Accepts AMEX: KFC with RHB terminal at the self order terminal
Have to use physical card with the terminal, just select Mastercard/Visa option and tap away.
Just can't use Apple Pay. If you tap, it will ask for your PIN but even if you put the right one in, it will reject the payment.
However, you can still use AMEX via Apple Pay at the counter which still use Maybank terminals

*
KFC upgraded all their terminals in store to the white RHB one.
So can no longer use Apple Pay, must use card directly for AMEX.

Unless someone has a solution for when some terminals asks for pin if you use Apple Pay icon_rolleyes.gif

If anyone is planning to use KTM, you can use Amex by buying your tickets online or via their app. (Have not tried buying it IRL at the counter or tapping at the machines to enter)
And when you're choosing what payment method to use, do not choose credit/international card, but choose debit card/ATM.
Choosing credit brings out the Fiuu/Razer payment page (Amex not accepted), while choosing debit brings out Maybank's check out page.
Then just enter your card details as usual and check out smile.gif

Is the KTM ticket purchase in their online website entitled for Amex CB?
*
Should be, same as topping up at TnG NU Sentral or LRT stations directly (I think).
Some stations also seem to accept Amex at the counter and self-service stations, but I haven't tried it out yet.

Can try using POS PAM or can try to pay it on Pos Online.
Choose to pay via SPL and then pay that off using your Amex

So my local Billion (Supermarket and Departmental Store) might start removing their Maybank terminals.

Previously was all Maybank terminals. Now it's 1/2 counters using AmBank and 1/2 counters using Maybank.
Tried to use Amex on AmBank and payment was rejected. For now can still use Maybank counters, but not sure for how long. sad.gif

I tried over the weekend in PD Billion Departmental, scanned with my Apple Watch. It didn’t work. So I used e-wallet instead.

Hopefully they'd enable it again soon tho. This is some of the only places to shop here for cheap prices sweat.gif

Accepts AMEX: Aeon Self checkout
Recently went to Aeon and it seems they've updated their Aeon terminals at the self checkout to accept Amex.
Used Apple Pay, had no issues tongue.gif
Cashier and food/bakery tills are still using Maybank terminals.

Same like giant. I went to a few giant around subang jaya and shah alam, all also changed to use ambank and ambank terminals don't accept amex.

I thought for Giant/Mercato if you mention Amex, they'd bring out the AmBank terminal?

1) Just noticed Steam doesn't accept AMEX cards anymore. Does anyone know of a retail store that I can buy Steam wallet reloads with AMEX? Or an online one without markup?

2) Does Maybank AMEX 2 Cards 5% cashback / 5x points or AMEX KrisFlyer Platinum points earnings work with PayPal and/or PayPal wallet topups?

1. I've bought it from Amazon India before, but with the FX rate I think you'd be losing out 2-3% per card purchase.
Amazon India Steam gift card

You can also use SEAGM and pay using SPL the paying that off using Amex but still you're going to be paying 1.5% extra on your gift card.

I've just resorted to just buying games On Green Man Gaming (can use Amex) first, but if they don't have then just give up and buy directly from Steam using another card hahaha.

Not accepting AMEX anymore: MyNews (at least in Seremban Gateway)
Using Affin Bank terminal, so they no longer accept Amex.

Some like in Cyberjaya is using HBL terminal, and those accept Amex (even have sticker about it)

ACCEPT AMEX

FiveGuys @ Genting

Not sure if it was a long time thing already but when I went recently, they are using the new MBB terminal and accepts AmEx. Went there about 2 years ago and when I asked them, they straight up say no AmEx.
*
Finally, hopefully can use it at Pavilion as well.

ACCEPT AMEX
Switch (Apple Authorised Store)
They first used UOB terminal and it failed, then when they noticed AMEX they took out Maybank terminal instead.

I also noticed Billion cashiers using new Ambank device. While they still have Maybank device at the moment, but not sure when will stop using. I think big chance they will stop Maybank, just waiting for the contract due date.
*
Some counters have brought back the Maybank terminal and kept the AmBank one in plastic (for some reason).
But yes, I think they're just waiting for the contract to end then maybe get rid of it.

Unfortunately the debit card option (maybank website) is no longer available sad.gif
So no more Amex payment here. Not sure if still can pay using Amex when at the station counter itself.
--
Also found out Maybank updated places that accepted Amex (probably released late 2024 early 2025 as thats when Uncle Roger opened his store)
PDF Amex merchants
PDF List of AMEX Accepted Merchant at 1 Utama Shopping Centre
You can also get the link from any of their card pages.

ACCEPT AMEX
Merchant Name: India Gate Restaurant
Location: All Branches
Type: Restaurant

ACCEPT AMEX
Merchant Name: The Tokyo Restaurant
Location: ISETAN Lot 10
Type: Restaurant
Pretty much anything ISETAN accepts Amex.

QUOTE(coldzerotarget @ Jan 14 2025, 11:18 AM)
And likely they are phasing them out as mentioned. Mercato Pavilion KL (under same parent company as Giant) also has Affin terminals only. If not mistaken Cold Storage KLCC (also same parent company) has Affin terminals only.

Update from Giant Pandan Kapital: the new large LCD cashier machine cannot link with Amex, so they kept all Ambank terminals. If you see only 1 terminal and the LCD display for customers, unlikely have Amex accepted (this has been ongoing replacements since Oct-Nov 2024).
*
Minor update but went to Cold Storage KLCC today. Still mainly using Affin Bank terminal but if you mention Amex they'll bring out AmBank terminal.
Also, they still seem to have a few of them around and share them between tills in the store smile.gif

Nasi Kandar Pelita, Puncak Alam.

If not mistaken all Nasi Kandar Pelita have Maybank terminals. Have been to a few branches around and all accept Amex smile.gif

So u mean cold storage ambank terminal accepts amex? On the other hand, all giant stores using ambank terminal but all don't accept amex.

Yep. This wasn't the first Cold Storage that I've went that accepted Amex.
For Giant, did you use Apple Pay? I know some terminals are buggy with Amex via AP sometimes but works fine with physical card.

QUOTE(victorywp @ Sep 14 2025, 04:03 PM)
Ai-cha (central mall i-city) accepts amex.

Rather surprised to see an Ai-Cha with Maybank terminal. I've only seen Public Bank terminals or just QR so far.

Anyone used AMEX in Lotus's lately? Last comment was end of last year

Yes, still works, just used it a few days ago.
They are using CIMB black terminal iirc.
Even tried it at their self-checkout counters at another branch a few weeks ago, also works.

Paid via Apple Pay, still shows up as Tesco as the merchant's name xD

QUOTE(PoisonSoul @ Sep 21 2025, 03:51 PM)
Try - nope.
Visual - I saw they have a tray to keep receipts belonging to which processing network it goes through. AmEx was not there, for the store @ Rimbayu at least.
*
Sometimes they just combine the AMEX receipt with other processor's receipt. At least that's what I saw at a few places.

Curious if anyone had this issue before.
You make payment with Amex; payment verified and went through.
But the cashier saw the payment and voided it, saying they don't take Amex even though the payment went through.

Once was at a Chez Choux and another at Pathlab. Both had Maybank machines.
