I used Grabcar app and had a ride of RM 11.39 which charged to my CIMB CR and unexpectedly got RM 10 of CIMB Grabcar promo and of course the usual 5% cash rebate. Not too bad.

I didn't know there's such a promo.

Googled and it was only for the first cashless ride.

But it's the same CIMB card...

I'm not sure which MCC but it's entitled for cash rebate.

Eh, Uber no? I got it for my Nov cash rebate.

Yes, I received cash rebate for Uber transaction via its app.

How do we reload our Alipay using CIMB CR?
I thought cards that not registered in China cannot use to reload Alipay? My China friend usually transferred money to my Alipay or she helps me to pay my Taobao purchases.

That means direct payment to Taobao is it, I guess that's entitled for 5%.
There is a service charge of 3% I supposed, not worth for me.

But the % is not as high as CIMB CR.

If you want a hassle free card, can get Aeon Watami but it excludes petrol.

Well, everyone has different needs, some don't mind the hassle while some find it troublesome.

No right or wrong.

So far I got back my 5% cash back for my online transactions though I prefer my UOB VOX for pure online transactions.
Erm formula? Mind to enlighten?

Oh, I thought you were referring to CIMB CR card since this is a CIMB thread.

Oh well, yes that's a troublesome card. I cancelled my RHB card too.

Payonline doesn't entitle for cash back for CIMB CR if I'm not wrong.

You can't change merchant code, you can't do much because it's tagged to the terminal. So learn from experience if you don't get cash back.
Refer to this thread: https://forum.lowyat.net/topic/3711577

If you want to use Pay Online and get cash back, you can try applying UOB VOX or PBB VS.

Giant is groceries, so 2%.

I spend a lot on online transactions so I spend more on VOX compared to CIMB CR. Pure online transactions card and can get cash back even for flight tickets.

My CIMB CR is only for below RM 50 transactions.

Agoda using CIMB CR will have 0.8% border charge.

Er.. RM 50 cash back is very normal in the market, how much are you expecting actually?
Anyway, that said I don't use my CIMB CR that often too because I have UOB VOX for online transactions. Only if the transaction is below RM 50, then I will use CIMB CR and my usual Uber and MyTeksi rides also charged to CIMB CR.

You can always insist to have only one card. I was offered with another card too when I applied CIMB CR and I made it very clear that I only want CIMB CR, do not send me other additional cards.

I only received CIMB CR at the end.

Any error? I'm yet to try, probably tonight will check it out.

Yes, I got cash rebate for both Uber and MyTeksi.
