No application required for one-off RM100 SARA aid – MOF

THE Finance Ministry (MOF) has issued a reminder that the one-off RM100 Sumbangan Asas Rahmah (SARA) cash aid on Aug 31 did not require any application and will be directly credited into each recipient’s identification card.

Deputy Treasury secretary-general (Policy) Datuk Zamzuri Abdul Aziz said the cash aid did not utlise any e-Wallet service as well.

"As such, the public is urged to avoid being deceived by any scam claiming that they can assist with applications or providing links to any e-Wallet,” he told reporters after inspecting the Rahmah Cash Aid programme in Pulau Bum Bum here today.

Zamzuri, according to Bernama reports,  explained that the SARA cash aid did not use any middlemen and the RM100 would be directly credited into the identification card of individuals aged 18 and above. – July 26, 2025
