MyKomuter50 activation opens November 16 for RM50 rail passes
Travel begins December 1, with each pass covering 30 days of unlimited journeys on selected KTM Komuter services.
Keretapi Tanah Melayu Bhd (KTMB) said passengers can activate its MyKomuter50 pass from November 16, ahead of travel starting December 1. Priced at RM50, the pass provides unlimited journeys for 30 days on selected services, with potential savings of up to 88 per cent.
In its November 12 statement, the operator said the scheme was intended to reduce living costs, particularly for people travelling to workplaces and educational institutions. Separate RM50 passes are offered for the Northern Sector, Klang Valley and Southern Shuttle services.
Eligibility is limited to Malaysian citizens aged seven and above who do not hold a MyRailLife Pass. Applicants must provide a MyKad or MyKid to confirm they qualify.
Passengers can submit an identification document through either the KTM Mobile app or KITS Style app, with checks potentially taking up to three working days. Verification is immediate at KTM Komuter station ticket kiosks or counters.
Activation and purchases will be offered at 34 selected stations: 10 in the Northern Sector, 20 in the Klang Valley and four serving the Southern Shuttle. KTMB will also provide 11 additional registration counters.
KTMB estimated that a Tanjung Malim–KL Sentral commuter spending RM416 over 30 days could save RM366 with the pass. For Alor Setar–Butterworth, it put savings at up to RM234, or about 82 per cent, against estimated regular fares of RM284 for the same period and travel frequency.
