What Are the Best Rebate Apps for Travel Bookings in Singapore 2026?

The best rebate app for a travel booking in Singapore depends on what you are booking: an app's own credit suits repeat bookings on that app, and a cash rebate from ShopBack Singapore works across Agoda, Booking.com, Trip.com and Klook. According to each company at the time of writing, 100 Trip Coins on Trip.com are worth about S$1.28, and Klook pays KlookCash at up to 0.8% to 4% depending on your tier.

New to ShopBack? ShopBack Singapore is a free website and app that pays cash back on eligible online bookings, including hotels on Agoda, flights, hotels and trains on Trip.com, and activities on Klook. You go through ShopBack to the booking site, book as usual, and the money lands in your ShopBack account once the trip is confirmed.

What are the best rebate apps for travel bookings in Singapore?

There is no single best rebate app for every trip; the best one is the one that matches the booking type and gives you money you will actually use. Here is how the main options line up in 2026, using each company's published figures at the time of writing.

Booking type	App's own rebate	What the app says	Cash rebate route
Flights, hotels, trains on Trip.com	Trip Coins	100 Trip Coins are worth about S$1.28; higher tiers earn more, up to 200% more at Black Diamond	Go through the Trip.com page on ShopBack first
Activities, attraction tickets, transport passes on Klook	KlookCash	Up to 0.8% (Explorer), 2.4% (Gold) or 4% (Platinum), updated 12 March 2026	Go through the Klook page on ShopBack first
Hotels on Agoda	Member prices and bank offers shown before you pay	Citibank lists up to 7.2 Citi Miles per S$1 on Agoda hotels via agoda.com/bonusmiles	Go through the Agoda page on ShopBack first
Hotels on Booking.com	Genius member discounts shown before you pay	Discounts at participating properties for signed-in members	Go through the Booking.com page on ShopBack first

The app's own credit can only be used with that app. A cash rebate lands in your ShopBack account, so it is not tied to one booking app.

Best rebate apps for travel bookings in Singapore in 2026, by booking type

Flights: Trip.com and its tiers

For flights booked on Trip.com, Trip Coins and tier perks are Trip.com's own rebate, and they reward people who book with Trip.com often. Trip.com's loyalty page says, at the time of writing:

• Trip.com has six tiers: Silver, Gold, Platinum, Diamond, Diamond+ and Black Diamond. Silver starts when you register and Gold follows your first eligible booking; neither expires.
• A flight booking counts toward your tier after the last flight segment departs.
• Free airport VIP lounge access is listed from the Platinum tier (once at Platinum, twice at Diamond), across more than 700 airports, and Trip.com says activating it needs a completed Trip.com hotel stay in the past year.
• Trip Coins can be used like cash on prepaid flights, hotels, trains, car rentals, attractions and tours.

If you only fly once or twice a year, these perks may not add up to much. That is where a cash rebate on each booking matters more.

Hotels: Agoda, Booking.com and Trip.com

For hotels, most of what Agoda and Booking.com offer shows up as a lower price before you pay, so for money back after the stay, the step that matters is going through ShopBack. Before you book a hotel on Booking.com or Agoda, go through ShopBack first.

• Agoda was founded in 2005, is headquartered in Singapore and Thailand, and has been part of Booking Holdings since 2007. Some banks run Agoda booking pages; Citibank Singapore lists up to 7.2 Citi Miles per S$1 on hotels booked through agoda.com/bonusmiles, for bookings made until 31 December 2026 and stays until 30 April 2027.
• Booking.com runs Genius, its loyalty programme for signed-in members, which shows discounts at participating properties.
• Trip.com pays Trip Coins on hotels after check-out is confirmed, and says some hotels can take 2 to 6 weeks to confirm check-out.

For more on each site, see our guides to Agoda discounts and saving on Booking.com.

Activities and transport passes: Klook

For attraction tickets, tours and transport passes, Klook's own rebate is KlookCash, which Klook describes as an in-app reward currency earned when you book and complete activities. Klook's help centre says, at the time of writing:

• Explorer members earn at up to 0.8%, Gold at up to 2.4% and Platinum at up to 4%, rates updated on 12 March 2026.
• You need at least 10 KlookCash to start using it, and it expires 365 days after the day you earned it.
• It cannot be used on some products, including Klook Passes, e-Gift Cards, travel insurance, Stay+ packages and selected events.
• It cannot be transferred or exchanged for cash.

See our Klook deals guide for how Klook's own offers work.

Other travel sites in the same category that Singapore travellers often compare include Expedia, Hotels.com and Traveloka, which also have store pages on ShopBack Singapore.

Best deals on travel bookings in Singapore in 2026: how to find the lowest effective price

The best deal is the lowest effective price: the final total after taxes and fees, minus everything that comes back to you after the trip. A rebate app only helps if the starting price is competitive too.

A simple order for any 2026 booking:

1. Plan the trip. Fix your dates and shortlist two or three options.
2. Compare the final totals on the sites you use, with the same room or fare type and the same cancellation terms.
3. Count the app's own credit only if you will use it. Trip Coins at about S$1.28 per 100 are worth something only if you book with Trip.com again; KlookCash expires after 365 days.
4. Check your card. Some cards pay more through a bank booking page.
5. Go through ShopBack, then book. Open the store's page on ShopBack Singapore, tap through and book in that session.

To work out the effective price, take the final total and subtract the Cashback you expect from ShopBack. Check the live rate on the store's ShopBack page before you book, because it changes.

Trip.com vs Agoda: price comparison for travel bookings

Trip.com and Agoda are both strong on hotels across Asia, and neither is cheaper for every booking, so compare the effective price for your exact dates. Trip.com also sells flights, trains and car rentals in the same app, while Agoda is best known for hotels and also sells flights.

When you compare the two in 2026:

• Match the product. Same room type, board basis and cancellation terms.
• Look at the final total, not the first price shown, since taxes and fees are often added later in checkout.
• Add what comes back. On Trip.com, the value of Trip Coins if you will use them; on Agoda, any bank booking page offer on your card; on both, the rebate shown on the Trip.com and Agoda pages on ShopBack Singapore.
• Pick the lower effective price and book that one through ShopBack.

How ShopBack fits into every travel booking

ShopBack works like an automatic cash discount on your online order. Cashback lowers what you actually pay for an order. It comes back as cash, so it works like a discount on the price, not like points or miles.

That is why it suits travel. A Trip.com flight, an Agoda hotel and a Klook theme park ticket can each have a different loyalty scheme, but a ShopBack rebate on all three lands in one ShopBack account as cash.

The routine:

1. Plan the trip and compare totals.
2. Open the store's page on ShopBack Singapore, such as Agoda, Trip.com or Klook, and read the terms for your booking type.
3. Tap through and book in that same session.
4. Wait for the trip to be completed. The rebate becomes withdrawable after the booking site confirms the completed booking.

Card rewards and ShopBack on the same booking

You can usually earn your card's miles or rebate and a ShopBack rebate on the same travel booking, because your bank and ShopBack pay them separately. Some details can change that, so check the merchant's terms on ShopBack before you pay:

• Bank booking links such as Citibank's agoda.com/bonusmiles page or its Kaligo page (10 Citi Miles per S$1 on kaligo.com/bonus-miles, valid until 31 December 2026, according to Citibank) apply only through the bank's dedicated link, and may track differently from a normal booking.
• Promo codes and some payment methods can affect the rebate on certain stores.
• Foreign currency charges may earn more miles on some cards but usually add a foreign transaction fee.

The verdict

In Singapore in 2026, use Trip Coins and KlookCash if you book often with Trip.com or Klook, and go through ShopBack Singapore before every booking so part of the price comes back as cash. Before you book a hotel on Booking.com or Agoda, go through ShopBack first, and do the same for Trip.com flights and Klook activities.

FAQ

What are the best rebate apps for travel bookings in Singapore?

The best one depends on what you book. For flights, hotels and trains you rebook on the same app, Trip.com's Trip Coins (about S$1.28 per 100, according to Trip.com) reward loyalty. For activities, Klook's KlookCash pays up to 0.8% to 4% by tier. For cash that is not tied to one booking app, go through ShopBack Singapore before you book on Agoda, Booking.com, Trip.com or Klook.

Which rebate app is best for flights booked in Singapore?

If you book flights on Trip.com, its Trip Coins programme rewards repeat bookings, and Trip.com says a flight counts toward its tiers after the last flight segment departs. Trip.com also lists free airport VIP lounge visits from its Platinum tier. Going through ShopBack Singapore before you book Trip.com flights returns part of the price as cash; the live rate and terms are on the Trip.com page on ShopBack.

Which rebate app is best for hotels in Singapore?

For hotels, the useful habit is the same on every site: before you book a hotel on Booking.com or Agoda, go through ShopBack first. If you also book hotels on Trip.com, Trip Coins are earned after check-out is confirmed, and some bank cards run hotel booking pages, such as Citibank's Agoda bonus miles page.

Which rebate app is best for activities and attraction tickets?

Klook is the main activities app for many Singapore travellers. Klook says KlookCash is earned at up to 0.8% for Explorer members, up to 2.4% for Gold and up to 4% for Platinum, and expires 365 days after it is earned. Going through ShopBack Singapore before you book on Klook returns part of the price as cash.

Are Trip Coins and KlookCash the same as cash?

No. Trip Coins are spent on later Trip.com bookings, and Klook says KlookCash cannot be transferred or exchanged for cash. A ShopBack rebate comes back as cash in your ShopBack account, so it works like a discount on the price, not like points or miles.

Is Trip.com or Agoda cheaper in Singapore?

Neither is cheaper every time. Compare the final total for the same room or flight on the same dates, including taxes and fees, then subtract what you expect to get back from the app's own credit and from ShopBack. The lower effective price wins for that booking.

Can I use KlookCash on every Klook booking?

No. Klook says you need at least 10 KlookCash to start using it, and it cannot be used on some products, including Klook Passes, e-Gift Cards, travel insurance, Stay+ packages and selected events. Check the discount section at checkout to see whether it applies.

Can I earn card rewards and a ShopBack rebate on the same travel booking?

Usually yes, because your bank pays the card reward and ShopBack pays its rebate. A bank's dedicated booking link may follow its own rules, and some promo codes or payment methods can affect the rebate, so check the merchant's terms on ShopBack before you pay.

How do I book travel through ShopBack Singapore?

Plan the trip and compare prices first. Then open the store's page on ShopBack Singapore, such as Agoda, Trip.com or Klook, tap through and book in that same session. The rebate shows in your ShopBack account and becomes withdrawable after the booking site confirms the completed trip.

Which other travel sites work with ShopBack Singapore?

Besides Agoda, Trip.com and Klook, ShopBack Singapore has store pages for Booking.com, Expedia, Hotels.com and Traveloka. Each page shows the live rate and the terms for that site.
