Bonus Interest

How to earn more interest?


Effective 1st January 2023, new Yippie accountholders will be entitled to an additional bonus interest of 0.10% p.a for up to 12 months from account opening (OR 2 cycles of interest payment i.e. 30th June & 31st December).

To be eligible, customer must grow a minimum Average Daily Balance (ADB) of RM1,000 during each 6-month interest payment cycle, i.e from 1st January to 30th June, and from 1st July to 31st December, depending on account open date.

Bonus interest is paid up to a maximum of RM30,000 ADB growth.

 

How to calculate Bonus Interest?

Example

Customer opens new Yippie account on 25.09.2023. If eligibility criteria is met, customer will be entitled to additional bonus interest from 25.09.2023 to 31.12.2023 on 1st cycle and from 01.01.2024 to 30.06.2024 on 2nd cycle. Thereafter, there will be no more entitlement for Bonus Interest.

Customer A opens a Yippie account on 25.09.2023. Customer A registered ADB growth of RM12,000 by 31.12.2023 after minus baseline (zero)

Cycle 1 = 0.10% x RM12,000 x 98 (25.09.23 - 31.12.23) /365

= RM3.22

 

Customer A continues to register ADB growth of RM18,000 between the period of 01.01.2024 to 30.06.2024 after minus baseline (i.e. ADB registered in the previous cycle)

Cycle 2 = 0.10% x RM18,000 x 182 (01.01.24 - 30.06.24) /366

= RM8.95

Thereafter, customer A is no longer entitled to any bonus interest

Bonus interest will cease should the new Yippie accountholder reach the age of 18 years old during the entitlement period.
