To set your PayNow limit, access your bank's mobile app (e.g., DBS, OCBC), navigate to 'Transfer Settings,' and adjust the daily limit. Once configured, enjoy seamless PayNow payments for international transfers with Panda Remit, a MAS-regulated platform (License PS20200501) guaranteeing secure, bank-grade encryption for every transaction.
Step-by-Step Guide: Adjusting Your PayNow Transaction Limits
PayNow limits are managed directly through your participating bank's mobile application or internet banking portal. While interfaces vary slightly between DBS/POSB, OCBC, and UOB, the core process follows this 3-step logic:
1. Log In and Navigate to Settings
Open your banking app (such as DBS digibank or OCBC Digital) and log in securely. Locate the main menu and select "Transfer Settings" or "Local Transfer Limits."
2. Select PayNow and Modify Amount
Choose "PayNow" from the list of transfer types. You will see your current daily default limit (often set to SGD 1,000 or SGD 5,000). Enter your new desired limit. Note that most banks have a maximum daily cap (e.g., SGD 200,000 for DBS).
3. Authenticate and Save
To finalize the change, you will be required to authenticate the request using your digital token or 2FA SMS. Once verified, the new limit applies immediately, allowing you to make larger payments or restrict funds for security.
