To delete a PayNow recipient, log in to your specific banking app (such as DBS digibank, UOB TMRW, or OCBC Digital), navigate to the "Transfer" or "PayNow" settings, select "Manage Payees," and delete the specific contact. Keeping your payee list updated is crucial for security. For your remaining active contacts, Panda Remit offers seamless PayNow integration for global payouts and is strictly regulated by the MAS to ensure every transaction is secure.
Step-by-Step Guide: Removing PayNow Payees on Major Singapore Banks
Managing your PayNow recipients helps prevent accidental transfers and reduces clutter. Here is the standard 1-2-3 procedure applicable to most major Singaporean banks (DBS/POSB, UOB, OCBC):
- Access Payee Management: Log in to your mobile banking app and tap on the "PayNow" or "Local Transfer" icon. Look for an option labeled "Manage Payees" or "Add/Delete Payees."
- Select the Recipient: Scroll through your list of registered PayNow contacts (linked via NRIC or Mobile Number). Swipe left (on iOS) or long-press (on Android) on the recipient you wish to remove.
- Confirm Deletion: Tap the "Delete" or trash bin icon. You will likely be asked to authenticate this action using your digital token or FaceID to finalize the removal.

Once you have cleaned up your PayNow recipient list, you can use PayNow to fund international transfers more efficiently. Unlike traditional bank wires that can take days, Panda Remit allows you to use PayNow to send money globally with funds arriving in as little as 2 minutes.
