Malaysia has been enjoying one of the cheapest petrol in the world. As crude oil price keep challenging the ceiling. The subsidy has been reduced. As for now, petrol is priced at RM2.70 per liter. I think it is time for me to review any soonyeah to ease the petrol price burden. So far I have found 3 soonyeah.
First is
Direct Access Mastercard. It gives you
2% rebate on all petrol station iregardless of any brand. This give the most flexibility to choose which petrol company you want to use. The rebate is capped with a maximum of RM50 per card per month. You will need to use RM2500 of petrol to reach the cap. One important thing to mentioned, Direct Access credit card is
free for life. No fees for maintaining the card.
