I don't think this is the reason because
1. CC holders can still withdraw from ATM without going through boost
2. Why should boost care if the cc holder doesn't pay back the bank, unless it's BNM's instruction?

The main reason could be this, as stated in the first post.
Simpanan wang ini juga akan mengalakkan lagi transaksi dan penggunaan dalam ekosistem Boost ini sendiri.

The simplest form should be cash, no?

I don't have boost wallet. I find the "shake for coins" idea silly. I already have T&G and Grab, and I don't want to have more spare cash lying idle in yet another e-wallet.

I think allowing users to withdraw cash is not (that) beneficial to them due to transaction and administrative costs involved - compared to users using it at merchants.

Who paid for the cb? Boost or the bank?

So it doesn't make sense for boost to stop withdrawal if preventing cb abuse is the reason.

There should be a limit for boost. You can't transfer rm10k, for example.

How much did boost charge for withdrawal vs cc advance?

And if it's free money as you said "tak bayar cc", the difference is immaterial, right?

So, the next "order" from BNM is to ban cc cash advance via atm, since they're not going to pay anyway?

TQ for the information.

Anyway it's still immaterial because the argument put forth is people who withdraw via boost have no intention to repay the bank.

My point is, if abusing cb or interest from withdrawal is the reason for boost to stop, it does not make sense because it's the bank that loses, not boost.

That's what I think too. Deswai it's baffling when someone wrote it's to stem the abuse when ppl withdraw money.

If they continue to offer cashback, I don't see why people will ditch them for duitnow.

Nope, as long as they continue to give cashback for retail expenses, I don't know why I need to switch to duitnow.

He said people go yolo and don't pay the cc after transferring to boost and withdraw from boost. So I replied it makes no difference because he can withdraw from ATM using the cc directly and still go yolo.

As someone said here, lower withdrawal fees compared to cc advance withdrawal and interest free 20-day repayment period after you transfer from cc to boost.
Or getting cashback from bank for the top up to boost, then withdraw at lower fee than the cb earned.

Whether it's abuse or not, it's up to individual's viewpoint. However, for them to suggest that the reason Boost stops the withdrawal is due to this "abuse" does not make sense to me because it's the banks that are losing out, not Boost.

I think so too. It's also mentioned in the first post about wanting users to spend in their ecosystem or sthg like that.
