Merdeka Day is always a good excuse to head out, spend time with family and friends, and enjoy a little treat along the way. If coffee or milk tea is part of the plan, ZUS Coffee has prepared a one-day Merdeka promotion that could be worth checking out.

On 31 August 2026, customers who bring and present a Malaysian flag, or Jalur Gemilang, at the time of purchase can enjoy one selected drink for just RM6.90. The offer is available to the first 69 eligible customers at participating ZUS Coffee outlets, making this a limited-time deal that bargain hunters may want to plan for rather than leave until the last minute.

The promotion is particularly straightforward. There is no complicated spending requirement and no need to collect points or purchase multiple items. Customers simply need to bring a Jalur Gemilang and make a qualifying walk-in order at a participating outlet.

There are, however, several important terms and conditions to understand before heading out.

Enjoy Selected ZUS Coffee Drinks for RM6.90

The main attraction is clearly the RM6.90 price. The promotion allows eligible customers to choose one selected drink from the following list:

• ZUS Gula Melaka
• Hot or Iced CEO Latté
• Hot or Iced CEO Chocolate
• Hot or Iced White Peach Oolong Milk Tea
• Hot or Iced Jasmine Milk Tea
• Hot or Iced Da Hong Pao Milk Tea

There is a nice mix of options here, so customers are not limited to coffee alone. Those who enjoy a stronger coffee-based drink can consider the CEO Latté, while chocolate fans can opt for the CEO Chocolate.

The ZUS Gula Melaka is another option for customers who enjoy the familiar local-inspired flavour. For tea drinkers, there are three milk tea choices, including White Peach Oolong, Jasmine and Da Hong Pao.

The availability of both hot and iced versions for selected drinks also makes the offer suitable whether customers prefer something warm or are looking for a refreshing drink on a typically warm Malaysian public holiday.

Do note that the promotion is limited to one redemption per user, so customers should choose their preferred drink carefully when placing their order.

Bring the Jalur Gemilang to Qualify

The main requirement is simple but important: customers must bring and present a Malaysian flag, the Jalur Gemilang, at the time of purchase.

This is not simply a promotion code that can be entered at the counter. The flag needs to be presented when making the purchase, and the final verification is at the sole discretion of the barista on duty.

That means customers hoping to enjoy the RM6.90 price should make sure the Jalur Gemilang is with them before arriving at the outlet.

It also gives the promotion a distinctly Merdeka feel. Instead of being just another discounted beverage campaign, the offer encourages customers to bring along one of the most recognisable symbols of Malaysia while celebrating Merdeka Day.

For families, this could even become part of a simple Merdeka outing. Children can bring a small flag along while the family stops for drinks, making the promotion a fun little addition to an otherwise ordinary public holiday.

First 69 Customers Only

There is one detail that bargain hunters should pay particularly close attention to: the promotion is limited to the first 69 customers who meet the requirements.

Once those 69 eligible customers have claimed the offer at an outlet, the promotion will no longer be available there.

The promotion is also valid on 31 August 2026 only and while stocks last. Therefore, customers who are serious about getting the RM6.90 deal may want to visit earlier in the day instead of assuming the offer will still be available later.

There is no guarantee that arriving towards the end of the day will result in a successful redemption.

Since Merdeka Day is a public holiday and many Malaysians may already be heading to shopping centres, town centres and popular food and beverage locations, the limited allocation could make timing especially important.

Walk-In Orders Only

Another important point concerns how the order is placed.

The promotion is valid for walk-in orders only. It does not apply to scheduled orders, ZUS App Pick-Up, ZUS App Delivery or orders made through third-party platforms.

This means customers should not place an order through the ZUS app beforehand expecting the RM6.90 offer to be applied.

Instead, the qualifying purchase needs to be made directly as a walk-in order at a participating outlet, with the Jalur Gemilang presented at the time of purchase.

This is worth remembering because customers who are used to ordering ahead through an app may otherwise miss the requirements of the promotion.

Which ZUS Coffee Outlets Are Included?

The promotion is available at all ZUS Coffee outlets except for a specific list of excluded locations.

The excluded outlets are:

• ZUS Signature Coffee – Sunway Pyramid (Oasis Entrance)
• ZUS Signature – Menara Keck Seng, Jalan Bukit Bintang
• ZUS Signature – Taman Paramount, Petaling Jaya
• ZUS Signature Coffee – Fahrenheit88 Mall
• ZUS Coffee – Melaka River Cruise Jeti Quayside
• ZUS Signature – Mount Austin, Johor Bahru
• ZUS Coffee – Bandar Hilir, Melaka
• ZUS Signature Coffee – Jalan Puteri 1/4, Bandar Puteri Puchong
• ZUS Signature Coffee – Desa Sri Hartamas
• ZUS Signature Coffee – Sunway 163 Mall
• ZUS Signature Coffee – Presint 15, Putrajaya
• ZUS Signature Coffee – Ombak KLCC Mall
• ZUS Signature Coffee – Jalan Radin Bagus, Sri Petaling
• ZUS Signature Coffee – Taman Danau Desa
• ZUS Signature Coffee – Uptown Damansara, Petaling Jaya
• ZUS Coffee – Recharge Riders @ D’Tebing, Kuala Lumpur
• ZUS Signature Coffee – Setia City Mall, Lower Ground Floor
• ZUS Signature Coffee – Jalan Molek 3/20, Johor Bahru
• ZUS Signature Coffee – Lucerne Residence, Bayan Lepas
• ZUS Signature Coffee – IOI City Mall, First Floor

For anyone planning to take advantage of the promotion, checking the outlet name before travelling is a sensible move. A quick check can help avoid arriving at one of the excluded locations and discovering that the offer is not available there.

Can the RM6.90 Deal Be Combined With Other Promotions?

This is another area where customers need to be careful.

The RM6.90 Merdeka promotion cannot be combined with other ongoing promotions, gift-with-purchase offers, discounted items or vouchers.

It is also not applicable to ZUS Coffee Club’s cup count collection for membership level upgrades.

The drink also cannot be exchanged for cash or another product. The promotion remains subject to product availability, so even at a participating outlet, customers should be aware that their preferred selected drink may not be available.

These restrictions are fairly typical for a limited-time promotional offer, but they are worth knowing before ordering.

Why Should You Enjoy This Merdeka Deal?

For anyone already planning to head out on 31 August, this is a relatively easy promotion to take advantage of if the requirements are met.

The biggest attraction is the RM6.90 price, especially for customers who regularly enjoy coffee, chocolate or milk tea. Rather than needing to spend a minimum amount to unlock a discount, the promotion is based around bringing the Jalur Gemilang and being among the first eligible customers.

It can also be a nice addition to a Merdeka Day outing. Customers could stop at ZUS Coffee before shopping, after breakfast, during a family day out or while meeting friends.

There is also something satisfying about finding a good-value drink deal on a public holiday. RM6.90 may not seem like a huge saving on its own, but for anyone who was already planning to buy a drink, it can make the purchase a little easier on the wallet.

The limited 69-customer allocation means the deal is more suited to customers who are prepared to plan ahead. Bring the Jalur Gemilang, choose a participating outlet and consider going earlier rather than waiting until the last moment.

A Simple Way to Celebrate Merdeka

The ZUS Coffee Merdeka RM6.90 promotion is only available for one day, but it offers a simple way to add something extra to the 31 August celebrations.

Customers get a choice of coffee, chocolate and milk tea drinks, while the Jalur Gemilang requirement gives the promotion its own patriotic touch. With the offer available at most ZUS Coffee outlets, there should be plenty of opportunities for eligible customers to look for a convenient participating location.

Just remember the key conditions: 31 August 2026 only, walk-in orders, Jalur Gemilang must be presented at purchase, one redemption per user, and only the first 69 eligible customers can enjoy the RM6.90 price at each participating outlet.

The promotion is also subject to product availability and other terms and conditions, so it is worth checking the latest information before setting off.

ZUS Coffee also reserves the right to amend or cancel the promotion at any time, so customers should take note of the official terms.

For the original announcement and promotional updates, customers can refer to the ZUS Coffee Facebook post.

If a Merdeka Day coffee run is already on the agenda, bringing along the Jalur Gemilang could make the visit a little more rewarding. Just be early, check the outlet is not on the exclusion list and remember that the first 69 eligible customers get the opportunity to enjoy the selected drink at RM6.90.
