S$0 phones, up to 25% off upsized 5G+ phone plans & Adoring Hearts bag charm available for teachers this Sep. 2025

After another year of school, it’s time to thank those who work tirelessly to plan lessons and nurture students. 

To celebrate Teachers’ Day, Singtel is launching exclusive Corporate Individual Scheme (CIS) perks to reward educators from the preschool to tertiary level.

Plans that let you pay S$0 upfront for brand-new phones 

First up are some exciting phone deals.

If you are a teacher, you can pay S$0 upfront for phones on CIS plans including the brand-new iPhone 16 and other top models.

You can even get up to S$360 off all phones, up to S$200 in free Takashimaya vouchers and extra early bird S$50 phone discounts. 

25 per cent off upsized 5G+ phone plans

As a teacher, you would probably also have occasionally spent long hours on your phones discussing lessons with colleagues, and dropping reminders to your students to do their homework.

To help stretch your dollar on data usage, Singtel is also offering up to 25 per cent off for a monthly subscription on any two-year upsized 5G+ phone plans.

Teachers can also get up to 30 per cent off monthly subscriptions on SIM Only plans, starting from S$24.50 per month for 150GB 5G+, 400 minutes and SMS.

Network plans

To help ensure you have a strong connection whether you are teaching online, preparing lesson material or meeting parents, Singtel has the Priority L phone plan on Singtel’s 5G+ Priority network which provides four times faster speeds for better connectivity. 

On top of that, every CIS plan is also supported by Singtel’s 5G+ network which provides stronger indoor coverage in addition to faster speeds so you never have to worry about bad connectivity whether you are teaching in school or taking online meetings at home.

Adoring Hearts charm

There’s also the Adoring Hearts bag charm which is free with every new sign-up or recontract of any phone plan or SIM-only plan, and is valid till Sep. 28, 2025, or while stocks last.

On top of that, it doubles as a handy case for AirPods or small essentials.

Lovely.
