Finally returned to Malaysia, so now can use AEON Bank. Just to check my maths.

Condition: I now have AEON Bank and GX Bank (no Rize).

The way I maximize my profit is:

1. AEON Bank: 47.17*21 = 990.57 (effective rate = 3.88*2 = 7.76% p.a.)

2. GX Bank: 61*11 = 671 (effective rate = 3*2 = 6% p.a.)

Then the leftover ones will go into AEON Bank again...

So now the AEON Bank effective rate will drop to 0.02/0.015*3.88 = 5.17% p.a. and the minimum amount to earn 0.02 cent interest (per pocket) will be 0.015*366/0.0388 = 141.49 MYR per pocket.

All I have to do is to bring up some of the original 21 pockets from 47.17 MYR to 141.49 MYR to gain some more "cents" though with a reduced effective interest, assuming I don't wanna bother with Rize or other products.

Hope my maths are all correct. Thanks for checking. tongue.gif

aeon bank pocket trick wont work i think.

cause they only round up the sum at the end of the month. so only 1 time rounded up, and not daily.

but if you want to try also no harm.

Ah ok. So the recommended way for putting money in AEON would be the 47.17*21? (That one rounds up from 0.005 to 0.01)

I am betting that the round up every day and deposit only at the end of the month (i.e,, they withhold the interest temporarily only)

Anyone works at back office of AEON Bank can give tipsy? tongue.gif laugh.gif

that was the theory. but someone else posted that they received 3 cents for 6 days. instead of 1 cent/day.

that's why i said they only apply the round up/down during the interest payout. Since its not daily rounding, it doesn't work.

but you can try also, no harm. Can only really confirm it next month 1st July. If it doesnt work then you are still getting same interest as the whole amount put without any pocket. So no loss.

i myself am doing 20 pockets of it, and rest of balance in main account.

Boleh boleh. Thanks guys. So I will do 20*47.17 + the rest in AEON Bank main account then.

My opinion for licensed Digital Bank

GX > AEON > Boost
*
Same impression too from a user's experience.

But interest rate wise AEON > GX...

No plans to use Boost for now.

Profit Info

Boost Bank - 4% Jar/3.6% p.a.
AEON Bank - 3.88% p.a.
Rize - 3.8% p.a.
GX Bank - 3.0% p.a.
Be U by Bank Islam - 2.65% p.a. (new)

Just to check for Be U Qard Savings Account-i, interests are paid daily or once a month?

The terms and conditions don't specify the hibah crediting frequency...

It only pay at the end of month selected to include so it's like jar but withdraw not allowed. Just version of digital bank lomg term saving. You can save minimum RM 1000 for 1 month or RM500 for 2 months.

Err you are referring to the Be U Term Deposit-i right? That's like FD, the rates are also stated already: https://getbeu.com/product/Be-U-Term-Deposit-i

My question earlier refers to the QSA-i: https://getbeu.com/product/Be-U-QSA

According to QSA's terms and conditions they do pay interests, but they don't show the rates nor the frequency of crediting: https://media.getbeu.com/QSA_tnc_0c31e59ddb.pdf

Do you know the QSA-i saving rates/crediting frequency?

If rates are low like 2.5-3% p.a. but credited daily then we can use the GX bank round-up trick to double the effective rate.

Hence my question. tongue.gif

I don't think I get any interest from Be U since I saved my money on there previously like more than RM500.

Oh so Be U QSA-i have no interest, it's just the islamic FDs that have interests. Got it! thumbsup.gif

The share of AEON Bank’s losses absorbed by AEON Credit stood at RM11.6 million in 1QFY2025, which is short of AEON Credit management’s RM60 million to RM70 million guidance for the full year. Hence, losses are expected to widen in subsequent quarters. The bank is expected to break even within five years.

Isn't this the last week for their promo rate and no update for rates next month? Most banks FD rate about 3.6% so I'm guessing they will follow too.

Patience!

Malaysians like to do things last minute biggrin.gif

I am keeping a close eye on the promotions as well...

Finally, Rize in the making. December 2023 all over again.

GX Bank steady eh. Now we can understand why AEON pays 80 basis points per annum more than GX.

Because you have to deal with all this uncertainty...

Tried transferring money to Rize, all ok. No problems, no delay, no 12-hr cooling period.

Done on Android phone.
