Free parking in Singapore: Jewel, Wisma, Orchard, Sentosa, MBS and more (2022), Lifestyle News & More Latest News Here – Up Jobs

If I had to nominate one cliche that rings all-too-true in Singapore, it would be “there’s no such thing as a free lunch”. Every year, more and more of our favourite car parks decide to stop offering free parking. But we’d like to reassure you that there are still some places where parking is free… somewhat.

Here are 15 of the most popular carparks in Singapore, and how you can get free parking while you’re there.

Whether you’re a car owner or a frequent car sharing user (hello Car Club, GetGo, and BlueSG people!), save this handy guide for your next trip.

There’s truly no better cheap thrill and fast track to happiness in life than seeing $0.00 at the exit gantry. *Smiles uncontrollably while driving up the exit ramp.

If you’re driving GetGo, you can redeem a $5 Jewel retail voucher and two-hour free parking coupon at Jewel Changi. You need to go to level one customer concierge and show them your GetGo booking. Ends Aug 31 with limited redemptions again.
