Back by popular demand, YouTrip’s highly awaited Referral Programme allows you to invite all your friends to YouTrip — and earn some $$ while you’re at it.
Remember the last time your friends saw you using your YouTrip card to gain some mega savings online and asked you about it? You proudly showed them the app and boasted about its benefits, expecting nothing but oohs and ahhs but instead you were met with that one dreaded colloquial statement of unwarranted judgement — “Bojio!” (For our non-Singaporean friends, this passive-aggressive exclamation equates to: “what a great friend you are, keeping such a gem from us I hope you’re proud of yourself.” ). And to that we say, “don’t say we never jio” — introducing the YouTrip Referral Programme.
What’s YouTrip Referral Programme?
After your next YouTrip app update, you’ll notice a grey banner in the top half of your homepage that says ‘Invite your friends to YouTrip’. This is your chance to demonstrate how good a friend you are. Show them you care by sharing the joys of being able to shop without unnecessary bank fees or pesky exchange rates with the YouTrip Referral Programme.
The best part? Get and give S$5 to an unlimited number of people you invite to join YouTrip! You can refer an unlimited number of people to your favourite multi-currency mobile wallet and get, plus give, S$5 for every one who signs up!
Psst! For those of you who are planning to spam your friends and family group chats with your referral links, we’ve included a handy tracker right below your link so that you can stay up to date on your earnings as well as your completed and pending referrals. (P.S.: Every unique referral link generated is valid only for 90 days. This will be refreshed automatically after.)
Bonus: Get Extra S$50 For Your First 10 Referrals!
Why keep something good to yourself when you can share it with your loved ones? We are all about spreading the good word, thus adding in an extra one-time S$50 bonus upon 10 successful referrals with the YouTrip Referral Programme. If you’re amongst the first 250 to hit three successful referrals on the app, you’ll get an extra S$15!
How do I invite my friends to YouTrip?
Before you start selling the idea to your mates — here are some simple but essential steps and pointers to note about the YouTrip Referral Programme so that all your referrals get completed properly.
Step 1: Simply copy referral link generated in app
After clicking on the grey banner on your homepage, you’ll be brought to another page with your own personalised link that you can copy and paste to whichever chat you need to. We made it extra easy with buttons to your favourite chat messengers like WhatsApp, Telegram and Facebook Messenger.
Step 2: Referee must sign up by clicking through the link
Okay this is the part that you need to make sure your referee gets right. If your referee clicks on the link but doesn’t follow through on that same window, you will not receive the five bucks. We suggest stressing the importance of this to your pals for the sake of your wallet. Repeat after me: ‘referees must sign up by clicking through the link’.
Step 3: Referee must activate and make a top-up (no min amount) for referral to be counted as successful
After signing up, they should receive the card in the mail a few days later. Now all they have to do is activate their card by keying in their 10-digit Y-number located at the bottom-left corner of their YouTrip card — there will be an ‘activate now’ button sent through a verification email. Thereafter, a quick top-up of any value can be done and the referral will be a success!

Why Join YouTrip?
Back when travel was still a thing, Singapore’s first ever multi-currency wallet was a godsend for travellers because it was the cheapest way to go cashless no matter where you were. This is mainly because of how there are no transaction fees but also, competitive exchange rates so you always get bang for every buck! While all those things still hold true despite the suspension on travel thanks to the pandemic, we found other ways to make the most with our YouTrip card — i.e. through killer staycation deals and great savings! (Psst, check out these promo codes with Love Bonito, Cult Beauty, Zalora, and more!)
