Unwrapping Singapore’s Latest Gifting Trends
To mark the start of the holiday season, new YouGov research, commissioned by Amazon Singapore, uncovers surprising trends reshaping how Singaporeans hunt for holiday deals and gifts.
The study identifies “Deal Optimizers” as Singapore’s dominant online shopper persona. With 42% identifying as Deal Optimizers when shopping for themselves and 26% when buying for others, these savvy shoppers compare prices, stack vouchers, and strategically time purchases around major sale events. Generational differences are also apparent, with 58% of Gen Z shoppers preferring personalized gifts chosen specifically for the recipient – significantly higher than Millennials (39%). Instead, Millennials are leaning towards practical gifts (62%). This points to a growing emphasis on thoughtfulness among younger consumers, while Millennials prioritize functionality when selecting gifts.
Traditional gender roles in holiday shopping are evolving as well, with more men taking an active role in gifting. The research shows 45% of men plan gifts for their spouse or partner during sale events, almost twice as many as women (25%). Men also report spending more time deciding what to buy for their spouse and partner (47% vs. 25%), suggesting a more shared and thoughtful approach to gift-giving is emerging across different shopper demographics.
