How We Rate

SingaReviews recommends businesses and products in Singapore based on public evidence we check ourselves. This page explains what we look at, what our dates mean, and how paid listings work. Last reviewed: 6 October 2026.

What we check

For every business or product on a list, we look at:

  • Is it still operating? We check the official website and social pages, Google Maps status and news reports. Businesses that have closed are removed.
  • Prices, hours and locations. We take these from official sources first, such as the business’s own website, price list or booking page. If we can’t confirm a figure, we say so or leave it out.
  • Licences and accreditations where they matter, for example CaseTrust, HDB-registered contractors, MOH-licensed clinics or MOM-licensed agencies.
  • What customers say. We read recent public reviews on Google, Facebook, forums and review platforms, and summarise recurring praise and complaints. We don’t invent quotes, ratings or review counts.
  • Track record. How long the business has operated and the work it can show.

How we choose and order a list

Across categories we weigh five things: track record, quality of the product or service, what sets it apart, value for money, and customer service. The weight of each depends on the category. A fridge is judged differently from a divorce lawyer.

Unless an article says we visited or tested something ourselves, our assessment is based on the research described above, not first-hand testing.

What our dates mean

  • Updated is the date the article’s content last changed.
  • Facts checked is the date an editor last re-verified the article’s prices, opening hours and closures against official sources. It only appears on articles where that check was done.

Paid listings

Some businesses pay to be listed on SingaReviews. Pages that include a paid placement are labelled Sponsored, and links to the paying business carry a rel="sponsored" tag, as Google requires. See our disclosure for how we make money.

Corrections

Businesses change prices, hours and locations often. If something on our site is wrong or out of date, tell us and we’ll check it and update the article.
