For my case, I have not been using GrabPay Card for a long time ever since they tweaked their point system to disallow accumulation of GrabRewards points via it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It used to be my favorite card, but it has now become a card that I will use it last. This might be the case for most holders of this card. Based on Grab, here is their explanation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-style-large has-small-font-size is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p><strong>Why is Grab discontinuing the GrabPay Card?&nbsp;<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>After careful consideration, we have decided to discontinue the GrabPay Card effective 1 June 2024. This decision comes after an evaluation of our existing financial services business. We have observed much higher adoption and use of other Grab offerings (such as PayLater by Grab, GrabPay Wallet) that better cater to the needs of our users. We aim to thus concentrate our efforts on refining these products to provide an even better user experience for you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We thank our customers for their support of GrabPay Card over the last few years, and remain committed to serving our customers and partners through other financial offerings on the platform.<\/p>\n<cite><a href=\"https:\/\/help.grab.com\/passenger\/en-sg\/360027487611\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" title=\"\">[GrabPay] Discontinuation of GrabPay Card | Consumer | Grab SG Help Centre<\/a><\/cite><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p>So, if you are happily using it, you need to start to think of an alternative card for your usage.
