Don't know. I top up some money and test my luck too laugh.gif

But if tomorrow morning no daily interest can't blame anyone laugh.gif

The safer thing to do is to keep only the minimum amount to earn 8% p.a. in the 4 jars, i.e., 45.75 MYR and the rest in GX Bank (up until 1006.50).

Because the marginal rate for the jars (above 45.75 each) is just 4% for every 91.50 MYR added thereafter, there is no difference between GX Bank's 1006.50 and BoostBank's 4% jar for now.

The only risk to bear, apart from the possibility of losing today's daily interest, is that once the 4 Sabah jars are full, and suppose next month they revise down the rate again (yet when doubled, the effective rate is higher than 4% p.a.), you will need to deposit more money but you can't...

Lots of things to consider...

Can anyone let me get a clearer understanding on Boost's interest rates ?

What's the baseline interest rates that we get for free ? Without the need to unlock or purchase from partnered merchants or whatever. I'm deciding between putting my monthly savings in GX Bank or Boost, my main goal is to get the daily interest amount, NOT the interest rates. But I don't mind finding out which of this 2 digital banks provides higher interest rates ?

Oh i see, so to put it simply, as long as I put a certain amount in saving jars, I get the 3.2%, and then for main account there is no limitations on amount, so in total I would get 5% interest daily ?

P/S - Can I also know how much amount to put in saving jars ?

Alright I emailed them to ask them to allow us to withdraw/deposit with minimum of 0.01 MYR instead of 1 MYR. Let's see if they will change things.

Some updates seem to be ongoing at the moment.

I guess you will soon be able to deposit money into Celebration jar again.
