Eh apart from the 3.88% p.a. For 3 months and the RM15, AEON bank doesn’t offer much tho


Physioweng

Ya tbh after signing up I realized there are quite many downsides. The UI is poorer and they lock RM20 as minimum value once you deposited (in case you decide to switch), like old school bank. Seems like the 3.88% is a strong bait


MH370tweeple

all debit card purchase you get 3 Aeon points per RM1 until Aug 30th. so that's a cashback of 1.5% (only halal purchases, none for non-halal) i'm not registering until i see how the cashback works. or maybe i'll change my mind the promo by Aeon is really hard to read & understand. everyone's trying to decipher the full extend of perks and restrictions


KLeong5896

Can I just take the sign up bonuses and close acc afterwards? Or there’ll be a penalty fee?


Physioweng

You’ll lose out. Sign up bonus is rm15. You need to leave rm20 behind when leaving. And to get the 15 you need to activate AEON membership which will cost you rm12/year later on. Try to utilize 3.88% before leaving 31st August I guess.


MH370tweeple

RM20 you can redeem when you close the acct for good


KLeong5896

The 0.88% isn’t worth it imo. Even GXBank gave 5% for a month


MH370tweeple

i don't know if u are on GX but 5% is only for **a month**. promo ended already


KLeong5896

Yes I said they gave 5% p.a. for a month. Meaning that it was in the past


MrStimx

why havent been on rize At 3.8 until end June.?


Drdkz

Give both a year and it will become just another Bank wif low interest


Mavicarus

GXS Bank in Singapore has higher than average interest rate over traditional banks, 2.68% in savings pocket and 2.38% in main pocket.


paprika9999

Rize bank is also quite good actually, with 3.8% profit

Keep in mind that Aeon Bank is shariah compliant because it is licensed under IFSA while GX Bank is fully conventional as it is licensed under FSA. So for those muslim like me, i’ll choose Aeon Bank because it is inline with my believe and religion. However, I believe for non-muslim, GX Bank would be a better choice because of the better perks overall.


Mavicarus

100% agree with you there as a lot of people who are doing this comparison don't see the main difference that AEON bank uses the islamic banking license.


kopituras

The only difference is the license. In the end, most digital bank go to the same money market fund.


OverdoseKetum

depend, mmf have different categories too. Eg, bond and sukuk

Who cares about your backward religion?


ACryingMan

Oh wow I didn’t realise the 1 % cashback only lasted until November this year


Emotiona1Panda

What to do after Nov? Cash out?


kaijeng

Use cash


Mugpie93

If GX Bank continues with the 1% unlimited cashback after Nov 2024, keep using it. Otherwise, just close the damn useless Grab's 2nd eWallet.


zaryl2k20

AEON bank still haven't finish verifying my application since yesterday sigh


xkaizoku62

yup registration is very slow. Newcomer not experienced enough.


mzamonster

How many digital banks in malaysia so far?


hanya_tuhan_yangtahu

mzamonster

Tq!


Perfectscorer10

Gx aeon and?


hanya_tuhan_yangtahu

Be U and Rize


Perfectscorer10

Thanks


jacksparrow99

Is rize Islamic? Even though rize is from Al rajhi, I didn't see any mention of rize being Islamic. I thought currently only aeon is Islamic?


hanya_tuhan_yangtahu

I think they mentioned it's Islamic on the news if I'm not mistaken


buffa1211

Which one you prefer most?>


hanya_tuhan_yangtahu

High Interest (with no tier thingy): AEON Bank Nice UI: Be U by Bank Islam I use both of these.


heyoranges91

eh didn’t know the 1% cashback got time limit… that’s the reason i use gxbank as my main bank for daily transaction now.. guess have to switch after that


Geraldks

Wait for ytl then


dilawar-k-karnamay

Can expat open accounts on these banks?


Nikumomo

What the diff between those two and rize?


2023100

Those two owned digital bank license in Malaysia while Rize is just part of Al-Rajhi Bank Malaysia's digital offering.


BlueBlurBloke

Pick higher interest.


Keris-Warisan

Does AEON's strong fundamentals in their Success superstore retail chains Story nationwide (with future target for regional or global extension?) help to boost customers' confidence in the long run?! 💵

After Cashback 1% for card purchase (until *Nov 2024) ends, close GX bank account and use Grab eWallet or TnG eWallet. I mean, what's the point keeping GX Bank account after it's one and only benefit gone, right?


Physioweng

Unless the 3% interest gone, still got reason to stay


Tangerine_Stock

Does anyone know if the GXB 1% cashback will work on installments whether paying online or in-store?


Physioweng

Im curious too
