Available Mobile Plans
A Singtel mobile plan for senior citizens is built around what older users actually need: simplicity, reliable coverage, scam protection and a sensible data allowance — without paying for gigabytes you'll never use. Commercial senior plans such as Singtel's Savvy Silver-style offerings are open to Singapore citizens and PRs aged 60 and above, and these are the plans listed on this page.
Two different things — don't confuse them
- IMDA Mobile Access for Seniors (subsidised): a government scheme priced at roughly $5.09/month for the first 24 months (reverting to about $10.18/month after). It requires a redemption letter, attending the Seniors Go Digital programme, and learning at least one basic digital skill at an SG Digital Community Hub. It is not booked through us.
- Commercial senior plans (e.g. Singtel Savvy Silver): open to anyone 60+, no subsidy or special eligibility needed. These are the plans you can compare and sign up for here.
What matters most for seniors
You don't need a huge data bundle — most seniors do fine on a modest allowance for messaging, calls and the occasional video. You also don't need a 5G phone: 5G plans work perfectly on a 4G handset, you simply won't get 5G speeds. Built-in protections like ScamShield (call 1799) help guard against scam calls and messages, which is a big plus for older users.

Frequently asked questions
What is a senior mobile plan?+
It's a mobile plan designed for older users — usually citizens and PRs aged 60 and above — with straightforward pricing, dependable coverage and a right-sized data allowance. Commercial senior plans like Singtel Savvy Silver are open to all eligible seniors with no special application.
Am I eligible for the IMDA subsidised senior plan?+
The IMDA Mobile Access for Seniors scheme requires a redemption letter, attending the Seniors Go Digital programme, and learning at least one basic digital skill at an SG Digital Community Hub. It's priced around $5.09/month for the first 24 months. It is a separate government scheme and is not signed up for here.
Do I need a 5G phone to use a Singtel senior plan?+
No. A 5G plan works on a 4G phone — you simply get 4G speeds, which are more than enough for calls, messaging and everyday browsing. There's no need to buy a new handset just to use the plan.
Should a senior choose an eSIM or a physical SIM?+
A physical SIM is often simpler for seniors — pop it in and it works on almost any phone. An eSIM needs a compatible handset and a short setup, but avoids a physical card. If in doubt, a physical SIM is the easier choice.
How can seniors protect against scam calls and messages?+
Use the national ScamShield service — call 1799 to check suspicious calls or messages, and install the ScamShield app to filter scam SMSes. Never share OTPs or bank details over the phone, and verify unexpected requests independently.
