BANKING apps have revolutionised the way Malaysians handle their finances. From faster transactions to online banking, banking apps are efficient because users can do everything with just a smartphone.
Now, the MAE app by Maybank2u is taking banking apps to the next level by introducing a food delivery feature, so users can order food, groceries and settle their banking all in one app.
Sama-Sama Lokal, a platform under the MAE app, allows users to place their orders with local merchants to help support the local culinary scene.
Complete with a brand new interface and enhanced features, users can opt to have their food delivered straight to their doorstep or pick it up at the store themselves.
From neighbourhood favourites to other local gems, users can discover a variety of delicious cuisine on the MAE app.
Here are the advantages of ordering from the MAE app:
ZERO FEES FOR MERCHANTS
Local merchants can keep the entirety of their earnings, as Sama-Sama Lokal does not charge them any fees.
This spells great news for smaller businesses as Sama-Sama Lokal can provide them with exposure while helping them grow.
On the other hand, zero fees for merchants to join also mean better value for customers as merchants won't have to mark up their goods and services to garner a profit.
VARIETY OF FOOD OPTIONS
More than just a regular banking app, this up-and-coming food delivery platform consists of local vendors such as home-based sellers, hawker stalls and other small but undiscovered eats.
It's much easier to find new food options that cannot usually be found on other platforms, as Sama-Sama Lokal features over 14,000 merchants.
An additional perk is that users can buy their groceries via Sama-Sama Lokal.
Instead of making trips to the local hypermarket, this platform makes it convenient for the public to purchase their daily needs and have them delivered to their houses.
Shopping for groceries online also helps customers limit their contact with others, a huge boon in this day and age where physical distancing is encouraged.
It also makes things easier for those who have hectic schedules or if users need to double-check their pantries to avoid repurchasing the same item.
SAMA-SAMA LOKAL PROMO
Users can now enjoy 40 per cent off (capped at RM8) and up to RM10 off delivery fees when they order food or groceries via the MAE app from now until December 31, 2022. 
Each customer can use this promo code a maximum of two times, once a day.
To enjoy these deals and more, head over to the MAE app and check out the Sama-Sama Lokal platform for more details.
