> Quick view: Gigi Coffee's RM7.90 second-cup payday promotion ran 24 July to 1 August 2026 and has ended. This page now covers what the deal was actually worth, what Gigi Coffee is featuring today, and how its payday promos usually work so you can catch the next one.
The payday promo has ended
The offer was straightforward: buy one selected beverage, get a second selected beverage for RM7.90, at participating Gigi Coffee outlets nationwide and on orders through the Gigi Coffee App. It ran 24 July to 1 August 2026, timed to Malaysia's month-end payday window, and closed on 1 August. Deal trackers also logged a sharper RM6.90 second-cup version over the final weekend (29 July–1 August), though Gigi Coffee did not keep a landing page for either promotion after it lapsed.
What it was actually worth
Gigi Coffee's current menu prices, taken from gigicoffee.com, put most signature drinks between RM12 and RM14: Signature Water Chestnut Latte and Pineapple Water Chestnut Fizz at RM12; Chocolate Latte, Pink Guava Water Chestnut Cooler and Tofu Pudding Water Chestnut Latte at RM13; Red Bean Water Chestnut Latte and Seasalt Caramel Macchiato at RM14.
Two worked examples at those prices:
- Two RM12 drinks: RM24 normally → RM19.90 with the promo. You save RM4.10 (about 17%).
- Two RM14 drinks: RM28 normally → RM21.90 with the promo. You save RM6.10 (about 22%).
The pattern is worth remembering: because the second cup was a fixed RM7.90 rather than a percentage, the discount was largest on the most expensive drinks and nearly worthless on anything already close to RM7.90.
What Gigi Coffee is featuring now
As of 19 August 2026, Gigi Coffee's own Happening page leads with:
- The Classics are BACK — Caramel Macchiato and G-Frappes have returned to the menu, with RM5 off promoted alongside them. Gigi announced the return through its official Instagram account.
- Halal certification — Gigi Coffee states it has received JAKIM halal certification for its outlets and is "working on certifying all the remaining locations", so coverage is not yet chain-wide.
- Water Chestnut series — the current seasonal line-up, and the drinks carrying the RM12–RM14 prices above.
- Gigi Member sign-up — joining still gets you a free coffee, redeemed through the Gigi Coffee App.
One caution: some deal aggregators list a Merdeka "31% off all drinks" promotion running 15 August to 1 September 2026. That offer was not listed on Gigi Coffee's own Happening page when we checked on 19 August, so confirm it in-app or at the counter before planning a trip around it.
How Gigi's payday deals usually work
- They cluster in the last week of the month and run into the 1st, tracking payday rather than public holidays.
- The mechanic is normally a discounted second cup, not a flat percentage off the bill.
- They apply at participating outlets and in-app — participation genuinely varies, so a branch near you may sit one out.
- They are not stackable with vouchers, promo codes, set deals or member-tier discounts.
- Promo orders typically don't earn cup-count loyalty stamps.
Who this suits, and who should skip it
Worth waiting for if you buy coffee in pairs — with a colleague, partner or friend — order the two priciest drinks you both want, and use the app so the discount is visible before you pay.
Skip it if you only ever buy one cup (there is no single-cup benefit), if you are working toward a loyalty-stamp reward, or if you already hold a member-tier discount or voucher worth more than the promo, since none of them stack.
