As Malaysia heads towards the targeted subsidy pricing of RON 95 petrol that will be RM1.99 per litre from September 30, fuel retailers have posted to social media demonstrating how the fuel purchasing process will work from that date.
As communicated by the government, Malaysians with a MyKad (Malaysian identity card) and a valid driving licence will be eligible for RON 95 petrol at its subsidised rate. Petronas, Petron and BHPetrol have now shown the processes involved in checking one’s eligibility, and for purchasing the fuel.
According to an infographic by the ministry of finance, the purchasing experience for subsidised RON 95 petrol will remain the same, in addition to the new steps of MyKad verification. For cash payments, you’ll be required to present your MyKad at the payment counter, where a device will be used to check your subsidy eligibility.
For paying for fuel using a credit or debit card at the pump terminal, the process varies slightly between brands. For Petronas, the customer will first have to tap or insert their payment card, and once authorised, the terminal will prompt for the MyKad to be inserted into the reader to check for the user’s eligibility.
Once the user’s status has been displayed on screen, acceptance of the transaction (or otherwise) will be displayed, and the customer can insert the Mesra rewards card, or proceed to refuel. A similar sequence applies when paying for RON 95 at Shell, where the user will first present the payment card, followed by the MyKad for verification.
A similar process is used for refuelling RON 95 petrol at BHPetrol, where authorisation of the payment card is done first, followed by MyKad verification. BHPetrol customers who intend to pay for fuel with the Touch ‘n Go eWallet will however need to have the QR code scanned at the station counter before fuelling can begin.
The order is inverted when refuelling at Petron, where the card terminal will first prompt for the MyKad, after which the screen will show the customer’s eligibility, followed by the prompt for the Smiles rewards card, or the customer can proceed with refuelling.
Selected petrol brands offer the choice of making payments for fuel through their own mobile apps, including Petronas Setel and Caltex Go Rewards. If payment for fuel is made through the app, manual verification of the MyKad at the store counter is not required as users will be required to verify their identity and MyKad via e-KYC (electronic know-your-customer). Payments for subsidised RON 95 petrol will soon be possible on the Shell mobile app as well.

Since only 1% of motorists exceed the 300 litres monthly quota,why spent Rm80 Juta on Padu and another few hundred juta RM on software,training, etc?
Just maintain the Rm2.05/litre but concentrate on eliminating and jailing fuel smugglers.
The whole subsidy thing is like a bad joke,a huge U turn from earlier T15,M40,B40 re classifications.
PMX,can u give the voter base more confidence instead of this dilly dally inconsistent exercise?
Skejap ada limit, skejap xde limit. Mentri kiri pon xtau mentri kanan cakap apa. Anwar sendiri pon xingat ape dia cakap minggu lepas.
Why make so complicated when we should ask Rafizi & PMX, what about their janji above.
Dah menang lepas tu capati janji!

the goal here is to treat all malaysians equally and equitably. not to further stratify society because end up we will be segemented into different “castes” , as we already have enough of that nonsense with the R&R different categories
Rakyat dpt 300L subsidi, menteri, wakil rakyat dapat elaun minyak rm1500. Rofl. The whole fking system is fcked up
Correct.. Just maintain Rm 2.05
Spending all those money on Padu etc and more hoo hah at the stations for verification..
Pls lah pmx and his equally useless ministers, if you don’t have a brain, ask the experts to think of a solution before spending money on stupid things & do another 100 u turn ..
there are other ulterior motives as by introducing this subsidy scheme govt can also weed out those who never renew roadtax and those who been driving with expired licnese. use brain to think abit more before blindly bashing
please teach how to pump petrol in secondary school syllabus, and open tuition classes also for adults to learn
New electrical punch payment with identity card for shell petrol pump station.
What about useless foreigners like us?
