Cards for transportation. Mobile Wallets for sure
It is recommended to use mobile wallets, such as Apple Pay, GPay, Samsung Pay, etc .as your EZ-Link Card for MRT and buses. The EZ-Link card is the most commonly used travel card by residents and returning visitors. However, it has non-refundable deposit of S$5. Mobile wallets, on the other hand, can be used without registration. Train and bus fares will be charged automatically to your bank account or credit / debit card bill. If you have foreign bank cards, you will incur an administrative fee of $0.60 per day of use and your bank's currency exchange and / or administrative fee. For short trips to Singapore, it is recommended to use mobile wallets.

Buy the hand letters from Changi Airport
Changi Airport continues to offer the Goods and Services Tax (GST) or tax-free for retail purchases made in the public areas of Terminals 1 to 4. This allows visitors to the airport to save 8% on GST. Additionally, purchases made at the point of departure are tax-free, so you don't have to pay GST when leaving Singapore.
