StarHub's Guide to Senior Citizen Mobile Plans in Singapore

Staying Connected Has Never Been Easier for Seniors

From video calls with grandchildren to streaming favourite dramas or chatting on WhatsApp, seniors today are more digitally active than ever. Yet, many mobile plans can still feel complicated - packed with features they don’t need or tied to long-term contracts.

That’s why it’s important to have a mobile plan that keeps things simple, affordable, and secure, without unnecessary extras. StarHub’s latest offering for seniors is built around exactly that — giving you the freedom to stay connected with confidence and ease.

Before we explore its features in detail, let’s take a look at what truly matters when choosing a senior-friendly mobile plan.

🧠 What to Look For in a Senior Mobile Plan? 

Whether you’re choosing a plan for yourself or helping your parents switch to one that suits them better, here are 3 key things to look out for when choosing a Senior-friendly mobile plan - affordability, simplicity and security.

1. Affordability 💰

Seniors appreciate good value - especially those living on retirement savings or CPF payouts. A great mobile plan should offer generous data and talktime at a reasonable monthly rate, without hidden charges or tricky add-ons. Look out for no-contract options that give flexibility and peace of mind.

2. Simplicity 🤝

No one wants to deal with complicated bills or plan details. Seniors benefit most from clear, simple plans that are easy to understand - whether it’s setting up the SIM card, checking data balance, or changing a plan online. A truly senior-friendly plan makes everything hassle-free, so loved ones can help out easily if needed.

3. Built-in Scam Protection 🔒

Unfortunately, scam calls and messages have become more common in Singapore. That’s why features like Caller Number Display and scam call blocking are essential - they help seniors identify unknown numbers and avoid falling victim to scams. Look for a plan that includes these protections at no extra cost.
