> Quick view: until 16 October 2026, Haidilao Malaysia is selling Happy Pass voucher packs at RM18.80 (3 vouchers, 30 days) and RM22.80 (7 vouchers, 90 days), bought on the iPad menu at your table. One voucher works per bill and each needs a minimum spend. The 30-day pack pays for itself on a single RM100 meal. The 90-day pack only makes sense if you'll be back at least twice in three months.

Haidilao Malaysia announced Happy Pass on its official Instagram on 15 September, with sales opening the next day. It works like a small subscription. You pay a few ringgit once, and in return you get a strip of discount vouchers to spend over the following 30 or 90 days. Haidilao's own posters put the maximum saving at "RM80+" for the 30-day pack and "RM150+" for the 90-day pack. Those figures assume you use every voucher at or above its minimum spend, so the real saving depends on how often you eat there.

What's inside each pack

Haidilao Treats 30 costs RM18.80 and gives you 3 vouchers to use within 30 days:

  • RM20 off a bill of RM100 or more, valid from the day you buy.
  • RM30 off a bill of RM200 or more, valid from the next day.
  • 15% off food items on a bill of RM200 or more, valid from the next day.

Haidilao Treats 90 costs RM22.80 and gives you 7 vouchers to use within 90 days:

  • RM20 off a bill of RM100 or more, valid from the day you buy.
  • Two RM30-off vouchers, each needing a RM200 bill, valid from the next day.
  • RM50 off a bill of RM300 or more, valid from the next day.
  • Two vouchers for 15% off food items, each needing a RM200 bill, valid from the next day.
  • One half portion of Haidilao's signature prawn paste, on a bill of RM100 or more, valid from the next day.

Both prices include tax, according to the poster.

How to buy and use it, step by step

  1. Sit down at a Haidilao outlet. The pass is sold through the restaurant's iPad ordering menu, not a website, so you buy it at the table.
  2. Pick 30 or 90 days and add it to your order. Haidilao says quantities are limited, and sales close on 16 October 2026.
  3. Use the RM20 voucher straight away if your bill that day reaches RM100. It is the only voucher that works on the purchase day.
  4. Come back for the rest. Every other voucher starts the day after you buy, and only one can go on each bill.
  5. Watch the clock. The vouchers lapse at the end of the 30- or 90-day period, and the date printed on each voucher is the one that counts.

The Chinese terms add that the vouchers are tied to your own member account and can't be given away or swapped for cash.

Worked examples: does it pay back?

  • Two friends, one dinner, RM110 bill. Buy the 30-day pack and use the RM20 voucher on the spot. You pay RM90 plus RM18.80 for the pass, so RM108.80 in total. That is RM1.20 saved and two unused vouchers, which is only a gain if you return within the month with RM200 bills. The 90-day pack on the same night costs RM112.80 in total, RM2.80 more than paying normally.
  • A couple who go twice a month. First visit RM120: RM20 off. Second visit RM210: RM30 off. That's RM50 off across two meals for RM18.80, a net RM31.20. The 15% voucher is left over for a third visit.
  • A family of four eating out every three weeks, bills around RM320. Over 90 days that's roughly four visits. Using the RM50, RM30, RM30 and 15%-off vouchers (15% of, say, RM280 in food is RM42) gives about RM152 off for RM22.80. That's a net saving near RM129, close to Haidilao's "RM150+" claim.

Rule of thumb: the 30-day pack breaks even on one RM100 bill. The 90-day pack needs two visits, one of them RM200 or more, before it beats not buying anything.

The new RM128 set for two, and why you'll have to choose

The same fortnight brought a new menu item. The Green Peppercorn Triple-Fresh Set, launched on 21 September across West Malaysia, costs RM128 for two. It includes the Green Sichuan Pepper Snakehead Fish Pot plus one second soup (Three Delicacy, Upgraded Tomato or the spicy beef milk soup), fresh-cut pork collar and pork tenderloin, three vegetables from a list of five, golden fried mantou, and noodles or rice. Each set also comes with a limited-edition umbrella or mini bottle, given at random while stock lasts. Post a photo with #HaidilaoFreshCut and the outlet tagged, and you get a lucky-draw chance at a drink or a RM20 voucher for your next visit.

The set poster says it cannot be combined with other promotions, and the Happy Pass terms say the same. Plan on using either the set or a pass voucher on a bill, not both. The set suits two people who want a fixed price. The pass works better on bigger à la carte tables where the RM30 and RM50 vouchers kick in.

Who it's good for, and who should skip it

Good for: regulars who already eat at Haidilao monthly, groups of four or more whose bills clear RM200 easily, and members who also use Haidilao's Tuesday member days. Pick one discount per visit and save the pass voucher for the weeks without a member-day deal.

Skip it if: you go once or twice a year, you eat solo (the new solo sets from RM35.90, currently at Gurney Paragon, Ipoh Station 18, Vivacity Kuching and Setia City Mall, won't reach RM100), or you need halal food. Haidilao's menu includes pork, including both meats in the new set.

Fine print that trips people up

  • One voucher per bill. Two couples splitting one table can't put two vouchers on a single bill. Ask for separate bills only if the restaurant agrees.
  • Minimum spend must be met first. The poster doesn't say whether the RM100, RM200 or RM300 threshold counts before or after tax, so leave a little headroom.
  • "Food items" means food. The 15% vouchers are for food items, so drinks may not count towards the discount.
  • Next-day start. Buying the 90-day pack at a RM300 dinner doesn't unlock the RM50 voucher that night.
  • Limited quantity. Sales can close before 16 October if stock runs out.
