You can now easily check if your #TraceTogether Token is working at a Token checking pod! 🙂

These Token checking pods at selected MRT stations are equipped with a #SafeEntry Gateway Box that you can tap. 🚇

✔️ Green light and beep sound:
Your Token is working.

❌ No light or beep sound:
Your Token is faulty or is out of battery. Time to replace it at the nearby CC or replacement booth!

Can you spot the difference between the #SafeEntry Gateway Boxes? 🔍

The check-out boxes – marked with a blue sticker 🔵 – are progressively being rolled out at areas with high footfall, and at places where people are likely to be in close proximity without their masks on, such as dine-in F&B and personal care shops. 🏬

The check-out boxes will enable users to check out with their #TraceTogether Tokens and apps. You can help make contact tracing and potential exposure data more accurate by remembering to check out when you leave a location. 😉

🛎 #TraceTogether and #SafeEntry Updates

We are experiencing intermittent availability on TraceTogether and investigating an issue affecting check-ins via SafeEntry QR scanning.

Users can continue to perform SafeEntry check-ins via tapping of SafeEntry Gateway Box or SafeEntry (Business) App. We are working to resolve the issue and will update when it's rectified.

🛎 #TraceTogether and #SafeEntry Updates

SafeEntry check-in service has been fully restored on the TraceTogether app. Checking in via SafeEntry QR scanning is now functioning normally.

We apologise for any inconvenience caused by the intermittent service earlier today.

🛎 #TraceTogether App Update 🛎

Are you vaccinated? If you are, oTTer will now appear on your TraceTogether app homepage 🦦

📲 Simply update your TraceTogether App to be greeted by your green pass and oTTer upon launching the app! This update also enables you to conveniently show your vaccination and pre-event testing (PET) status when needed.

For unvaccinated users, you will still see the current banner on your app homepage.
