What do you
think of when you come across the word “MANIS”?
Kind of
taste?
Chocolate
cake?
Romantic
date?
No no no…. the
modern-era meaning of “MANIS” is an phone application where we can convert
receipts into rewards. Just as the tagline of the application implies, “Where
everything counts”.
Criteria
We always like
to set criteria for our target. We love dress that got lots of laces, we love
blue mountain coffee which is highly graded, we want internet speed which can
load once we click…..etc.
SO, what are
the criteria of becoming the user of MANIS? Hey hey, it is as easy as ABC.
You just need
to collect receipt, don’t throw them away. In the olden days, receipt is just a piece of paper to avoid the “bee bee” sound when we pass by the security check
machine at the exit, or it is just a “saman” to claim the money back from our
friends who always do “online shopping” via friends. LOL…
And…. There are
rules & regulations to follow as well.
- Receipt must be uploaded on the same day of the transaction
being performed
- Allowed to upload two receipts from each outlet daily
- Some ineligible receipts like utility bills, parking tickets, prepaid top-ups etc
How do you earn points/rewards?
Step 1 : KEEP the
receipt…keep the receipt…
I need to
highlight this as most of us have the habit of throwing them away.
Step 2 : In
MANIS app, PRESS
the red circle button with $ sign to upload a new receipt
Step 3 : SEARCH
for the merchant
Example : I got
AEON receipt with me. So, I search AEON with the correct merchant location.
Step 4 : KEY in
the amount spent. (RM 1 spent = 1 MANIS point)
You will need
patience for step 7. After uploading, continue doing your work like normal and
you will receive the notification SOON… written in the T&C, they will need
approximately 5 days for verification.
Step 8 : REDEEM the rewards
You can redeem
the rewards in the rewards store once your points are sufficient. There are
lots of E-voucher that you can use. Personally, I prefer grocery vouchers which
are not available at the moment. Guess the demand is so high as there are many
mummies (like me) who are the MANIS fans.
The reasons are
M.A.N.I.S also….. see whether you can read my minds or not. Have fun having
wild guess~ if you get 100% correct, don’t forget to claim a gift from me
personally….
Hmm…. The gift
is…. You will know it when you get 100% correct… Be honest ya!!

Do you still remember
that couple of months ago there was a phone game that people from different
ages are so crazy about it? That is, the POKEMON GO. You can see people looking
at the phone searching for POKEMON, be it in the park or shopping mall….or
washroom too…
No more POKEMON
GO, it is RECEIPT GO!
Once I have
uploaded the receipts, I will receive notification on the verification results.
Of course, most of the time, my receipts are approved and I earn points.
You’ve just
earned XXX points from AEON.
You’ve just
earned XXX points from Tesco Puchong.
You’ve just
earned XXX points from Giant.
Yeah, I will
receive these messagesSSss and they make me happy and kind of award-winning feeling.
There is nowhere I can “win” for so many times within few days. Oh, the winning
prizes are in the form of “POINTS” and still, I need to accumulate in order to
redeem something from the rewards store. It doesn’t matter as I am still
earning points from FOC piece of paper despite my spending.
I am a nagging
mother where I always nag at all the don’t at home.
My MANIS mummy
always nags at me :-
- Receipt photo is blurry/too dark/incomplete
- Receipt uploaded more than 24 hours after transaction time
- Invalid receipt uploaded
Anyhow, she
still cares for me as she gives me POINTS. Haha. Bananana….
MANIS is informative in two ways, one is for myself and another is for the commercial market.
There is a summary of my receipts. They are categorized into different areas and I can see where my money flies into. It is a good way to manage my monthly expenses.
I am only a
consumer but I am glad that I can be part of the statistics in order to boost
up the sales in view of the economy downtime.

Again, it is
all about service when we are the user. Recently, one of my receipts was
rejected and I disagree with the reason given. So I lodged written complaint to
MANIS. Glad that it was resolved within one week.
When I browse
through MANIS facebook page, I observe that MANIS answers/replies almost all of
the feedbacks or comments. Credit to the person who is replying all day long,
the job is not easy especially when complaints are making the way in.
Lastly, I feel
so SWEET lah using MANIS.
