KUALA LUMPUR, Aug 25 (Bernama) --
Tourists from mainland China can now use Alipay, an e-wallet platform, to make
payment in yuan at all 242 Starbucks outlets in Malaysia.
In a statement today, Berjaya Starbucks
Coffee Company Sdn Bhd said Chinese tourists who paid by Alipay could also
enjoy a 10 per cent discount with a cap at five yuan (RM1 = 1.56 yuan) and free
drink size upgrade at the same time, once a week, between Aug 18 and
Oct 31, 2017.
"Each customer will also receive
a 10 per cent-off e-voucher for future use upon completion of the first
transaction," it said.
Berjaya Food Bhd Chief Executive
Officer Sydney Quays said with the acceptance of Alipay in April 2017, the move
would enable Chinese tourists to just flash their mobile application at
the counter without going through money exchange to purchase a cup of
coffee.
Berjaya Starbucks Coffee Company
is a wholly-owned unit of Berjaya Food Bhd.
