Hi, I'm a new boost user here.

Anyone notice that you need to verify MSOS Code after upgrading to Premium Wallet?
Before upgrade, no need to verify OTP.

Thanks.

it seems whenever the topup amount is over certain value then it would be trigger

People who go into the counter as what another bro said they are mostly using cash to pay for their petrol pump.... if use Credit card then they wouldnt need to go inside the counter..... And I believe many ppl still dont know about boost & ewallet too.
am i missed out something here? what is happening there? lazada got offer? Any minimum purchase?
I also wonder since Boost is not charging the merchant the MDR, what are they going to earn some more need to give cash back to users after every purchase....
my fren told me the advertisement.......
But still i am wondering how to earn money for this boost.
I also got ask the familiar merchant which his shop is nearby my house and ask them is Boost charging them anything else? and their reply is no....
they never get paid, boost didnt get any payment from them, they also got no benefit.... benefit is just the users ....

*
they have enough cash flow to support for such reward(?) for their user in order to get bigger market share to stand out from the other. (this would be market penetration, once the stage is completed who else gonna be able to compete with them?)
we wont know if there is any tax relief given by any government body or any kind of support given for supporting the cashless society change initiative. (this would be something that is given government maybe? i dont know just an guess).
as cashless does save on the fee for printing the cash which could easily damage (cost to store, print, and even more environmental friendly) while reduce the need to have better security at the payment (physical security) side thus also can reduce the cost to hire more people for being the cashier

no need discuss la.. common knowledge, even my chicken rice friend use his QR to pay like RM4500 with his own Boost account just to earn the token and get some cashback
when i go makan at his place and if bill is like RM22, i will pay RM122 and he will immediately pay me back cash
we go way back many years so he allow me to do anything hahaha
*
yup this 1 of the trick

QUOTE(avinlim @ May 16 2019, 01:42 PM)
That's very dishonest of doing business, putting T&C out yet hiding more T&C behind...which is not easy to access.
*
well for business related such thing is very common

I guess they gonna lower down the shake reward in future. I think even TNGo cash back is limited if not mistaken.
They are encouraging users to use them. Now just enjoy the benifits while it lasts.
*
once they have got enough market share and eliminated those small small competitor then it would be the time.

Fyi, Alipay in China does have their own shake reward as well though.

Doubt Boost will ever gonna remove that important feature that makes them stand out from the others.
*
it actually is an good feature to keep user stay loyal for their app.
if they really able to convert the society to an fully cashless society, the saving on cash production, control, security measurement all those including transport and natural resource is huge.

QUOTE(fruitie @ May 19 2019, 10:07 PM)
WeChat Pay China has shake reward feature too.

is it?

One day merchants will charge you if you pay by cash, banks will charge you to use ATM and CDM. Will you use cards or e-money? It should happen around 2025. It is already happening in some countries in Europe and China.
*
this mainly would depending how fast it would be fully implement at malaysia. as some of those policy already been enforce by BNM to bank to charge for over counter for credit card payment, etc.....

QUOTE(knwong @ May 20 2019, 09:51 AM)
I like this idea. Printing and handling cash should be chargeable in the future
*
yeah and if do some reading it is actually more cost as compared to cashless. but the stability of cashless solution still need to be take care of

QUOTE(imap.cc @ May 20 2019, 10:05 AM)
I had cancelled most of my debit cards since found myself never use them last few years. My wallet only keep few hundreds as backup, mostly from helping friends top up and pay bills biggrin.gif

Love the convenience of cashless payment by paywave, definitely faster than cash.

Hopefully e-wallets can be faster in the future, eliminate all those narrow minded people and no more system offline excuses.

as of current malaysia, the combination of both is the best. rclxms.gif

I received this SMS and got scam hundreds by providing debit card number. So sad..

you didn't try to check on the url? cause the url itself seem misleading......
but somehow just take it as a lesson and try to make police and hope you could get your money back.
but i think you should contact boost and change those info that you have provided

I think it's related. Few days back, there's a discussion subsequent to the changes Maybank is going to make to their card benefits. So I'm just giving my point on that
*
yes you are right....... but actually the changes could be solve with combination of Boost and BigPay.... depending how you use.

i just use to pay for 100 today also get RM1.50 for cashback. it seem quite a little bit hard to get higher random cashback reward for amount more than 100 this month (although the transaction i make over 100 is barely 4 transaction)
