I think most of us would have their fair share of local food (chicken rice etc) by now. However, I'm more interested about home made food made by locals here.

Have anyone tried such home made food or am curious to try? Tell us your experience!

You made several salient observations :) I agree these are long-standing blockers (cost, barrier to entry, consumer mindset etc) to advancing digital payments. But I see an opportunity to create a more cost-agile and direct payment ecosystem (no mobile wallets, social media payments or intermediari...

You might be onto something if this included an escrow of the deposits. However that would almost certainly require legislative support or a significant reward to the landlord.

Hey guys, My friend and I had been renting in Singapore for a while now and think rental payment could be a better experience and perhaps, more rewarding (e.g. greater convenience for frequent travelers or the ability to use credit card for payment) We created a 5 mins short survey to crowdsource op...
