What is the AmBank AmPartner Current Account?
The AmPartner Current Account is AmBank's everyday banking account built around BonusLink, one of Malaysia's largest loyalty programmes. Every Ringgit in the account earns interest, and every RM100 you maintain each month also earns BonusLink Points on top of that.
How much interest does the AmPartner Account pay?
The AmPartner Current Account pays 0.25% p.a. interest on your full balance, no matter how much money you keep in the account.
How do you earn BonusLink Points with this account?
You earn 5x BonusLink Points for every RM100 you keep in the account, as long as your monthly average balance stays at RM500 or higher.
BonusLink is a loyalty programme used at petrol stations, supermarkets, and other retail partners across Malaysia. Link your BonusLink membership to your AmPartner account through the AmOnline app, and you can also convert your BonusLink Points back into cash, and AmBank will pay this directly into your account.
Who can open an AmPartner Current Account?
Anyone aged 18 and above can open the account with as little as RM20. The RM500 average monthly balance only applies if you want to earn BonusLink Points; it isn't a general condition for keeping the account open.
Is your money protected?
Yes. AmBank is a member of PIDM, so your AmPartner Current Account is protected up to RM250,000 per depositor. This covers your principal and any interest earned, in the unlikely event AmBank is unable to repay depositors.
How do I apply for an AmPartner Current Account?
You can open an account through the AmOnline app by completing the online application and verifying your identity. The whole process happens on your phone, so you don't need to visit a branch.
