DBS PayLah!, which is a mobile wallet, also has introduced an “eAng Bao” feature which lets users send money via eAng Baos to those who have loved ones travelling.DBS will also be introducing DBS Joyous Moments, an online social tool where consumers can send tailored e-calendar invites to ensure that the holidays will be well-spent with family and friends.
