DuitNow Overseas Transfer

Effective 7 April 2025, we have increased the combined daily limits for Foreign Telegraphic Transfer (FTT), Maybank Overseas Transfer (MOT), Bakong Transfer* and DuitNow Overseas Transfer*. This means, you will be able to send larger amounts of funds conveniently.

*Please note that the sub-limit for Bakong Transfer and DuitNow Overseas Transfer’s are still maintained at RM10,000 and RM3,000 daily, respectively.

Kindly note that once you increase your limit, a 12-hour cooling-off period will apply before the new limit can take effect. During this time, you can only make overseas transfers up to your current limit. Rest assured that you will be notified via push notification or SMS on when the period starts and ends. For more information on how to increase transfer limits, click here.

Please ensure your MAE app is updated via the App Store, Google Play or Huawei AppGallery to enjoy your new limits. Avoid downloading APK files from unofficial sources to protect your device from malware. Learn more about the MAE app here.
