About today's promo (the TV one)...
1 person only 1 entry, no matter how much they spend, right? (min 20)
Even if they spend rm100 or 4xRm20... only 1 entry is counted?

Another off topic but it's related to the potential for Boost

KFC now accepts Maybank QR Pay via their card terminal (the one that has a scanner beside), so there's definitely much hope for Boost to be accepted in KFC in the near future I guess?

And I wonder why KFC is the only merchant that uses that terminal (at least from what I've seen), all in one terminals are very useful and flexible.

Paying with card at KFC's terminal is always a hit and miss..
Most of the time, they'll just say the terminal is offline... And there's a few places which let me use is (for Wave/SPay)
There's even one day that the cashier said it was offline, but the 2nd time i went back the manager let me wave it hmm.gif hmm.gif hmm.gif

BTW.. this might sound a bit stupid..
By the term 'Scan and Pay'... does that means using the 'Scan and Pay' function inside the Boost app only..
Or it also includes when the shop/retailer scan our code?

My experience with paying with card at KFC is flawless so far though...

The term 'Scan and Pay' applies to both scanning methods, it's Boost fault for making it confusing. I'd say they should merge both scanning methods into one section and rename it to something like 'Pay' or something like that.

Yeah.. i'm a bit confuse with the term..
Coz I just started using Boost and for now.. none of the place I went asked me to scan their code or something biggrin.gif

I already saw the Boost stickers at Tesco (at least the one nearest my area) for weeks already..
But few days ago when I asked if i can pay by Boost.. they said the system is not ready yet...
I wonder if it's on right now...

And for the 99... the two excuses I often hear is "only manager can do" and "line's down..."

Two times i used Boost at Health Lane Pharmacy...
I donno what device they're using...
It sorta like Android thing with NFC/PayWave scanner on top..
They'll use the camera to scan my QR code...

I don't think they used the device at all.. since they will turn / start the device when I say I want to use Boost (the device is turned off)

Health Lane Pharmacy uses the terminal provided by Mpay, at least from what I saw, and yes, it's running on Android.

I believe they turned it off to save power, cuz the terminal needs to be charged. It's totally reasonable if they turn it off, but it's definitely not if they didn't power it on at all and only do it when you ask for it.

Nowadays you will see more different terminals by different providers, so far there are Mpay (most common one), GHL and iPay88.

Yeah.. just searched on MPay's website..
They used this one v
