Singapore 2026 Sale Calendar: 9.9, 11.11, 12.12, Black Friday, and Boxing Day
Singapore 2026 has eight major sale windows. Electronics drop deepest on 11.11 and Black Friday, fashion on 12.12 and Boxing Day, beauty on 9.9 and 11.11.
Updated: October 2026.
The next 30 days decide most of Singapore's Q4 shopping, with 10.10 this Saturday on Shopee, Lazada, Amazon Singapore and Qoo10, so plan your buys, then check out through ShopBack before you pay, where ShopBack Cashback works like a discount, only easier than a promo code. 10.10 lands this Saturday 10 October on Shopee, Lazada, Amazon Singapore and Qoo10, and the 11.11 preview opens on 1 November ahead of Singles Day on Wednesday 11 November. Singapore's shopping year runs on a fixed sale drumbeat: eight major windows between August and December carry the majority of annual retail markdowns, and the trick is not to buy on every window but to match category to date, then pick the seller. This map tells you which of Lazada, Shopee or Amazon Singapore to buy from on each date. Use ShopBack to compare the three before you check out.
For context on the calendar's scale, the Department of Statistics Singapore's monthly Retail Sales Index tracks total retail turnover and publishes the online share of retail sales each month (SingStat Retail Sales Index). The Great Singapore Sale window is coordinated by the Singapore Retailers Association (Singapore Retailers Association). The Singapore public-holiday calendar published by the Ministry of Manpower confirms that Christmas Day 2026 falls on Friday 25 December, placing Boxing Day 26 December on a Saturday with the weekend clearance concentrated across 26 to 28 December (MOM Public Holidays 2026).
The verdict
For a Singapore buyer navigating the 2026 sale calendar, 11.11 (11 November) is the deepest window for electronics and Chinese-origin brands at 18 to 35 percent off list. Black Friday (27 November) matches or beats 11.11 for Western brands including Apple, Sony, Samsung, Nike, Adidas, Sephora at 20 to 35 percent off. Boxing Day (26 December) is the deepest fashion clearance at 30 to 60 percent off at department stores. 9.9 (9 September) peaked for K-beauty and skincare, especially Laneige, Innisfree, Beauty of Joseon, COSRX, at 20 to 40 percent off, and 10.10 (Saturday 10 October) is the next window on the calendar. 8.8 carried, and 12.12 will carry, travel and hotel discounts of 15 to 30 percent for Q4 and Q1 travel. The single biggest mistake is treating each window as identical; the calendar rewards category-specific timing. Check ShopBack on the day of each window for the live rate on Lazada, Shopee and Amazon Singapore before you pay.

Which marketplace to buy from: Lazada vs Shopee vs Amazon Singapore
The honest answer depends on what is in your cart and which window you are buying in. The calendar tells you the date; the seller still has to be chosen on that date, because the same item is often listed on all three at different prices after vouchers.
| Pick | Best for | When it is cheapest | Cashback path |
|---|---|---|---|
| Lazada | LazMall branded electronics, Chinese-origin appliances, sitewide 11.11 vouchers | 11.11 (Wed 11 Nov) and 12.12 (Sat 12 Dec), midnight voucher round | Activate ShopBack, then shop Lazada |
| Shopee | K-beauty flagships, Shopee Coins stacking, 10.10 beauty and home drops | 10.10 (Sat 10 Oct) and 11.11 (Wed 11 Nov) | Activate ShopBack, then shop Shopee |
| Amazon Singapore | Western brands (Apple, Sony, Dell, Bose), Prime early access, US imports | Black Friday to Cyber Monday (Fri 27 to Mon 30 Nov) | Activate ShopBack, then shop Amazon Singapore |
| Zalora | Fashion and sitewide clearance | 12.12 (Sat 12 Dec) and Boxing Day (Sat 26 Dec) | Activate ShopBack, then shop Zalora |
Use ShopBack to compare Lazada, Shopee and Amazon Singapore on the day, then buy from whichever wins after vouchers.
Where the sale-window differences come from
Four levers drive the depth and category spread of each 2026 sale window.
Lever 1: Retail origin and platform incentive alignment. 11.11 originated as Chinese Singles Day and is subsidised most heavily by Alibaba (Lazada parent) and Sea Group (Shopee parent). Chinese-origin brands and platform-native listings on Lazada and Shopee get the deepest 11.11 subsidy. Black Friday and Cyber Monday are US-origin retail events and are backed most heavily by Amazon Singapore, Apple, brand DTC sites, and department stores. Boxing Day is UK and Australian retail origin, adopted by Singapore mall retail (Isetan, Takashimaya, TANGS, Robinsons, Metro, Marks and Spencer) as a post-Christmas clearance window.
Lever 2: Category cycle timing. Electronics manufacturers plan year-end launches around Q3 (September iPhone, October Samsung Galaxy S Ultra refresh, November new-gen GPU launches). Existing inventory is discounted to clear ahead of new stock; 11.11 hits this cycle perfectly. Fashion runs autumn/winter drops from August, hitting terminal clearance around Boxing Day. Beauty ties to the K-beauty and prestige holiday gift cycle peaking in November and December. Travel ties to Chinese New Year and Q1 school holiday demand windows, driving 12.12 and 8.8 promotions.
Lever 3: Bank and card partnership stacks. DBS, UOB, OCBC, Citi, HSBC, and Standard Chartered issue tailored card promotions for each major sale window. Typical structure: 5 to 15 percent off with minimum-spend cap on Lazada, Shopee, Amazon Singapore, Zalora, iShopChangi, and select brand DTCs. Card promos can combine with platform discounts to produce effective discount rates above the headline platform discount. Read the fine print: minimum spend caps range S$60 to S$300, some promos exclude accessories or gift cards, and some limit per-cardholder monthly stacks.
Lever 4: Inventory clearance urgency. Windows near seasonal boundaries (Boxing Day post-Christmas, 12.12 pre-Christmas Chinese New Year) carry deeper clearance discounts because retailers race to clear seasonal stock before annual physical inventory or before spring collections arrive. Mid-cycle windows (10.10, 9.9) tend to be promotional-first rather than clearance-first, offering shallower discounts across broader assortments.
Layering the four: 11.11 wins on breadth and platform subsidy for e-commerce. Black Friday wins on Western brand depth. Boxing Day wins on fashion clearance depth. 12.12 wins on gift and travel timing. 9.9 wins on beauty.
The 2026 calendar, window by window
| Window | Date | Electronics | Fashion | Beauty | Travel | Best for |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 8.8 Sale | Sat 8 Aug 2026 | 10 to 20% off | 15 to 30% off | 15 to 25% off | 20 to 35% off hotel | Travel and hotel Q4/Q1 |
| 9.9 Sale | Wed 9 Sep 2026 | 15 to 25% off | 15 to 35% off | 20 to 40% off | 15 to 25% off hotel | K-beauty, skincare, homewares |
| 10.10 Sale | Sat 10 Oct 2026 | 12 to 22% off | 15 to 30% off | 15 to 25% off | 10 to 20% off hotel | DTC clearance pre-11.11 |
| 11.11 Singles Day | Wed 11 Nov 2026 | 18 to 35% off | 20 to 45% off | 20 to 40% off | 10 to 20% off hotel | Electronics, sitewide value |
| Black Friday | Fri 27 Nov 2026 | 20 to 35% off | 20 to 50% off | 20 to 35% off | 10 to 20% off hotel | Apple, Sony, Samsung, Nike, Sephora |
| Cyber Monday | Mon 30 Nov 2026 | 18 to 32% off | 20 to 45% off | 18 to 32% off | 10 to 18% off hotel | Software, laptops, digital services |
| 12.12 Sale | Sat 12 Dec 2026 | 15 to 25% off | 20 to 50% off | 18 to 32% off | 15 to 30% off hotel | Fashion, gifts, home decor, Q1 travel |
| Boxing Day | Sat 26 Dec 2026 | 12 to 22% off | 30 to 60% off | 20 to 40% off | 10 to 20% off hotel | Deepest fashion clearance of the year |
Discount ranges are indicative typical spreads from past sale windows at Lazada Singapore, Shopee Singapore, Amazon Singapore, Zalora, Sephora Singapore, Watsons, Nike Singapore, Adidas Singapore, Klook, Agoda, and major department stores. As of 2026-07-28 for pattern reference. Individual SKU discounts vary; hot references (the latest iPhone Pro, PlayStation 5, Nike Air Force 1, Sephora Rare Beauty) typically discount less than mid-tier and clearance lines. Bank card promotions can deepen this where applicable.
The readout: total accessible discount for an average Singapore buyer on a well-timed purchase runs 25 to 45 percent off list price. Bank card promotions and platform coins can lower the effective price further on qualifying orders, and going through ShopBack before you pay means part of what you pay comes back as Cashback.
How to use this
| Buyer profile | Recommended window | Why |
|---|---|---|
| New iPhone buyer waiting for a discount | Black Friday 27 Nov or Apple Back to School Jun-Jul | Apple bundle promotions with AirPods or gift cards; Apple rarely discounts iPhone directly |
| PlayStation 5 or Nintendo Switch buyer | 11.11 or Black Friday | Sony and Nintendo both run 15 to 25% off consoles and 25 to 40% off bundle games |
| Laptop buyer (Dell, HP, Lenovo, Asus) | Cyber Monday 30 Nov or 11.11 | DTC channel deepest on these brands; back-to-school windows in Jan and Jul secondary |
| MacBook Pro buyer | Apple Back to School Jun-Jul or Black Friday | Same bundle logic as iPhone; some resellers discount 3 to 7% during 11.11 |
| Uniqlo, H&M, or Zalora shopper | Boxing Day 26 Dec | Deepest seasonal clearance at 30 to 60% off; stock thin so shop early |
| Nike, Adidas, New Balance shopper | Black Friday 27 Nov or 11.11 | 25 to 45% off popular running and lifestyle lines; brand DTC and resellers align |
| Sephora, Watsons, Guardian buyer | 9.9 or 11.11 | 20 to 40% off across prestige beauty; card stack adds 5 to 10 percentage points |
| K-beauty buyer | 9.9 or 11.11 on Shopee, Lazada | Innisfree, Laneige, Sulwhasoo, Beauty of Joseon, COSRX peak on these windows |
| iHerb, supplements buyer | 11.11 or Cyber Monday | iHerb runs global sales with Singapore delivery; card stack via Citi and DBS |
| Travel bookings for Q1 2027 | 12.12 or 8.8 | Klook, KKday, Agoda, Booking.com hotel deals for Chinese New Year and school holiday |
| Flight bookings | 8.8, National Day promotions, 12.12 | Scoot, SIA, AirAsia typically run windowed fares here; 11.11 shallower on flights |
| Home appliances (fridge, washer, aircon) | 8.8 or Black Friday | Courts, Harvey Norman, Best Denki align on 25 to 40% off large appliances |
| Christmas gift shopper | 12.12 or 11.11 | Gift assortment breadth on Lazada, Shopee; toy and kids category peak on 12.12 |
| Home decor and furniture | 12.12 or Boxing Day | IKEA, Castlery, HipVan clearance windows overlap; deep discounts on floor stock |
| Small kitchen appliances | 11.11 or Cyber Monday | Dyson, Bose, Anker, Nespresso align on these windows |
The single biggest mistake Singapore buyers make is buying too early or too late. Buying a MacBook Pro on 9.9 leaves 3 to 7 percent on the table versus Black Friday. Buying winter fashion on 12.12 leaves 15 to 25 percent on the table versus Boxing Day. Buying Chinese New Year travel in late January leaves 20 to 30 percent on the table versus a 12.12 booking. Plan the calendar 6 to 8 weeks ahead.
What this means in practice
In practice, a Singapore buyer planning a S$5,000 year-end shopping spend across categories could map the rest of the calendar as follows. With 9.9 over, put S$400 of prestige and K-beauty at Sephora Singapore and Lazada beauty flagship stores into 11.11, where 20 to 40 percent off is typical. On 11.11 (11 November), commit S$2,000 to electronics: Chinese-brand appliances (Xiaomi robot vacuum, Anker chargers, Bose earbuds) at 25 to 35 percent off on Lazada and Shopee. On Black Friday (27 November), commit S$1,500 to Western brand electronics: Apple iPhone bundle if upgrading, Sony PS5 accessories, Dell laptop refresh, at 20 to 35 percent off across Amazon Singapore and brand DTCs. On Boxing Day (26 December), commit S$1,100 to fashion clearance at Uniqlo, Zalora, Isetan, TANGS at 30 to 55 percent off. Total effective discount versus buying all at January full-price runs S$1,400 to S$2,100, or 28 to 42 percent.
A second example: a Singapore couple planning a March 2027 trip to Tokyo. With 8.8 over, watch airline promotions around 12.12 for SIA or Scoot flights. Hold hotel booking until 12.12 (12 December) when Agoda, Booking.com, and Trip.com run 15 to 30 percent off hotel-only bookings for Q1 2027 stays. Klook activities and JR Pass on 11.11 (11 November) at 10 to 20 percent off. Total trip savings versus locking everything on a single date typically S$400 to S$800 for a 7-day Tokyo trip for two.
A third example: a Singapore student on a S$1,500 back-to-university-year budget planning for next year. On 8.8, buy a Chromebook or entry laptop for online learning during the National Day electronics promotional window at 15 to 25 percent off. On 9.9, buy K-beauty and skincare gift assortment for family (Mother's Day is May but 9.9 pre-empts family gifting) at 25 to 35 percent off. On 12.12, buy Christmas gifts and home decor at 25 to 40 percent off. Skip Black Friday because target categories are not aligned with student budget assortment.
Lazada Singapore, Shopee Singapore, Amazon Singapore, Zalora, iHerb, Klook, Booking.com, Agoda, Sephora Singapore, Guardian, Nike, adidas and Uniqlo are among the stores on ShopBack across the major sale windows. Cashback rates can change during sale windows, so check the live rate on each store's ShopBack page before checkout.
When this does NOT apply
- Prestige luxury (Chanel, Dior, Hermes, Rolex). These brands do not discount and rarely participate in sale windows. Waiting for 11.11 on a Chanel Classic Flap is a wait wasted.
- Rare or limited-edition sneakers. Nike SNKRS drop drops and Adidas Yeezy limited releases are release-day priced, not sale-priced. Sale windows apply to standard lines only.
- Flagship-new-launch pricing. New iPhone Pro models rarely discount even on Black Friday; wait 6 to 12 months for meaningful markdown.
- Insurance, mortgage, and financial products. Not tied to retail sale cycles; shop rates independently via annual reviews.
- Weekly staples and consumables. Household groceries, personal care essentials cycle on FairPrice, Sheng Siong, Giant, Cold Storage weekly circulars; sale windows offer 8 to 15 percent additional off but the base cadence is what matters.
- Bespoke and made-to-order. Suits at Zink, custom shirts at Wardrobe, personalised jewellery at Lee Hwa are quoted individually and do not follow retail sale calendars.
- Airline miles award redemptions. Award seat availability is capacity-managed by airlines and does not open more during sale windows. Redeem when award seats are visible, not on 11.11.
- B2B and commercial purchases. Corporate procurement follows quarterly and annual cycles outside consumer sale windows.
- Deep discount aggregators (Qoo10, Ezbuy). These already run continuous flash sales; incremental sale-window discount is minimal versus their baseline pricing.
Where cashback fits
Cashback is the step after you have chosen the seller. Once the calendar has given you the window and the comparison above has told you whether Lazada, Shopee, Amazon Singapore or Zalora wins on price for the item in your cart, activate ShopBack and click through to Lazada, Shopee, Amazon Singapore or Zalora before paying. The live rate is shown on each merchant's ShopBack page and it moves on sale days, so check it on the day rather than relying on what it showed a week earlier.
The purchases around the calendar are also on ShopBack: Sephora for the beauty windows, Agoda, Booking.com and Klook for the 12.12 travel bookings, and iHerb for the 11.11 supplement restock. Watsons also runs beauty promotions in those windows, but it is not on ShopBack SG right now, so compare the price only.
One caution: ShopBack cashback is a separate rebate paid by ShopBack. This section makes no claim about combining it with Shopee Coins, LazMall vouchers, retailer loyalty points, bank card multipliers or store credit; read each promotion's own terms.
Frequently asked questions

Is 11.11 or Black Friday better in Singapore?

If you can wait, buy Western brands on Black Friday and Chinese brands on 11.11.
What is Boxing Day sale Singapore 2026?
Boxing Day falls on Saturday 26 December 2026. It is not a Singapore public holiday but has evolved into a fashion and department store clearance window that runs from 24 December through 5 January 2027. Isetan, Takashimaya, Robinsons, TANGS, Metro, and Zalora typically discount 30 to 60 percent off seasonal and mid-priced fashion, with additional 5 to 15 percent off tender-based card stacks. Marks and Spencer, Uniqlo, and H&M run parallel clearance. This is the deepest fashion window of the Singapore calendar year in 2026.
Does Singapore have Black Friday sales?
Yes, meaningfully. Black Friday is 27 November 2026 (US retail origin) and has become a major sale window across Singapore e-commerce and mall retail since around 2018. Amazon Singapore runs a full Black Friday event with Prime member early access, Apple runs limited Black Friday bundle promotions with gift cards, Sephora Singapore runs 20 to 30 percent off across most brands, Nike and Adidas Singapore stores discount 20 to 40 percent, Zalora runs sitewide 25 to 60 percent off, and most major banks (DBS, UOB, OCBC, Citi, HSBC) issue Black Friday card promotions with 5 to 15 percent additional stack.
When to buy electronics on sale in Singapore?
Best windows for electronics in Singapore 2026 are 11.11 (11 November) for Chinese-origin brands and Southeast Asia e-commerce (Xiaomi, Huawei, Anker, Bose in Lazada channel), Black Friday (27 November) and Cyber Monday (30 November) for Apple, Sony, Samsung, Dell, HP, LG, Bose, Dyson, and 12.12 (12 December) for accessories, cables, chargers, and Chinese white-label smart home devices. Amazon Prime Day (typically July) is a secondary window; new iPhone releases in September rarely discount but bundle promotions launch around 9.9.
What is the Great Singapore Sale in 2026?
The Great Singapore Sale (GSS) is the Singapore Retailers Association annual sale window running roughly 8 weeks from mid-June to mid-August. It coincides with the summer school holiday and pre-National Day retail push. Discount depths are typically 20 to 50 percent off across malls (Orchard Road, VivoCity, Suntec, Marina Bay Sands), with the National Day week (7 to 9 August) seeing the deepest promotions on housewares, appliances, and Singapore-designed brands. GSS is broader but shallower than 11.11 and 12.12 for most categories.
When is 9.9 sale in Singapore 2026?
9.9 sale fell on Wednesday 9 September 2026 with an official campaign window on Lazada and Shopee that ran 1 to 12 September. It is the second largest e-commerce event of the year in Singapore after 11.11. Category strength: beauty and skincare (20 to 40 percent off), electronics accessories (15 to 30 percent off), home and living (20 to 35 percent off), and mobile phones (5 to 15 percent off). 9.9 is the strongest single window for K-beauty (Innisfree, Laneige, Sulwhasoo, Beauty of Joseon, COSRX) and mid-priced homewares.
When is 12.12 sale in Singapore 2026?
12.12 falls on Saturday 12 December 2026. Official campaign window on Lazada and Shopee runs 5 to 15 December, with mall-level and boutique promotions running 10 to 25 December. Category strength: fashion (20 to 50 percent off), gifts and home decor (25 to 45 percent off), travel and hotels for Chinese New Year and school holiday travel (15 to 25 percent off), and clearance on Christmas seasonal (30 to 60 percent off after 25 December but stock thin). 12.12 acts as a fashion and gift-focused window; electronics discounts are shallower than 11.11 or Black Friday.
Is Cyber Monday different from Black Friday in Singapore?
Yes but overlap is heavy. Black Friday 2026 is Friday 27 November; Cyber Monday is Monday 30 November. In Singapore, both are online-first events with Cyber Monday deeper on pure e-commerce categories (software, subscriptions, digital services, laptops from DTC brands like Dell, HP, Lenovo) and Black Friday deeper on mall-tied retailers and cross-channel brands (Nike, Adidas, Apple bundle promotions, Sephora, department stores). Amazon Singapore treats both as one continuous 5-day event with rolling deals. For a typical Singapore buyer, Black Friday sets the floor and Cyber Monday extends select categories 2 to 3 more days.
Are travel and hotel prices cheaper on 11.11 or 12.12?
12.12 wins for hotels and travel bookings in Singapore. Klook, KKday, Agoda, Booking.com, Expedia, and Trip.com all run promotional windows around 11.11 and 12.12; the 12.12 window typically offers 15 to 30 percent off hotel-only bookings for stays through Q1 and Q2 2027, matching Chinese New Year and Q1 school holiday travel demand. 11.11 offers 10 to 20 percent off but focuses more on activity vouchers and packaged experiences. Flights rarely discount deeply on either window; airline promotions cluster around 8.8, National Day (SG61 in 2026), and 12.12.
How do I stack card promotions on Singapore sale days?
Combine the platform discount (base sale price) with a bank card promo (typically 5 to 15 percent off with a minimum-spend cap) and any platform-native rewards such as Shopee Coins, and go through ShopBack before you pay. Common bank card partners: DBS, UOB, OCBC, Citi, HSBC, Standard Chartered on Lazada, Shopee, Amazon Singapore, Zalora, iShopChangi. Read promo T&Cs for min-spend caps and category exclusions.
Which sale is best for iPhone in Singapore 2026?
Apple rarely discounts iPhone flagship pricing but offers bundle promotions and gift cards during specific windows. Best iPhone windows in Singapore 2026: Apple Back to School promotion (typically June to July, for eligible students), Black Friday and Cyber Monday (Apple has run gift card offers with eligible purchases in past years), and 12.12 (StarHub, Singtel, and M1 telco bundles with contract-tied discounts). Third-party Apple resellers (Nubox, iStudio, Challenger, Courts) may run 3 to 8 percent off outright on recent iPhone Pro models during 11.11 and Black Friday but stock is thin.
Should I buy electronics from Lazada, Shopee or Amazon Singapore on 11.11 or Black Friday 2026?
Buy Chinese-origin brands (Xiaomi, Anker, DJI, TCL) from Lazada or Shopee on 11.11, Wednesday 11 November, when platform subsidy is deepest, and buy Western brands (Apple, Sony, Dell, Bose) from Amazon Singapore between Black Friday on 27 November and Cyber Monday on 30 November. If the same model is listed on all three, the midnight voucher round on 11.11 usually decides it. Use ShopBack to compare the three listings on the day, then activate ShopBack and buy from whichever is cheapest after vouchers.
