It is very close to Chinese New Year and everyone is getting ready to balik kampung to visit their families and get that sweet, sweet angpao. Or if you have a more modern aunty, you might just get an e-Angpao.
Maybank, will be joining in the huat spirit by offering cashbacks and promotions to their users, and extending it to non-Maybank users as well, starting with…
1. Up to RM18 Cashback with QRPay and MAE from the Maybank App
Maybank’s ‘CNY Ho Yeah! With M2U oh Yeahhhh!’ campaign means you can get RM8 instant cashback with a minimum spend of RM38, and RM18 instant cashback with a minimum spend of RM88.
The full list of participating merchants can be found here, and it includes merchants such as Guardian, Ninjaz, GO Noodle House, Hush Puppies, and even Cold Storage.
Do note that to enjoy this you must activate Maybank QRPay on your Maybank App, and link it to your current, savings or MAE account. Debit and credit cards are not entitled to cashback.
Special bonus for Maybank users: if your Maybank QRPay is linked to your current or savings account, scanning and paying is really fast! Unlike other e-wallets, you don’t have to hog the queue lines topping up before paying.
2. Passing The Prosperity Ong
Maybank App’s e-Angpao feature is now back again, allowing you to send e-Angpaos to friends and relatives with relative ease.
This way, you don’t even have to buy physical angpao and you’ll be saving the trees too. Family members or friends who are overseas can also get angpao through Foreign Telegraphic Transfer or Western Union.
Better yet, you can join in the spirit of giving by donating through MaybankHeart where your donations can go to people in need.
3. Get More When You’re Giving
To make things a little more festive for CNY, Maybank App has updated their Jewel Rush game, giving you a chance to win some additional cash.
All you have to do is tap on the gold coins and avoid the firecrackers—it’s just that simple. After, you can cash out your winnings into MAE.
You’ll also get more chances to play the game when you:
- Donate at least RM5 to MaybankHeart
- Send at least an RM5 e-Angpao to your friends and family
- Tackle chores such as paying your bills or topping up your mobile phone plan via Maybank2u website and the Maybank App, all while on the go.
Here’s a short guide on what you’ll need to do to activate a MAE account:
