Spend your stablecoins in Singapore
Almost anything in Singapore can be bought with USDC/USDT.
Pay anywhere you see a QR with GrabPay using your crypto
Most stores in the country take credit cards, and you can use contactless pay/Apple Pay/Google Pay for everything from riding the MRT to buying anything at a mall.
Occasionally, you'll come across a store that requests PayNow/PayLah/cash for payment; this is the instant digital cash system tied into every banking app.
If you're visiting for a short stay, you can download Grab and load your GrabPay account with funds from your bank account or load USDC/USDT from your crypto wallet and then use GrabPay to pay at stores that request you to pay with a PayNow or PayLah QR code.
