The new MAE mobile app provides an ecosystem for Malaysians to better manage their everyday money matters.<\/strong><\/h3> \n

One of the biggest challenges we face when it comes down to money management is finding one platform that helps you navigate through all your financial needs.<\/p> \n

But the newly launched MAE by Maybank2u app could be the big game changer.<\/p> \n

With its new features, users get to take charge of their own financial health by having all their financial needs parked under one platform to get a single, holistic view of everything spent across accounts, cards, and QR transactions.<\/p> \n

Speaking at the virtual launch, Maybank<\/a> Group President and CEO Datuk Abdul Farid Alias said the bank expects to attract three million users to its newly-launched MAE by Maybank2u app in 12 months\u2019 time. Judging by the numbers, it\u2019s definitely possible. So far, it has a total of 10 million registered users on Maybank2u, while its MAE e-wallet has 1.8 million users.<\/p> \n

The long-term goal, Abdul Farid said, is for all 10 million Maybank2u users to migrate to the new MAE by Maybank2u app, with an additional two million new users to come on board.<\/p> \n

But what is the MAE by Maybank2u app and why is it so great?<\/h2> \n

At first glance, you\u2019ll notice that the name of this new app is a combination of two things: the Maybank MAE e-wallet and the online banking Maybank2u app. So, is it a combination of their online banking and e-wallet platforms<\/a>? Pretty much.<\/p> \n

The new app essentially marries the two comprehensive apps into one all-encompassing app, which from a customer\u2019s perspective is great because that means you can conduct all banking transactions in one platform.<\/p> \n

What are some of the features in the MAE by Maybank2u app?<\/h2> \n

The new app includes features such as expense tracking (called Expense), individual and group goal-based saving (called Tabung) and dining recommendations (called Makan Mana).<\/p> \n

Banking features on Maybank2u can be used alongside MAE (Maybank\u2019s ewallet) features in this new app<\/em><\/p> \n

Other basic transactions that were available on Maybank2u such as bill payments and fund transfers can also be accessed through the new app for existing Maybank customers.<\/p> \n

The process of saving money could be easier if done with loved ones <\/em><\/p> \n

The group saving feature, according to Maybank, is the first of its kind by a Malaysian bank, allowing customers to jointly save with friends or loved ones towards a goal such as an annual vacation. In a sense, the app also allows you to hold loved ones more accountable, financially, for that much desired vacay in Bali, for example.<\/p> \n

If you\u2019re the type that needs a little push when it comes to savings, then this app could be great for you. Instead of saving alone, now you get to save up with family and friends, and hold each other accountable on your financial journey.<\/p> \n

Perhaps with this new app, deciding where to eat won\u2019t be much of a problem anymore<\/em><\/p> \n

Let\u2019s face it, deciding where to eat has always, and might continue to be, a common problem that all of us face. But the new MAE by Maybank2u app aims to put this dilemma away with their new Makan Mana feature.<\/p> \n

And if having a set variety of options isn\u2019t enough for you, then spin the Makan Mana Wheel and it will decide fate for you! This dining recommendation feature aims to help Maybank customers find out the best dining options while enjoying promotions from thousands of its partner merchants all across the country.<\/p> \n

And finally, to help accelerate the saving process, the new Maybank app is also equipped with new complementary features called Boosters which allows micro-spending \u201cmoments\u201d to be transformed into savings.<\/p> \n

Here\u2019s a quick summary of what each of these boosters are:<\/p> \n
