Changes to SMS alerts
We are changing alerts to push notifications and email. Stay updated on your financial transactions in real time with UOB TMRW.

Enjoy secure banking with instant notifications
Since 1 March 2023, we have phased out SMS alerts for incoming PayNow transactions.
From April 2025, the existing SMS alerts will be progressively changed to push notifications via UOB TMRW and email alerts for impacted digital, banking and card transactions.
The threshold for transaction alerts will also be set to the bank’s default settings for these impacted transactions.
To ensure your transactions notifications are not disrupted, please enable push notifications via your phone settings and update your email address today.
*Note: Ensure you have the latest app version of UOB TMRW for the latest updates.
