OTHER INFORMATION


Using your PIN enabled card at Petrol Stations

You will need to enter your 6-digit PIN when making payment using your card to pump petrol at outdoor self-service kiosk or terminals. If you do not know your PIN, you will not be able to use your card.
 
Note: A pre-authorisation amount of RM200 will be debited from your account when you pay for your petrol at self-service pumps. The amount will then be reversed and the actual amount will be charged once the bank receives the actual settlement within 3 days. You are advised to pay at the cashier indoor to avoid the pre-authorisation holding.

Card Usage Overseas

Please ensure you have a PIN for your card before leaving Malaysia. For countries that have not yet migrated to PIN, you may still sign for verification to use your card for payment. Although the standard for payment card PINs in Malaysia is 6 digits, the standard in some overseas markets is a 4 digit PIN. When travelling overseas, you may encounter a problem using if the terminal restricts PIN entry to 4 digits. In this situation, you have two choices:

  • Firstly, request the retailer to bypass the PIN entry and complete they payment by signature.
  • If this is not possible, or the retailer refuses to allow signature, then you must opt for a different payment method.

NOTES:

  • For new Cardmembers, your credit card will be automatically activated once your PIN has been successfully created.
  • For existing Cardmembers who have already created a PIN, you just need to activate your Card.
  • For Supplementary Cardmember, please request the Principal Cardmember to preset the PIN on your behalf using the same method as above.
  • Please have your PIN ready before travelling overseas.
  • No PIN is required for contactless transactions less than RM250.
