Start a locker business in Singapore
Singapore's dense apartment living, high online shopping rates and cashless habits make self-service collection, key handover and rental lockers practical in towers, workplaces and community venues.
Where demand comes from
- Parcel collection in apartment towers and condominiums
- Food and grocery collection in workplaces and residential estates
- Key handovers for short-stay and serviced apartments
- Equipment rental and lending at clubs, campuses and community spaces
Setting up the business
Most new businesses register a company with the Accounting and Corporate Regulatory Authority (ACRA) and open a local bank account. Check GST registration thresholds and any licence needed for your chosen activity with the Inland Revenue Authority of Singapore and the relevant authority before signing site agreements. This is general information, not legal advice; confirm requirements with the relevant authority.
Taking payments
Stripe can be connected where it supports your business country; check current availability. Where it does not, ask us about connecting a local payment provider through the API.
Climate and hardware
Year-round heat and humidity are the main hardware risks; indoor lobbies and covered areas are simplest, and outdoor units need weather-rated electronics and corrosion-resistant finishes.
