

Following the announcement by LTA on 9 Jan 2024, Standard Chartered Simply Cash Cardholders will not be able to use the EZ-Link facility on their cards from 1 June 2024.

 

While your Simply Cash Credit Card cannot be upgraded to SimplyGo EZ-Link, you have the option to switch your Card’s payment mode to contactless payment via the Assisted Service Kiosks or Top-Up Kiosks located at all MRT and LRT stations, and bus interchanges. The remaining stored value in your Card will remain in the EZ-Link account/purse and can be used for retail purchases. Alternatively, you can get a refund of the remaining stored value at any SimplyGo Ticket Office. Upon refund, you will not be able to use the EZ-Link functionality anymore.

 

This change is part of LTA’s transition towards the SimplyGo system which was first introduced in 2019. With the growing adoption of SimplyGo payment methods, and the legacy card-based ticketing system nearing the end of its operational lifespan, LTA is therefore transitioning all adult commuters to the SimplyGo platform by 1 June 2024.
