Hari Raya 2026: The Ultimate Guide To Festive Deals In Malaysia
Author Avatar

From baju raya shopping to reunion dinners and balik kampung flights, Hari Raya spending can add up faster than you’d like. The silver lining is that banks, hotels, retailers, and airlines are rolling out plenty of promotions this season. We’ve gathered the most relevant Ramadan and Raya deals in one place, so you can make the most of the celebrations without blowing your budget.

Bank Promotions For Ramadan And Raya

Malaysian banks have launched cashback campaigns and lucky draws tied to the festive season. Most come with spending thresholds and eligibility requirements, so read the fine print before assuming you qualify.

Credit Card Dining and Cashback Deals

Using the right card for your iftar gatherings or festive shopping can stretch your Ringgit further through cashback or rewards points. These promotions typically come with minimum spend requirements and caps, so they work best for larger bills rather than everyday meals.

  • CIMB: 30% dining cashback for premium cardholders (Visa Infinite/-i, World Mastercard, Travel World Elite), capped at RM300 per transaction. The catch: you need to spend at least RM1,000 per transaction, plus hit RM10,000 in monthly retail spend or maintain RM10,000 incremental balance in a CIMB CASA. This one’s really for high spenders hosting large reunion dinners, not casual iftar outings. The total pool is RM500,000, so earlier spending has a better shot.
  • Public Bank: 15% monthly cashback when you spend a cumulative RM500 via Garmin Pay, Samsung Pay, or Google Pay using PB Visa Cards during Ramadan 2026. Separate campaigns offer up to 25% cashback on fuel and dining for Visa cardholders.
  • Maybank: The “Tap, Track, Win” initiative via MAE offers RM28 cashback when you complete five MAE QR transactions of at least RM10 each. Maybank Shopee Visa Platinum cardholders get up to 5X Shopee Coins on designated Special Days, including 20 March 2026, which is useful for last-minute Raya shopping.
  • AmBank: The “Meriahkan Sambutan Raya dengan AmOnline!” campaign features a RM10,000 Habib voucher grand prize, plus RM5,000 Switch vouchers and thousands of smaller cashback rewards. Entries are weighted toward AmOnline app activities, with 10 entries for registering a DuitNow ID and 8 entries per qualifying DuitNow QR, FPX, or JomPAY transaction. AmBank Debit Card users also get RM30 off a RM150 spend at Shopee via the “Bazar Hebat Ramadan” collaboration.
  • RHB Bank: The Taobao 38 Raya Campaign offers an RM35 instant rebate on minimum RM250 spend via the Taobao app. Shopee Double Digit Sales yield up to RM88 in instant rebates for minimum RM120 spend. RHB also has travel deals including 30% off at Sama Sama Hotel KLIA and 20% off Sky Suite Airport Lounge access.
  • Alliance Bank: Up to 50% cashback capped at RM118 weekly for dining, shopping, groceries, and travel. This high-percentage, low-cap structure works well if you’re making frequent moderate-sized purchases throughout the festive season.

Ramadan Buffets And Iftar Dining

We’ve already covered the full Klang Valley buffet scene in our Ultimate Guide to Ramadan Buffets 2026, including early bird pricing and hotel-by-hotel breakdowns.

Budget-Friendly Alternatives

For those bypassing the hotel circuit entirely, IKEA works as an accessible iftar destination with no reservation required. Seasonal menu items include Baked Chicken Mandi at RM16.90, Lamb Kabsa at RM24.90, and Lamb Shank Kabsa at RM44.90, alongside live stations for cendol and bubur lambuk. It’s not glamorous, but at RM25 per head versus RM250, the maths speaks for itself.

Homst Restaurant offers set menus for 10 pax priced between RM729 and RM1,050 across their nine outlets, bringing the per-person cost down to around RM75. This is a practical option for large, price-sensitive families.

Open House Catering

If you’re hosting a Hari Raya open house, professional catering can work out cheaper than cooking everything yourself.

  • IDO Catering operates a tiered system from a 12-course Standard Buffet at RM36.90/pax (early bird) to a 20-course Premium Feast at RM69.90/pax, with a 30-guest minimum.
  • Canape Catering focuses on premium “Dome Set” presentations from RM45 to RM79 per pax, with add-ons like whole Kambing Golek at RM1,850 or satay at RM1.50/stick (minimum 600 sticks).

Retail And Fashion Deals

Most baju raya shopping has moved online, with Shopee and Zalora now the main game in town for ready-to-wear collections.

E-Commerce Platforms

Shopee and Zalora now carry most of the homegrown fashion labels. Shopee’s “Bazar Hebat Ramadan” hosts curated collections from UMMA and Asikin Ahmad, with platform-exclusive vouchers offering 15% off on minimum RM80 or RM130 spends.

Zalora runs a complex matrix of promo codes layered with banking partnerships. The trick is stacking them: a RM200 baju kurung at 25% off plus 15% Maybank discount comes to RM127.50.

DiscountCode / RequirementValidity
50% OFFSelect Brands (Trendyol, Celovis, etc.)Until 09 Mar 2026
30% OFFRaya Special EditionsUntil 23 Mar 2026

12% OFFPay with RHB CardUntil 30 Jun 2026

The 15% Maybank and 12% RHB discounts stack with sale prices, so don’t forget to apply your bank card at checkout.

Brand-Specific Promotions

Ariani runs a “Mega Lebaran Sales 2026” with tiered pricing. At the entry level, you’ll find 70-80% off selected plain scarves and printed squares at RM19-RM25. New printed voile scarves retail at RM59, but Ariani offers a Buy Now Pay Later option, splitting this into three payments of RM19.67. Premium Twill and Satin squares run RM129, with diamond-embellished versions at RM189.

Jakel has modernised its 2026 RTW offerings through its Shopee “JAKEL ONLINE HQ” store with daily flash sales and free shipping. The Aaron Aziz Baju Melayu collection is discounted 48% to RM119 (from RM229). The Upin & Ipin Kids Baju Melayu is at RM59 following a 72% discount. In the women’s segment, collaborations with Bayu Somerset introduce kurungs and kebayas starting from RM42.

Lotus’s has launched the “RamRaya 2026” campaign with RAHMAH Raya clothing starting from RM39, alongside 50% discounts on fresh goods. AEON matches this with “Do-It Raya” and “Jualan Rahmah” campaigns, offering RM5 free e-vouchers for every RM80 spent on weekends.

Home And Electronics

Refreshing the home before Raya is an annual tradition, and retailers know it. This year, the big names are offering gifts with purchase and e-wallet cashback rather than straight discounts.

Samsung: The “Gong Xi Raya 2026” campaign runs through 31 March 2026, offering up to RM4,499 in value for TV, audio, and appliance purchases. Rewards come as Touch ‘n Go eWallet credit (up to RM4,000 for TVs, RM300 for audio/appliances) and Samsonite luggage valued at RM1,299. If you’re already planning a big appliance purchase, these extras are hard to ignore. Cross-category bundling (TV + Soundbar, Washer + Dryer) triggers up to RM500 extra Touch ‘n Go eWallet credit.

Senheng and senQ: The “Toshiba Riang Ria Raya” promotion offers Touch ‘n Go eWallet rebates from RM30 to RM800 depending on the appliance, alongside Buy 1 Free 1 mechanics on selected items.

Harvey Norman: The Mid Valley KL Flagship Store is running a Mega Raya Sale with up to 80% off or RM4,000 in savings on furniture and electronics. Harvey Norman also offers a 20% discount (capped at RM20) when using PayLater by Grab.

IKEA: The new GOKVÄLLÅ collection features brass-toned tealight lanterns, specialised tableware, floor cushions, and LED lighting chains for affordable festive home decoration. The STRANDTORP extendable table seats eight, useful if you’re hosting and need the extra space.

Balik Kampung Flights

Balik kampung is non-negotiable for most families, and flight prices have historically spiked during peak travel windows. The good news: major carriers have instituted fixed-fare structures under government mandate this year, so you won’t see the usual algorithmic price gouging.

AirlineSarawak Base FareSabah Base Fare
FireflyRM298RM348
AirAsiaRM328RM398
Malaysia AirlinesRM339RM399

During the absolute peak window (17-20 March 2026), fares are capped at RM548 for Firefly, RM569 for Malaysia Airlines, and around RM600 for AirAsia.

Malaysia Aviation Group (Malaysia Airlines and Firefly) has deployed over 2,700 additional domestic flights for the festive surge. Malaysia Airlines operates up to 1,557 of these, with aircraft upgrades on high-traffic routes like Alor Setar, Kota Bharu, Kuching, Tawau, and Kota Kinabalu, plus late-night red-eye flights.

AirAsia has set base fixed fares at RM328 for KL-Sarawak routes (Kuching, Miri, Sibu, Bintulu) and RM398 for KL-Sabah routes (Kota Kinabalu, Tawau, Sandakan). The airline has added 150 supplementary domestic flights and over 4,400 total flights during the festive period.

For flight + hotel packages, MHholidays offers an RM107 discount on packages exceeding RM3,200 using promo code MHHRAYA107.

Grab Promotions

Grab is pushing its PayLater credit facility hard this Raya season, with some genuinely substantial discounts if you’re willing to use it.

Promo CodeValueConditions
PAYLATERRAYARM35 OFFPayLater, min RM100 spend
GRABPAYRAYARM15 OFFGrabPay, min RM100 spend
MCGRABRM5 OFFGrabFood/Transport, Mastercard World/Elite

Unlisted codes also offer RM25 off at tech retailers (Switch, senQ) via PayLater, and RM5 off the first GrabExpress delivery for new users.

The RM35 off a RM100 spend through PayLater represents a 35% effective discount. GrabFood’s Group Order feature with 20% off works well for office iftar gatherings. Grab is also offering 50% off the GrabUnlimited yearly plan, which locks in delivery savings for the rest of 2026.

Making the Most of Raya Deals

The best Raya deals reward those who plan ahead. Book your buffet in February for 20-30% off. Stack your Zalora codes with bank discounts. Lock in fixed-fare flights before the caps fill up. And if you’re chasing bank cashback, check whether you actually meet the spending thresholds before counting on that money.
