Dang. This is so true.

I can only count with 1 hand how many times I actually use the card on shopee. I’ve been buying small, unimportant stuff on shopee and I had to use Shopeepay otherwise I’d be paying RM5 for shipping charges everytime.

My only saving grace is the occasional 10% or 50% coins CB offered separately by shopee or sellers but you don’t need this Maybank credit card for that.

I think I will discontinue using this card before next RM25 is due in 2021. I’ve received the 5000 bonus coins + some 50% off (capped at RM10). That should be enough but not worth paying the annual SST when I’m also paying that with current AMEX cards.

I think that's a viable option, but I am not sure how the outlook would look like since I didn't reserve any posts, unless I sandwich it between past replies to mod hahaha! But I'm open to suggestions.

That aside, its concerning how MBB keeps coming up with new co-brand cards that are not well thought out. On top of that, the benefits are ... disappointing. It will be appealing to me if Grab has good point redeem rates, PLUS MBB ALLOWS transactions over Grab to be considered as a part of point earnings / cashbacks.

Agreed. At this point I am just keeping it until the next time I'm being charged, unless it will impact my CL then that's another story.

you can prepare it and ask mod to amend the 2ns post

Alrighties, I shall get some preparation done and propose it to mod tmr !

Any mods around that can let me know if this is a good to go? Or would be better for another thread specifically for this new Grab x MBB cc?

This Maybank-Grab credit card is clearly geared towards those who actively use Grab services, which is understandable. Else why launch a co-branded card.

So this Maybank-Grab credit card will be the only Maybank credit card that gives you rewards point for reloading GrabPay (5x GrabRewards points). Currently the only way to earn GrabRewards point is by using your GrabPay credit and Grab Platinum users get 3x GrabRewards points for every RM. I do hope we’ll be able to double-dip with this Maybank-Grab credit card.


Yes you can go ahead and change the title of this thread to Maybank co-branded credit cards (Maybank-Shopee & Maybank-Grab).

Yeah I never understand why no rewards given when topping up to ShopeePay. They want us to encourage ppl to spend at Shopee or not?? Might as well not coming up with this Maybank-Shopee card.

Plus the annual tax thing. Not exactly Maybank’s fault but this simply discourages people to signup further.

With Grab x MBB giving points for Grabpay topup, I foresee Shopee will soon allowing Shopee card to enjoy same free shipping voucher as shopeepay. Let's pray.

Alright got it, I shall rename the title of this thread and get some contents up the soonest.

Hmmmm, I certainly do hope so. Especially when its possible that the launch of this Grab x MBB cc will further cannibalize their Shopee card if it's benefits / support is still underwhelming.

the benefits are disappointing exactly because mbb did properly thought this out. 🤭
there are growing grabpoint chasers out there, similar to treat points chaser. not everyone wants cashback, for whatever reason. plus it's free, doesn't hurt for highbrow grab users to apply for it

Do you mean reload grabpay got 5x points
Then spending from grabpay got another 3 points
So total 8 points?

Seems like that that would be the mechanism for the mean time.

Unless Grab creates a special sub-wallet like Boost Partner Wallet to track those amount reloaded with Maybank-Grab cards.

Ok after reading this latest development, I need to browse my Grab app to see how their points work.

Although getting another CC means another RM25 SST. Ughhh.

Prior to having this MBB-Shopee card, I frequently paid my Shopee/Lazada using FPX (gasp! I know) because I only had AMEX and it’s not accepted at both.

OK of recent months I was also found out I can get “points” from my BigPay card but very little tangible benefits from AirAsia itself (tiny amount of BigPoints = useless). Plus BigPay seems to be in the shitter now. App always down, lots of scammer issues.

Gawd I hope so too. Maybank really drops the bomb here.

Although maybe if they don’t start to see mass cancellation, they’ll probably think everything is great? 🧐

Well it's different niche markets I would say.
Unless Shopee accepts GrabPay too like Presto Mall.

I have went through the T&C for MBB Grab Platinum Credit card.
Noted that this card will be entitled for x5 Grab reward point if reload into your Grab.

Assuming reload x5 Grab reward points + x3 Grab reward points when payment through Grab account.

Sample of Calculation:
1) 640 Grab points = RM4
2) 1120 Grab points = RM7
3) 2080 Grab points = RM13

If we take x5 + x3 Grab reward points into consideration, the rebate equivalent to 5%

- 2080 Grab points / 8 = RM260 spending
- RM260 x 5% = RM13 return

If so, not bad to holding this card since 5% return.

I think after a year you'll see that this card removed from their line up (taking into consideration the stats / benefits remain the same)

With another OPR cut looming, I can only wish for better days.

Cool, if that's the case, I'll add double dipping into the post as well later on. May I include your calculation as per above in the post?
