The task
Turn a payment method mix and fee cost review into an automated workflow. It starts when your payment mix and fee rates arrives. It must end with a fee cost review with mix recommendations. Available systems: POS system, Excel/Google Sheets, accounting software. Map out: trigger, fields to capture, AI step, decision rules, where a human approves, what happens on failure, data to store. Also payment fees per sale tracking. Keep the whole thing maintainable by a small team.
Replace “your payment mix and fee rates” and the listed systems with what you actually run.
New here? How the four prompts work together
They are one sequence, not four options. Run them in order on the same piece of work, feeding each answer into the next.
Create
Paste your real data. You get a first draft. Most people never need to go further than this.
Analyse
Paste that draft back in. It tells you what is weak, missing or wrong before a customer sees it.
Optimise
Paste the draft again with what Analyse found. You get a stronger version.
Automate
Only once the output has been good five times running. This is the one people reach for too early.
Nothing forces you through all four. A good Create draft that you edit yourself is a finished job. The longer version.

Is this for you?
- Pick it for
- Malaysian retail and F&B businesses getting more out of their POS. No setup needed. If you can copy and paste, you can run it.
- What you get
- Drafted in minutes, not built from scratch. It aims at cost control. Watch one number: payment fees per sale.
- Reach for it when
- Most SMEs run it quarterly. If you are doing it by hand more often, automate it first.
How to run it
- 01Collect the input: your payment mix and fee rates.
- 02Copy the Create prompt and paste it into ChatGPT, Claude or Gemini.
- 03Replace “your payment mix and fee rates” in the prompt with your real data, then run it.
- 04Read the output against what you already know and correct anything the model guessed at.
- 05Track payment fees per sale. Only wire up the Automate prompt after five useful runs in a row.
The tools you will need
The prompts run in any chat assistant — ChatGPT, Claude or Gemini. These are what you need around them to get the input in and the output somewhere useful.
- Excel/Google Sheets
- Any tool you already use is fine.
- accounting software
- AutoCountMalaysian, widely used for SST and e-Invoice.
- QuickBooks
- Xero
Check the rules yourself
This workflow touches rules set by someone else. Check the current requirements yourself before you act on the output.
- LHDN
- e-Invoice arrived in phases set by turnover. LHDN's published timeline puts Phase 4 at businesses up to RM5 million from 1 January 2026, and exempts those under RM1,000,000 a year. Check which phase you are in before you change how you invoice. Read from LHDN in August 2026; confirm it is still current.
- RMCD
- Cross the registration threshold and you must charge SST and file returns on time. Whether a service is taxable or exempt is decided here, and getting it wrong is expensive to unwind later.
- KPDN
- How you display a price, run a discount and word a promotion is regulated, and a claim about savings has to be true. AI writes persuasive promotional copy very easily — this is the body that decides whether it was misleading.
- JPDP
- Pasting customer or staff records into an AI tool is a transfer of personal data. Consent, notice, retention and cross-border rules still apply when the tool is not yours.

Data & privacy
This workflow involves customer names and purchase records. Under the PDPA your business stays responsible for it, and pasting it into an AI tool may be a disclosure to a third party. Replace names and numbers with initials or references first — the prompt works just as well on “Customer A”.
Using customer data with AI tools in Malaysia covers what to check with any provider before you paste.
For this website, it works differently.
Nothing you type here is sent to us or to an AI model. The prompts are static content, and the copy button works directly inside your browser.
