EVERYDAY actions on Grab can now do more than just get things done — they can quietly build value over time. With the transition from GrabRewards to GrabCoins after its major rebrand in November, users can enjoy a more intuitive way to earn and save through their daily activities. Designed to deliver greater value, a user’s coin balance becomes a subtle “pro tip” — a quiet asset that grows each time they ride, order, shop, or pay with Grab.
The cornerstone of this new system is the GrabCoins Flash Sale, which begins on the 15th of every month. It rewrites the usual rules of redemption, turning a standard account balance into a powerful key for unlocking premium deals.
This monthly event also serves as a brand-building pillar that reinforces Grab’s commitment to its community, building a consistent recall that the middle of the month is the best time for savvy shoppers to act.
A comprehensive ecosystem for earning
The shift to GrabCoins created a broader ecosystem where "everyday actions" translate into tangible savings.
Users now accumulate GrabCoins simply by completing purchases and bookings via the Grab app, covering a vast array of services, including GrabFood, GrabMart, GrabCar and GrabExpress.
The earning potential even extends into the financial sector, with GrabCoins being granted for transactions made via GrabPay, PayLater and digital banking partners like GX Bank in select markets.
To maximise a balance ahead of the March 15 sale, there are several high-yield actions that allow users to earn even more GrabCoins per transaction:
> Hosting GrabFood Group Orders: A collaborative way to boost GrabCoins accumulation while ordering with others;
> Ordering Grab Signatures: Selecting from the specific Grab Signatures merchant list on GrabFood;
> Seasonal Opportunities: Ordering GrabFood for Moreh (available until March 26 only);
> Health and Beauty Focus: Ordering specifically from Health and Beauty stores on GrabMart;
> Planning Ahead: Making an Advance Booking for transport services;
> Premium Travel: Booking a Premium or Executive ride;
> Dining Out: Booking a table via Grab Dine Out;
> Partner App Services: Earning through newly launched services within the Partner App.
The monthly strategy
While GrabCoins can be used throughout the year for instant savings — via a simple toggle at the checkout page for Food and Mart or under “Offers” on the booking screen — the GrabCoins Flash Sale offers users an additional opportunity to redeem their coins for selected deals during the monthly event. This feature allows consumers to instantly lower their total payment amount with a single tap.
The sale serves as a dedicated monthly window where, for a limited time only, GrabCoins can be redeemed for significant savings on food, rides and various merchant vouchers. By offering these deep discounts, Grab aims to build a lasting habit among its audience, reinforcing the idea that the 15th of every month is the prime time to explore the GrabCoins catalogue. During this period, a wide selection of vouchers is made available at up to 50% off, ensuring that every GrabCoin brings value to users.
Featured deals and redemptions
The March 2026 Flash Sale features a diverse merchant list designed to cater to every lifestyle need, with a catalogue that refreshes monthly to keep offerings relevant.
For the upcoming sale, users can expect significant value across several categories:
> Food and Beverage favourites: Users can redeem a RM10 voucher at 750 GrabCoins (originally at 1,500 GrabCoins) from Baskin Robbins, HWC Coffee, Lim Fried Chicken, Kenangan Coffee and The Soybean Factory;

The objective of this campaign is to move beyond the idea of “spending” and instead emphasise “unlocking more value” during the monthly GrabCoins Flash Sale. By focusing on the unique strengths of the Grab ecosystem, the brand positions GrabCoins as a growing balance that serves as a valuable asset for consumers who make smart choices.
