A new nationalwide eGiro service that cuts the time taken to process Giro applications from weeks to just minutes was launched yesterday.
Instead of filling in paper application forms and mailing them, the fully digital service allows users to set up their automatic monthly payment instructions online, the Association of Banks in Singapore (ABS) said.
It was announced yesterday morning by Deputy Prime Minister Heng Swee Keat at the Singapore Fintech Festival x Singapore Week of Innovation and Technology 2021.
Introduced in 1984, Giro is an electronic direct debit system for recurring bill payments from bank accounts....
Part of an article found in today's The New Paper
Did they explain how to do it like what apps to download?.....

With Giro there is no hassle to pay your credit card bills, and we don't have to go to AXS machine to pay bills every time we get a bill....

The purpose of Giro is for paying recurring monthly or weekly bills like SP Power, etc. conveniently without the need to make payment arrangement every month when the bills come.
If going to make just one time payment, there is no point to set up a giro payment just for that one particular payment. It is much more convenient to just do a few clicks on your phone and settled with PayNow or Paylah or iBanking....
