Durian season is back in full swing, and for Singapore’s durian aficionados, there’s an exciting reason to celebrate. U-POPP, the rewards programme by UOL Malls, is bringing back their much-anticipated Mao Shan Wang Durian Buffet — and this time, it’s bigger, better, and most importantly, more accessible.
For anyone who missed out last year or who’s always on the lookout for a good durian deal, this is your golden ticket — quite literally. U-POPP has officially opened up a new slot for their annual Mao Shan Wang Durian Buffet, and if you’re a fan of creamy, bittersweet durian goodness, this might just be the highlight of your year.
What’s particularly enticing is how U-POPP has framed the redemption process — it isn’t just a typical food promotion. Instead, it’s an experience that rewards shoppers for indulging in retail therapy. Here’s a closer look at how to get involved, and more importantly, why it’s worth the effort.
How It Works: Shop, Redeem, Feast
To earn your entry to this exclusive Mao Shan Wang Durian Buffet, all you need to do is spend a minimum of $150 across a maximum of three same-day receipts at any of the participating UOL Malls. Once that spending threshold is met, simply head over to the mall’s Customer Service Counter and redeem two tickets to the buffet for just $50.
Let’s break that down. A full Mao Shan Wang buffet experience would usually cost $136, but through this promotion, you’re getting two tickets for less than half the price — a total of just $50. That means you’re essentially getting two seats for the price of less than one, making this a seriously worthwhile offer, especially if you’re shopping with a friend, partner or family member.
And here’s the kicker: it’s not limited to long-time U-POPP members. Even if you’re not already part of their loyalty programme, you can sign up for free via the U-POPP app and enjoy the exact same benefit. It’s an open invitation to everyone who enjoys a good deal — and durian, of course.
Why This Is a Deal Worth Chasing
Let’s be honest — Mao Shan Wang is the king of all durians, and it’s not cheap. The premium quality, rich and custardy texture, and bittersweet taste make it the most sought-after variety in Singapore. Usually, indulging in a proper Mao Shan Wang buffet can set someone back by quite a fair bit.
So, when a brand like U-POPP rolls out a chance to enjoy this luxury at a fraction of the usual price, it’s hard to ignore. But what makes this offer even more valuable is how it’s tied into everyday shopping.
Instead of paying outright for the buffet, you’re essentially turning your retail spending into edible rewards. Whether you’re picking up groceries, new clothes, household items, or just grabbing meals with friends, your regular spend goes towards something enjoyable — and what’s more satisfying than an all-you-can-eat Mao Shan Wang experience?
On top of that, the environment of a durian buffet is an experience in itself. It’s not just about sitting down to eat; it’s about being surrounded by fellow durian enthusiasts, all relishing in the shared joy of one of Southeast Asia’s most prized fruits. There’s laughter, there’s conversation, and of course, there’s the intoxicating aroma that durian lovers cherish. It’s social, it’s indulgent, and it’s incredibly memorable.
Great for Durian Lovers and Casual Shoppers Alike
The best thing about this promotion is how accessible it is. With no need for hefty upfront payments or complicated points systems, it’s easy for anyone to take part. As long as shoppers hit the $150 minimum spend within the same day (and on no more than three combined receipts), they’re eligible. Whether it’s a planned shopping spree or a spontaneous afternoon out, the opportunity to grab buffet tickets is readily within reach.
Plus, given that UOL manages some of the most popular malls across Singapore — like United Square, Velocity@Novena Square, and KINEX — there’s no shortage of great shops, dining spots, and services to spend at. You’re not going out of your way to earn this reward; you’re simply being rewarded for spending where you probably already planned to.
And for those who might be trying durian for the first time or want to bring visiting friends or family for a truly local experience, this buffet is a fantastic introduction. Mao Shan Wang is a cultural and culinary gem, and this promotion offers a delicious, cost-effective way to dive right in.

Even beyond this durian promotion, U-POPP has a reputation for offering compelling rewards and privileges for shoppers at UOL Malls. From birthday vouchers to partner discounts, their app is a hub for earning and redeeming benefits.
Signing up takes just a few minutes on the U-POPP app, and membership is entirely free. You’ll gain access to other deals and updates, and you can start earning U-POPP points immediately with your purchases — which can be used for even more perks in future.
So, even if the Mao Shan Wang Buffet is the only thing that draws you in initially, sticking around in the U-POPP ecosystem is worth considering for the long term.
Act Fast — While Stocks Last
It’s important to note that tickets are limited, and redemption is while stocks last. With the buzz surrounding this buffet and the unbeatable value on offer, it’s safe to expect high demand.
