How different is this online account from a normal fixed deposit?
Quite a few actually, and all for your added convenience:
- Account creation can be done with Maybank2u and processed by the branch the following working day.
- You won't be given a certificate, but will be given an 8-digit reference number ending with 'E' instead.
- Placement can be made by debiting cash from your linked account to Maybank2u.com.
Can I withdraw from this fixed deposit before maturity and get some interest?
You are allowed to make an immediate withdrawal of your fixed deposit prior to maturity, subject to Maybank's Terms and Conditions.

Unless you have submitted the 31 days notice period at the branch, your fixed deposit will earn 50% of the contracted interest rate.

You will have to be an existing Maybank account holder as a joint account holder or sole proprietor.
What is the minimum deposit of Maybank eFixed Deposit?
For a 1-month placement, you will need at least RM5,000. For 2 months and above, you will need a lower amount, which is RM1,000.
