What happened to Boost E-Wallet nowadays? It seems like merchant out there no longer promote kaw kaw on the usage of Boost. They still accept, however not agressive like other e wallet.

I noticed that people nowadays just stick to use Touch n go, Grab, Shopeepay or Maybank QR pay.

The successful ones are those that offer other services on top of their wallets. Grab had food and car. Shoppee has shopping. And maybank is after all a bank.

What does boost do aside from their wallet?

That's reminds me imma delete it

Already stop using it long time ago after they "upgrade" their point system.

yup

TnG getting more popular.. even pasar malam stores accept them cause majority of ppl use TnG anyway

theyre losing the ewallet war, that is for sure

I prefer Boost over TnG since at least can redeem points. TnG spend few k also habuk no benefit.

well said

just another axiata group punya product. what do u expect?
remember 11street ? yup. same product from the same co.

dulu can get free money
after they change to coins/points nobody want dy

My vending only accept ewallet. Top user ranking based on purchase survey:

1. TnG
2. Maybank
3. Grab
4. Sophie
5. Boost (unker notice veryy few users)

tng will be the last man standing

Bcos jus too freaking merchant .. u jus need 1 wallet .. who dafug wan to preload their money to so many merchant . Now all accept duit Now QR code u basically can use any wallet to pay .

well boost really nothing special.. since most merchant nowadays also accept TnG and grabpay..

because boost has no additional feature/service on it, unlike TnGO ewallet which has tol and parking system, grab has e-hailing and food delivery services

I think many people stick to Touch n go due to most merchant accept this e wallet

thanks TS for reminding me to delete Boost app

I noticed a lot of Maybank QR pay users due to maybank is the number 1 bank in Malaysia and a lot of us have maybank account

They rapidly get attention of market earlier by offering cash rebate, now no more or difficult to get it, den i stop using their platform as well

TnG has won this market.

because if bnm only award 1 ewallet license, then Malaysian will complain it's a crony company and should award more so get more competition

now when award a few, people complain it's too many, should only have 1 ewallet system

i use boost to pay at petronas becos have setel integration

now don't have anymore zzz

Other spell correctly, no 4 is non malaysia ewallet

Not blaming the system… it is jus up to the ewallet provider to be relevant and seek more user or get phase out nia… TNg can survive bcos of the toll n bank backing … grab can survive becos they are Grab.. shopee also bcos they have platform for shopping n food… boast really jialat got nothing … if they review back their point and cash back system maybe can attract back kot

ayam predict another kaodim.com soon

Grab > Boost > TNG > Shopee Pay now for me due to their reward scheme. Currently Grab reward point has the most value per dollar spent.

Since Maybank (and other local bank) already got QR, no point to use Boost anymore. Saves the trouble of top up Boost account.

I haven't use Boost for months and probably abandon it.

do boost ever announce winner for the star point contest ?


Lau Li Kung also never won kah

It happens when the market is flooded with competitors, just like phones, basically survival of the fittest

But when the fittest chose the bad strategy, downfall can also happen

Ayam been using e wallet since 2017 and Boost being the first, Boost was ahead cuz they were willing to dump tons of money on cashback and rewards, but then it wasn't sustainable in the long run so they had to change strategy few years later, but the current point system is not very attractive because it's hard to level up and earn more points

Grabpay is also quite similar to Boost although they didn't spend as much, their point system cashback was very attractive until they had to do major reduction and that's how the momentum got away

TnG e wallet although screwed up initially was bound to grow at a quick pace because not just because they also have budget to dump in for cashbacks, their service can be tied to toll payments, hence it has tons of potential userbase already to begin with

When it comes to Boost, it won't die off anytime soon, they will just keep adding more new features to focus on, they might also launch their prepaid card (TnG also coming soon) to compete with Bigpay

Personally using these e wallets cuz ayam like options (Boost > TnG > MAE > Shopeepay > Grabpay), and still using Boost because the point system still kinda useful for ayam since can redeem vouchers for bill payments lol.

The good times of getting cashback before the points system. Swear that's when the fall off began

It is insane I use tng, grab, and shopee for their wallet purpose

At least all these can withdraw

I just installed and registered Boost because got RM5 cashback on McDonalds.

I used to use it, now no more. Just keep to credit card and tng for tolls and parking.

Sometimes shopeepay for the free shipping.

Biasalah hothot chicken shit

all the QR code now link to Duitnow. you can use any e-wallet

They don't announce but email only. I won an IPad from Boost before.

I still use Boost regularly, I get cashbacks and stars by joining missions, also can get good deals on rewards. I think the problem is the app has too many hidden features/deals that people tend to miss out. Another issue is the payment machine at vendor side always update and too slow to boot up. I am Gold General status user with more than 200,000 stars. and no, I don't work for Boost lol.

long time already delete boost acc, no use.

fuck, i still got rm4 in this wallet.

as mentioned earlier, last time you actually get money from their rewards...

nowadays useless points.

stop using months ago.

did anyone notice Grab rewards F&B category have 3 rewards to change?

even other categories also the same, limited rewards to change for points. are they like restructuring the point system?

Still using Boost to collect stars, which then i use to discount further bill payments. better than dysfunctional TM rewards or non-existent with TnG.

other than paying bills, not used.

as i always said CASH IS KING

and add too many thing on app, too laggy

not yet get additional moolah from investors so have to stop burning moolah already.

Bro u no get the memo? Getting Grab points gonna sux soon
