We can’t live without food delivery services like Foodpanda, Deliveroo, and GrabFood these days, especially when we’re too busy working from home or are just too lazy to cook.
Besides, why would you want to queue for bubble tea anymore? It’s quite annoying having to wait for them to prepare like 10 cups of bubble tea for the food delivery rider in front of you (obviously someone ordered for their neighbours to get free delivery).
Take the opportunity to save a few bucks with these food delivery promo codes, and get extra discounts with the credit cards you own.

Foodpanda is presently the most competitive food delivery player in Singapore, at least when it comes to promo codes. Above are the ones you can get with your Citibank, DBS/POSB, and UOB credit cards.
In addition to the credit card promos, Foodpanda also gives away MORE promo codes for selected Foodpanda merchants, Foodpanda Shops and Pandamart. Both are pretty useful when you want to order some groceries or alcohol quickly.

If you like cheap local food, there’s an up-and-coming food delivery app called WhyQ that’s worth a try.
Rather than ordering from the usual fast food or fast-casual chains, WhyQ sends their riders to hawker centres in your area. You can order dishes from different stalls, which is perfect if you and your S/O never seem to agree on food choices.
The delivery fee is an affordable $1.50 and there’s a ton of promo codes to make use of. You get discounts for DBS, UOB, OCBC, Standard Chartered, Citibank, Bank of China, CIMB, and all Mastercards.
Best credit cards for your food delivery habit
If you frequently order in food, it’s worthwhile to check out which credit cards can give you some rebates or miles for your meal. Just note the required minimum order and delivery fees that differ based on factors like location and restaurant.
You’d think that food deliveries would automatically be included under the “dining” category… but that’s no the case for all banks.
There are credit cards that explicitly state so though, such as the Citi Cashback card that currently has ongoing food delivery promotions and the OCBC 365 card that offers 6% rebate on online dining expenses.
The thing about ordering food online is that it can fall under the “online spending” category too. If you’re into cashback, you can consider the DBS Live Fresh Card (up to 5 per cent cashback on online spend).
If you prefer miles, there’s the Citi Rewards Card that gives you 10X rewards ($1 = 4 miles) for online shopping.
