Prime Minister Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim recently announced that the government will be distributing RM100 in e-wallet credits to over 10 million eligible Malaysians

From today, 4 December, until 20 February 2024, eligible Malaysians can redeem their RM100 eMADANI credit.

You can redeem it from four participating e-wallet apps: Maybank's MAE, Petronas' Setel, ShopeePay, and Touch 'n Go eWallet.

The respective e-wallet apps offer additional incentives in the form of vouchers, cashback, discounts, and reward points. For example, Touch 'n Go eWallet is offering 1,000 GOrewards points and RM500 worth of merchant vouchers, while ShopeePay is offering RM600 worth of vouchers for every successful claim, the New Straits Times reported.

Who is eligible for RM100 eMADANI?

The Star reported that recipients must be a Malaysian citizen aged 21 and above.

Additionally, recipients must be either a Sumbangan Tunai Rahmah recipient based on record as of 7 November 2023, or have an annual income of RM100,000 and below according to LHDN records as of 15 July 2023.

eBeliaRahmah recipients are not eligible for eMADANI as they have already benefited from the previous initiative in June. According to the Finance Ministry, the eBeliaRahmah credit shared a similar objective of fostering a cashless culture among the youth.
