MAE is celebrating five years of helping Malaysians with everyday finances, be it budgeting, spending, or saving
The MAE app helps Malaysians to manage their money easily and securely, using decades-long banking technology.
Within the MAE app is the MAE Wallet, and having one allows users to separate their funds for spending from their savings yet manage it all in one app. A MAE Wallet limit can stretch up to RM10,000 so it can suit users with a range of budgets.
Built with the same robust security as any Maybank account, it ensures every transaction is safe, giving users confidence and peace of mind.
And the best part? MAE's turning five with some good treats. Starting 30 October, users can enjoy perks like 5% p.a. Returns on savings and cashback deals when they shop.
Here's a closer look at what's in store:
1. Earn 5% p.a. Returns with MAE Wallet until 31 January 2026
From now until 30 November 2025, transfer at least RM200 from other banks or eWallets into your MAE Wallet and include the phrase 'MAETurns5' in the Recipient Reference or equivalent field, and you will earn 5% p.a. Returns on your balance, provided that you maintain that transferred amount.
Transfers must be made during the deposit period (30 Oct – 30 Nov), but you will earn until 31 January 2026! Not a bad way to step into the new year.
Here are the steps illustrated:
There are 3 ways to maximise your returns:
- Transfer up to your maximum wallet balance of RM4,999 or RM10,000 if you have a MAE card.
- Transfer as early as possible to earn more daily returns.
- Still got extra funds? You can make a maximum of three transfers between 30 October to 30 November 2025.
2. Get up to RM15 cashback when you use Scan & Pay
Everyday spending can now earn you a little something back. Complete five QR payments (worth RM15 or more each), and you can receive up to RM15 cashback.
To join, simply tap 'Join Now' on the Tap, Track, Win section in your MAE app to take part. The offer runs from 1 November until 31 December 2025, so be sure to make the most of your daily spending.
Once you've opted in for 'Tap, Track, Win', your Scan & Pay transactions will be eligible for tracking!
3. Enjoy up to RM50 off when you check out with Maybank2u Online Banking
