A standing box for the Singapore partners, in three columns, because the columns are not interchangeable:
- Named by Meta, October 27, 2026: Shopee, Grab, Singapore Airlines, Agoda, ShopBack, Klook, Trip.com, Lazada.
- Added by launch coverage, per this site's November 3 sweep: Carousell, FairPrice, foodpanda, Marina Bay Sands, SISTIC, Mandai, iShopChangi. Single sweep, snippet level, not repeated by the other sweep that day.
- Confirmed live: Agoda only, per partner press (LatestLY, The Manila Times, PR Newswire, Yahoo Finance, October 27 to 28). No second partner has been confirmed live in any sweep through November 4.
- Next update to this box: when a second partner is confirmed live, or when Meta publishes a Singapore partner list that settles which list is Meta's. The re-check runs even if nothing has moved.
The short version
There are two Singapore lists in circulation, and they come from different places.
The first is Meta's. In its October 27 announcement, "Muse Is Now Available in Singapore," Meta named eight partners: Shopee, Grab, Singapore Airlines, Agoda, ShopBack, Klook, Trip.com, and Lazada. That list is the one this site's launch post used (https://museexplained.com/guide/muse-singapore-launch/).
The second list appeared in launch coverage that this site's research sweep read on November 3. Alongside Meta's eight, that coverage named seven more: Carousell, FairPrice, foodpanda, Marina Bay Sands, SISTIC, Mandai, and iShopChangi. One sweep found that longer list. The other sweep that day, run in the morning, reconfirmed Meta's eight and named no extras. No sweep since has repeated the longer list, and none has confirmed any of the seven as a Muse partner in Meta's own words.
So the honest state of the record is: eight names are Meta's, seven more are coverage's, and exactly one name on either list is confirmed live. This post keeps those three facts in separate columns, because merging them is how a reader ends up expecting fifteen working connections that do not exist.
What the seven extra names are, and what is not known about them
Read the seven for what they are as businesses, because that is most of what can honestly be said about them today.
Carousell is a consumer marketplace, where people buy and sell secondhand goods. FairPrice is Singapore's largest supermarket chain. foodpanda delivers food and groceries. Marina Bay Sands is a hotel and entertainment property. SISTIC sells event tickets. Mandai runs Singapore's wildlife parks, including the Singapore Zoo. iShopChangi is Changi Airport's online shopping platform.
That spread is the point. A marketplace, a grocer, a delivery app, a hotel, a ticket seller, an attractions operator, and an airport shop are not the same kind of connection. A Muse connector into a booking platform is one claim. A merchant whose products an agent can order is a second, different claim. A venue whose tickets or rooms show up in results is a third. The coverage the sweep read named all seven without, in the sweep's record, saying which kind of connection each name meant. For none of the seven is there a partner announcement, a Meta statement, or an in app sighting in this site's record.
None of that makes the seven names false. Launch coverage often works from a longer briefing list than the one in a press release, and some of these names may well arrive as partners later, the way Singapore's named partners are arriving progressively. It makes them unconfirmed, which is a different word, and on this page it is the word that governs.
If a list you read this week shows fifteen Singapore partners for Muse, it has merged Meta's announcement with launch coverage and dropped the labels. Eight of those names are Meta's. Seven are not confirmed as partners at all yet, and fourteen of the fifteen are not confirmed live. The count that matters for a Singapore user today is the third column of the box at the top of this page, and it still has one name in it.
Why Agoda is the only name in the live column
Agoda did the thing none of the other fourteen names has done: it said, in public, under its own name, that the connection exists. LatestLY and The Manila Times reported on October 27 and 28 that Agoda is the first travel platform regionally to connect with Muse, and PR Newswire and Yahoo Finance carried Agoda coverage dated October 28. That is partner press, not a Meta statement, and this page labels it that way. It is still a named company attaching its name to a live claim, with dates on it.
Meta's other seven have a weaker sentence behind them. The Straits Times described Singapore users as able to progressively connect to the named local partners. Progressive means arriving later, in an order Meta has not published, on dates Meta has not given. Named and progressive is a real status. It is not live.
Japan set the same pattern a week earlier, and it is worth holding Singapore to it. Meta named three Japan partners on October 23. Money Forward ME moved itself to live per vendor on October 24 and 26, with its own support notice and press release. Mercari and Ticket Pia are still not live, checked again on November 4. The partner's own announcement is what moved the line in Japan. Nothing weaker has, there or here.
What would move a name on this page
Two kinds of evidence, the same two this site applies everywhere.
The first is the partner speaking: Shopee, Grab, or any of the seven extra names publishing its own announcement that a Muse connection has begun or is available, with enough detail to say what the connection does. That is what Agoda's coverage supplied, and what Money Forward ME supplied in Japan.
The second is a sighting: a Singapore account holder showing the partner inside their own Muse connector list, with the date. One account proves that account. It does not prove a general rollout, and this page would label it that way. It still outranks a list.
In Singapore and seeing a partner in your connector list that this page has in the named or coverage columns? That is this week's Partner Check, the standing reader report for this list: the partner's name as your app shows it, and the date you saw it. A screenshot from a launch article does not count. The first sighting that meets the standard above moves a name into the live column of the box at the top of this page.
The price line has not moved either
One related fact stays exactly where the launch post left it. Singapore's paid prices rest on a single source, finance.biggo.com, reporting S$22 to S$139 a month. No Meta Singapore page and no in app sighting checked through November 4 tied those endpoints to the Power and Maximum tier names. US prices remain free, Power at $20 a month, and Maximum at $100 a month. Four countries have Muse: the United States, Canada, Japan, and Singapore. Kuwait is still not confirmed, and every four country list in the November sweeps contradicts it.
Quick answers
How many Muse partners does Singapore have?
Meta named eight on October 27, 2026: Shopee, Grab, Singapore Airlines, Agoda, ShopBack, Klook, Trip.com, and Lazada. Launch coverage read by this site's November 3 sweep added seven more names: Carousell, FairPrice, foodpanda, Marina Bay Sands, SISTIC, Mandai, and iShopChangi. The seven are not confirmed as Meta partners in any source checked through November 4.
Which Singapore partners are live?
Agoda only, confirmed per partner press reported October 27 to 28 by LatestLY, The Manila Times, PR Newswire, and Yahoo Finance. Meta's other seven named partners were described by The Straits Times as connecting progressively. None of the seven coverage added names has a live claim behind it.
Where did the seven extra names come from?
Launch coverage surfaced in this site's research sweep on November 3, 2026, at snippet level. The sweep that morning had reconfirmed only Meta's eight, and no later sweep repeated the longer list. This post names the seven because readers will meet them in coverage, and labels them as coverage added and unconfirmed.
Are Carousell and FairPrice Muse partners?
Not on the record checked. They are two of the seven names launch coverage added. Neither company has announced a Muse connection in any source checked through November 4, Meta has not named them, and no in app sighting has appeared. Unconfirmed is the accurate word, not no and not yes.
What would confirm a second live partner?
The partner's own announcement that its Muse connection has begun, like Agoda's partner press and Money Forward ME's releases in Japan, or a dated first person sighting of the partner in a Singapore Muse account's connector list.
How much does Muse cost in Singapore?
The free tier is confirmed by Meta. Paid prices are single source: finance.biggo.com reports S$22 to S$139 a month, with no Meta page or in app sighting tying the endpoints to Power and Maximum as of November 4.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Why publish a post about a list that might be wrong?
A: Because the longer list is already in circulation, and a reader who meets fifteen names in launch coverage has no way to tell which eight are Meta's. Writing the two lists down separately, with dates and sources, is the correction. If Meta publishes a partner list that includes some of the seven, this page will move them to Meta's column and say when it happened.
Q: Could the seven extra names be real partners Meta simply did not announce?
A: They could. Progressive rollout means partners arrive over time, and launch coverage sometimes works from a fuller briefing list. What the record does not contain, yet, is any of the seven saying so itself, or Meta saying so. Possibility is not confirmation, and this page scores the record, not the possibility.
Q: Why does a partner's own announcement count for more than launch coverage?
A: Because it can be checked and it can be wrong in a way that costs the company something. Agoda's claim ran under Agoda's name, in dated partner press. Money Forward ME published product detail: read only access, no credentials shared, disconnect at any time. An unnamed list in launch coverage carries neither the name nor the detail, so it carries less weight here.
Q: Is this the same situation as Japan?
A: The same shape, one week behind. Japan: three named October 23, one live per vendor within three days, two still waiting on November 4. Singapore: eight named October 27, one live per partner press at launch, seven still progressive, plus seven more names that coverage added and nobody has confirmed.
Q: When will this list be checked again?
A: On the next dated event: a partner announcement out of Singapore, a Meta partner list for Singapore, or a reader sighting that meets the standard in this post. The check runs even if the live column still holds one name.
