      How to receive money via PayNow?

      You can easily activate PayNow and receive payments via QR code or VPA.

      Notes:

      • Aspire PayNow currently does not support using UEN, mobile number, and NRIC/FIN to receive funds. Please visit this page to upvote this feature and track progress.
      • Always ensure that the Paynow transfer has been deducted from your client's bank before you release any goods/services. More details on this article.

      Your account is equipped with a Virtual Payment Address (VPA) feature, enabling you to securely and effortlessly receive funds to your account. Visit this article to learn more about the supported payment application.

      Note! If there has been NO PayNow activity after a certain period of time of receiving your QR Code and VPA details, they will be automatically deactivated. 

       

      How to activate PayNow 

      Please note that PayNow can only be activated for businesses incorporated in Singapore.

      Admins can easily activate PayNow within the Aspire app by selecting SGD Account from the home dashboard and then clicking on PayNow details.

      Note: After you request to activate your PayNow details in-app, you should receive an email from us (Email Subject: We have received your PayNow request for [Company Name]) that requires you to complete this Paynow Request Form.

      Do respond to our email within 3 days, otherwise, your PayNow activation request will be cancelled. 

      You should receive another email confirmation once your PayNow details are activated. Once activated, you will be presented with two options to receive payments via PayNow—QR code and VPA.
