How to get the most out of your GrabCoins

This article provides a guide on how to maximize the value of GrabCoins, a rewards currency for the Grab platform. It suggests using the redemption catalogue during monthly flash sales rather than using coins to offset transaction costs.
Why it matters
Understanding reward program mechanics helps consumers optimize their spending and extract better value from digital loyalty ecosystems.
GrabCoins replaced GrabRewards last year, offering users a new way to earn and save on their daily Grab transactions.
One key advantage over the previous programme is that GrabCoins can be earned regardless of payment method . This effectively means you can double dip on GrabCoins and miles or cashback from your credit card.
Just like any rewards currency, you should be aiming to earn and burn your GrabCoins on a regular basis. Remember: all GrabCoins earned from 2026 onwards will expire after six months. Hoard them too long, and they may go to waste!
If you’ve built up a stash of GrabCoins and aren’t sure how to use them, here’s how to maximise their value.
There are two ways of redeeming GrabCoins — but one can potentially offer much better value than the other.
