Update: The Grab app services are back online

If you can't seem to get a Grab driver at this hour, you're not alone. Grab Malaysia just posted that the servers are experiencing a service disruption at this very moment. From our end, we haven't tried using any of the services but it seems that the promotions on the homepage are missing entirely.

After getting the precious AstraZeneca vaccine appointment slot, it's now your responsibility (or maybe your phone's) to make sure that you remember to attend it. By making it easier, Grab is offering discounts to the citizens who are aged 60 and above on Grab rides to the vaccination centres.

Food delivery is probably one of the services that people can't go without during the pandemic. To up the game, Grab has announced that it will start its pilot robot runner service at Paya Lebar Quarter Mall (a mall located in Singapore) to help in handling orders across several restaurants within the mall.

Based on Grab Singapore’s official website, it seems that Grab has officially started allowing users to transfer funds in their GrabPay wallet to their bank account. But that’s not all, it seems that it also allows Grab users to transfer funds to other e-wallets as well with no additional minimum transfer and no transaction fees.

It seems that Techcrunch.com recently mentioned that Grab plans to have all Grab drivers and riders vaccinated by 2022. With that in mind, Grab wants to work closely with government bodies to ensure that the vaccination is done as fast and as thoroughly as possible.

Based on a statement by rnggt.com, it seems that there could be a possibility that Grab and Gojek might merge into a single entity. While not much is known in regards to when the merge might happen, a report by Bloomberg mentioned that a discussion is currently ongoing between the two companies.

Based on a statement by rnggt.com, it seems that companies such as Axiata, BigPay, Grab, and more, will allow the public to take a small loan. But that’s not all, depending on which income group you’re in, you could potentially get reduced interest rates when borrowing less than RM500.

Great news for Malaysians who like to use GrabPay! You can now enjoy savings up to 50% off when you pay your online goods with GrabPay. This 10.10 campaign starts from now until 31 October 2020.

If you have yet to spend your RM50 ePenjana credit, use it all before the end of 30 September 2020 because it will expire at the end of the day. Not only that, but vouchers from Grab, Touch n’ Go eWallet, and Lazada may expire on the same day as well, so act fast before they disappear!

Recently, Grab has stated on their official website saying that it will be possible to order several meals from the same food court for a single delivery price. Currently, this feature is available in selected food courts located in Johor Bahru, Penang, Kota Kinabalu, Kuching, Melaka, and Ipoh for now.
