What:
I summarised a few methods to obtain cash advance/flow by leveraging your credit a.k.a credit cards with lower interest rate.

Reason:
Traditional way to leverage your credit to obtain advance/flow can have very high interest rate
1. Credit card cash advancement/late payment can range from 9-21% p.a.
2. Personal loan interest rate can range from 4-18%

By using methods below, you can leverage your credit cards to obtain around 50days of cash flow to
1. Reduce flexi loan interest. eg: mortgage
2. Investment for higher return rate.

Bonus:
You can use cashback credit cards to further reduce the cash conversion loss or easy payment plan to extend the repayment period. (Some credit cards do offer 0% charges and 0% p.a. interest rate)

QUOTE
The policy/TnC is changing rapidly. The chart below is based on my best knowledge. Kindly let me know if there are any changes or you have other methods.

I understand that you are trying to get cash out of credit card via eWallet so that the total fees will be lower.
However in the end of the day, you still need to pay back the CC, else you will be paying from 1.25% to 1.5% per month on your outstanding balance.
*
Definitely, but now you can have around 50 days of free cash flow.

Conservatively, how much can we earn by doing this?

It's up to you on to what extend you can utilise the cash flow.

If you are using cashback credit card, you can earn certain amount of cashback depending on your credit card.

Thks for the lists... Useful for those that has no cash flow problems, can have time to monitor n track the used money and have places to use the e wallets.
Like decades ago, some suggested using the free interest period of cc to hv multiple cards to keep rolling the usages to optimise the free interest period....
Until if not properly monitored... It boils over
*
Ya. You need to more discipline in repaying the cc every month of course.

Interest free credit period is nothing new. How many have discipline and ability to use this facility?

If one could make worthwhile profits from this interests free credit period, ze doesn't need this facility.

Hmm, can you elaborate more?
I am not aware of other methods to withdraw credit to cash in a low interest way.

Well, it's just a tool to help you gain cashflow. If you can leverage the cashflow efficiently, I am sure it can generate more than RM100.
