hoolah Lets You Buy A Sofa For Less At Checkout & Donate Cashback To Covid-19 Frontline Workers
Helping people in need while coping with the economic impacts of Covid-19 ourselves can be difficult. But what if there was a way to buy your mum that handbag she’s been eyeing for Mother’s Day, while supporting frontline healthcare workers at the same time?
hoolah, Singapore’s leading “Buy Now Pay Later” retail platform, lets you buy what you need and put your shopping to good use.
To reward do-gooders, you’ll even clock double cashback if you choose to donate the amount to a meaningful cause. So the more you spend, the more you can give.
What a great way to reward your loved ones and help others in these trying times.
Here’s a peek at what you can find on hoolah’s platform, which hosts a wide array of merchants from fashion, furniture, lifestyle products & electronics.

The Courage Fund, kickstarted by The Community Chest under the National Council of Social Services (NCSS), provides monetary relief to Singapore citizens affected by the Covid-19 health crisis — this includes healthcare staff, frontline workers or volunteers.
Keep your cashback or donate double the returns
