Our story

Born in a kopitiam, built for Malaysia.

WefavourMY started with a simple frustration — and a simple question: why is earning rewards so hard in this country?

☕ Where it all began — KL, 2022
The beginning

One wallet stuffed with loyalty cards

In 2022, our founders emptied their wallets on a kopitiam table in Kuala Lumpur and counted fourteen loyalty cards — coffee shops, grocers, petrol stations, a bookstore. Fourteen apps, fourteen logins, fourteen ways to lose points.

Meanwhile, small Malaysian businesses — the ones that make this country special — couldn't afford the fancy loyalty systems big chains use. They were losing their best customers to competitors who could.

WefavourMY was the answer to both problems. One app for shoppers to earn everywhere. One simple, affordable programme for merchants to reward loyalty. We favour the people who make Malaysia tick — that's the whole idea.

What we stand for

Three values, zero compromise

⚖️

Fairness first

Transparent earn rates, clear terms, points that don't vanish silently. If we wouldn't accept it as members, we don't ship it as a company.

🤝

Local at heart

We back Malaysian businesses — from heritage kopitiams to homegrown skincare brands. When our members win, local merchants win too.

🌱

Generosity by design

Rewards are meant to be used, not hoarded. Generous redemption, reminders before expiry, and giving members the choice to share points with causes they care about.
