don't expect debit card to be ready so soon.

they haven't even got the card issuing license approved.

no card BIN has been assigned to boost bank berhad until they are approved to issue cards

different entity and different card type

how did you know this for BoostBank, which is a digital bank?

dude, this topic is about BoostBank, which is a digital bank

what you posted (blindly) was about Boost eWallet. The actual topic is here https://forum.lowyat.net/topic/4698581

different business mah

feel free to argue this with bnm as they are the one issuing the license to operate

boost bank still couldn't issue debit card yet

no approval given to issue card.

better wait first.

all these tactics to keep our money as long as possible so they can earn the floating interests

with this kind of mentality, they shouldn't operate like a bank as it steers away from serving underserved segment. sadly, this segment don't have that much money to keep in boost bank!!

they think can demand such high requirements to earn their little interests vs other digibanks out there.

I wait for the debit card ready first

so far, they don't have approval to issue the card yet. launching today could just be savings account stuffs

SoyaCincau reported, debit card to be ready in July 2024

only 2 approved Islamic digital bank licensee

Aeon Digital Bank

and another KAF Islamic digital bank, a consortium led by KAF Investment Bank Sdn Bhd <-- product details unknown

// When we asked about Apple Pay and Google Pay support, they told us that it is something they are looking into but it isn’t a main focus right now. The new digital bank wants to prioritise serving micro-SME and SME segments and to drive education and digital literacy. //

https://soyacincau.com/2024/06/06/boost-ban...card-july-2024/

they were forced to launch.

internally, they have issues too and they need to prioritize what can launch first (aka MVP or minimum viable product)

other features will come along later in the pipeline.

now, it's just diedie meeting bnm target to launch.

also integration with x-Pay takes resources to integrate. googlepay is zero setup fee. applepay, as usual, selective and stringent. there's some fees too.

it's not just a switch. there are 3rd party systems involved too. at least 2-3 parties to make the x-Pay work from end-to-end.

just received another android update push

maybe reupdate again....for the n-th time

correction, it was aeon bank update paisehhh

direct deduct from boost bank? or thru duitnow?

borned separately from different entity and regulations for different purpose.

what gives you the idea they are the same and must be integrated together??

it's just linking on surface like grab app vs gxbank

both funds cannot mingle/merge together even you have both boostbank $$ and boost wallet $$.


just cut/cancel boostbank lor. continue using boost wallet as it serves you more in terms of discounts/points.

other ppl are using boostbank for savings/other financial features.

can forget about boostbank debit card.

their BIN number not even registered yet. guess their issue with Mastercard not yet settled

adoi, use google can give you the results lor

you were just tricked by google SEO (and it worked!)

that link is sponsored link, paid by celcomdigi to lure you
