Is their plan public ?

Of course not πŸ€¦β€β™€οΈ some would know about it anyways

Malaysia one probably little later on...

Situation could be same too...

Not much excitement.... How many debit card one needs nowadays πŸ˜”
*
How much debit can offer πŸ€¦β€β™€οΈ when it restricted to savings amount and the most is BNPL cashback only

QUOTE(ericlaiys @ Dec 1 2023, 08:40 PM)
well 1% cash back is good debit card. some cc dont give reward on gov transaction or other transaction (depend on cc). if existing cashback cc has exceeded requirement and other retail only give 0.2%. so this is an attractive card.
i dont see any debit card give 1% cashback. it is better than sg debit card give lousy reward when exceed $10
*
1% cashback unlimited is attractive with some restrictions

QUOTE(Natsukashii @ Dec 1 2023, 09:40 PM)
If it's digital version only first, hopefully can use it on apple/google pay

The cashback don't apply to e-wallet topups..
*
Not that simple to sign on Google or Apple Pay πŸ€¦β€β™€οΈ even tiger bank took them more than 4 years to just to able to get Apple to agree to on board them

QUOTE(dark_axl21 @ Dec 1 2023, 09:53 PM)
I think Maybank having problems again?
*
Paynet issue πŸ€¦β€β™€οΈ seems like the routing problem

QUOTE(nexona88 @ Dec 1 2023, 10:20 PM)
Money already deducted from HLB, Maybank etc. But not reflected in GX Bank....

Something broken in Duitnow πŸ€¦β€β™€οΈ since Dec 1 as their payload cannot handle πŸ€¦β€β™€οΈ

QUOTE(Natsukashii @ Dec 1 2023, 10:25 PM)
No support for apple/google pay, that's sad. I tried to go back few pages, I don't see it has been said..

Anyway I mean, since the card has cashback 1%, which is the highlight of the product, and since they release virtual ahead of the physical, there is not much usage where common people can get the cashback. Let's say you go watson, how to use the card in the way to get the cashback.. you can't.

If they let us use for google pay, then even without the physical card, people can still get the cashback.

Of course it's smart decision, but it's the highlight of the product. I'm not asking for them to support e-wallet because I'm aware of it can be loophole, I'm asking for them to support google/apple pay, which is different from e-wallet.

They might suprise you πŸ€¦β€β™€οΈ with digital version in GX app which are able to scan with your phone on the terminal so just wait for the launch within coming weeks

QUOTE(ericlaiys @ Dec 1 2023, 10:29 PM)
may be paynet issue??? this is problem when all bank leverage and monopoly by duitnow (owned by paynet)
*
Yes seems like Paynet issue πŸ€¦β€β™€οΈ and you have to blame BNM as they are the majority owner of it πŸ€¦β€β™€οΈ

I think too many pple try to register and jam up the system. I registered yesterday, took almost 2 hours for approval. After than bank in RM100, immediately rebate RM20. Registered duitnow get RM8 too. I think must be patience enough to register this new account πŸ˜‚. I immediately chat with GX Bank when I submitted my application and no instant approval. Thought my ID not clear or what. The CS very patient to ask me wait. πŸ˜‚

Let's approach this from a different angle. If you're aiming for a consistent daily return of 100.00, and assuming a fixed interest rate, you can determine the initial deposit needed using the formula for daily interest:

\[ \text{Daily Interest} = \frac{\text{Principal Amount} \times \text{Annual Interest Rate}}{\text{Number of Days in a Year}} \]

Given that you want a daily interest of 100.00 and assuming a 365-day year, let's solve for the principal amount:

\[ 100.00 = \frac{\text{Principal Amount} \times 0.03}{365} \]

Solving for the principal amount:

\[ \text{Principal Amount} = \frac{100.00 \times 365}{0.03} \]
\[ \text{Principal Amount} \approx 1,216,666.67 \]

Therefore, to receive a clean 100.00 return daily at a 3% annual interest rate, you'd need an initial deposit of approximately 1,216,666.67 units of your currency. Achieving such high daily returns typically involves high-risk investments, and finding guaranteed returns at this level can be extremely challenging through traditional financial instruments. Always be cautious and seek professional advice before pursuing investments promising exceptionally high returns.

Digital banks still got operating costs πŸ€¦β€β™€οΈ like infrastructure and customer servicing costs πŸ€¦β€β™€οΈ the only thing is that digital banks doesn’t have its physical presence costs and low manpower costs

No such thing as free lunch πŸ€¦β€β™€οΈ as even Tech Giants like Mag7 has costs running the business so nothings is free of costs otherwise why do you think there is subscription fee for certain services πŸ€¦β€β™€οΈ particularly premium service

The only free lunch you can get is the unlimited 1% cash back debit on spending with some exceptions hence that is where GX is smart in capturing the market unlike TnG πŸ€¦β€β™€οΈ which gives you points that is expiring

Not the best bank πŸ€¦β€β™€οΈ but probably best digital bank

They got first mover advantage while the other 4 wait and see

Boost should be quite soon after these because they are supposed to launch by this year end

mmm you seem knowledge-able in this niche.

What I foresee is there is too many "app/fintech-service/etc" in a small ecosystem in Malaysia. And bank negara does seem to "purge" any of them via consolidation.

In fact not too many πŸ€¦β€β™€οΈ look at the EWallet providers how many of them have survive when they issued to about 10 providers

In fact the size is right with 5 digital banks πŸ€¦β€β™€οΈ as there are too many conventional banks around which BNM will not and should interfere because it’s survival of the fittest

BNM will only steps in last resort to force via merger or consolidation as they did before with major anchor banks buying which is why you would see big 4 banks in Malaysia now

And if it’s app doesn’t means it is FinTech πŸ€¦β€β™€οΈ as it is only FinTech if it licensed and able to do monetary transactions through the app with licensed by BNM with different categories

For example Boost, TnG Digital and Grab under emoney license πŸ€¦β€β™€οΈ while GX and the upcoming BoostRHB are actual digital bank license and you can actually store money like a conventional bank except it is digital run bank with proper PIDM protection up to 250k
