Rembayung introduces new booking system to curb scalpers

Popular restaurant Rembayung has implemented a new reservation system, partnering with Grab to tackle scalping and prevent the resale of bookings. The innovative system, announced by content creator and entrepreneur Khairul Aming, limits each verified Grab user to one reservation every two weeks. Reservations are now non-transferable and require customers to present the phone used for booking and open the Grab app upon entering the establishment.

Screenshots of reservations are not accepted. The new Grab-based reservations can be made starting today. Khairul Aming expressed optimism that these measures would help curb scalping, an issue that has concerned customers seeking restaurant reservations.
