How To Download And Use The RM200 eBeliaRahmah e-Wallet Credit

Starting 26 June 2023, youths aged between 18 and 20 years old or full-time students at a higher education institute have started registering to receive RM200 worth of e-wallet credit under the government’s eBelia Rahmah program.

Under Budget 2023, the government has allocated RM400 million for the eBelia Rahmah program, which seeks to benefit up to 2 million eligible youths.

“Besides aiming to continue to foster a culture of cashless payments among the youth, this also somewhat eases their financial burden. In addition, this is also an increase in e-cash credit offers compared to the RM150 from last year,” said YAB Dato’ Seri Anwar Ibrahim, Prime Minister and Minister of Finance of Malaysia.

Eligible Malaysians can start registering to receive RM200 in a one-off payment of e-cash credit with one of the three leading e-wallet service providers, namely Boost, Setel and Touch ‘n Go.

In addition to the RM200 assistance in the form of e-cash credit from the government, the e-wallet service providers involved will also provide additional incentives in the form of vouchers, cashback or reward points discounts throughout the programme period.
