The fine print, decoded
The catches most people miss on the Bank Muamalat Visa Platinum-i, in plain language — so nobody gets caught out. Always confirm against the official terms.
- What's excluded
- Cashback applies only to the 3 stated categories (overseas face-to-face retail, e-commerce, contactless); a detailed MCC-level exclusion list is not published on the official product page or the general Credit Card-i PDS — not verified beyond that, 18 Aug 2026.
- Min spend to earn
- Not a cashback condition — this is the general Credit Card-i minimum monthly payment: 5% of statement balance plus any fixed instalment amount, or RM50, whichever is higher.
- How the cap works
- Overseas face-to-face retail: unlimited 1% cash back, uncapped. E-commerce: 1% cash back capped at RM50/month. Contactless: 0.3% cash back capped at RM50/month. (Overseas + e-commerce + contactless caps are separate, not pooled.)
- Foreign transaction fee
- Exchange rate set by Visa at conversion time, plus a 1% service fee on the converted amount — per Bank Muamalat's general Credit Card-i Product Disclosure Sheet (bank-wide fee schedule).
- Fee waiver
- Free 1st year; from the 2nd year, waived with a minimum of 12 retail transactions in the year — per the official product page and the general PDS's annual-fee table (which names "Visa Platinum" among the cards this waiver condition covers).
- ⚠The RM50/month cashback cap applies to e-commerce spend, not overseas spend — overseas face-to-face retail cash back is actually uncapped.
- ⚠Cashback rate drops to 0.3% (capped RM50/month) for contactless transactions, a separate tier from the e-commerce 1%.
- ⚠The annual-fee waiver needs 12 retail transactions in the year, not a spend-amount threshold — low-value swipes count same as high-value ones.
