GrabUnlimited : What Is It?

Here are some of the benefits that the GrabUnlimited subscription offers :

Unlimited Benefits
- RM1 GrabFood premium delivery discount

- Earn up to 1.5% in GrabRewards (instead of just 0.5% for non-members)
You will get 1.5 GrabRewards for every RM1 spent, instead of just RM0.75. - Monthly Grab Hot Deals are now limited to GrabUnlimited members.
GrabUnlimited : My Humble Opinion
GrabUnlimited is being pitched to the media as a great way to save and earn money (paradoxical, I know!).
At first glance, it does look attractive, offering you 38% or 50% discount vouchers, as well as free delivery vouchers worth RM180. And who doesn’t want to “earn” 1.5%?
The real purpose though is to lock you into their platform, to discourage you from using their rivals / alternatives.
And if you look at the fine print, you will realise that those benefits and vouchers come with caveats that make them much less attractive.
- You get 1.5 GrabRewards for every RM1 you spend – twice that of non-members, which you can use to redeem discounted Grab vouchers for a rebate “up to 1.5%”.
- The 50% discount voucher is really a RM8.50 discount voucher with a minimum spend of RM20. The additional discount comes from Grab automatically applying one of the GrabUnlimited RM3 free delivery vouchers. It is also limited to “selected restaurants”.
- The 38% discount voucher is really a RM7.50 discount voucher with a minimum spend of RM25. The additional discount comes from Grab automatically applying one of the GrabUnlimited RM3 free delivery vouchers. It is also limited to “selected restaurants”.
- The 15% off Self Pick-Up discount is capped at RM12, which works out to a maximum order value of RM80.
- The RM3 GrabFood free delivery voucher requires a minimum spend of RM20, and is not valid for Mix & Match orders.
- The RM3 GrabMart free delivery voucher requires a minimum spend of RM40, and is not valid for Mix & Match orders.
That is why Grab limited their monthly Hot Deals and Top-Rated Drivers to GrabUnlimited members. They used to be available to everyone.
That does not mean it’s a bad idea to subscribe. If you use Grab regularly to order food or grocery deliveries, you can save quite a lot. You just have to make sure you meet the voucher requirements.
And you should definitely not fall into the trap of only using Grab. Always check alternative delivery services to see if they offer a better deal.
Finally, if you do not use Grab regularly (like me), you should obviously not subscribe at all. It would only be a waste of your money.
