METROREMIT (SINGAPORE) FAQs

Yes. However, please note that PERSONAL/PHYSICAL DEPOSIT TO DBS ACCOUNT IS NOT ACCEPTED. Instead, you may send your payment via online banking to MetroRemit SG within an hour:
| Account Information | |
| Bank Name | DBS Bank |
| Account Name | MetroRemitSG |
| Account number | 0039208154 |
Can I fund my account without registering as beneficiary?
No, you need to register beneficiaries for all remittances initiated using the app. However, you can modify or delete these beneficiaries anytime.
Why do I need to register myself as a beneficiary?
Because you’re funding your FirstMetroSec account, which you registered under your name. This would also distinguish your account funding transaction from your regular remittances. Make sure to enter “FirstMetroSec” and your FirstMetroSec account number, as instructed above.
How do I know the status of my transaction?
You may review all your transactions in the Transaction Status page on the MetroRemit SG app/website.
What are the fees and charges?
A service fee of SGD4 will be charged per transaction.
Is there a transfer limit?
The mobile app daily transaction limit is SGD12,000. For higher amounts, please visit the MetroRemit SG branch.
How do I know if my transaction was successful?
You will be notified by MetroRemit via email.
Can I fund my FirstMetroSec account at the MetroRemit branch itself?
Yes, fill out the BILLS PAYMENT form with First Metro Securities Brokerage Corp. as biller/merchant, instead of remittance. Use Biller Reference No. 660.
