Multi-Currency e-Pay (or MCEP), is a one-stop investment payment service that allows you to pay for SGD, HKD, USD, EUR, GBP and JPY denominated stocks through a single platform - Maybank Trade Online. Eliminate the need for foreign currency conversion when you link your Maybank Trade account to a Maybank account that holds the same currency your stock is denominated in. Furthermore, get speedier payouts with no hidden costs or service charges to maximise your potential yield and make the most of trading opportunities.
- One Efficient Platform
With this convenient and seamless service on Maybank Trade, there will no longer be a need to log into a separate internet banking account to pay for stocks. In addition, sales proceeds will be credited to your designated Maybank accounts right on due date, which translates to quicker access to funds. - Eliminate the Need for Foreign Currency Conversion
Your Maybank Trade account will be linked to a Maybank account which holds the currency that your stock is denominated in. This allows you to tap directly on the account when you pay and thus eliminates the need for foreign currency conversion which may impact your yield. - No Hidden Costs or Service Charges
Unlike other modes of foreign currency payment like Telegraphic Transfers (TT) or foreign currency cheque issuances where a service charge is typically imposed, there are no service charges imposed when you make payment via Multi-Currency e-Pay. - Preferential Interest Rates
Enjoy preferential interest rates and fee waivers for your Maybank SGD, HKD, USD, EUR, GBP and JPY banking accounts. Click here for more details. - Option to Set a Backup Account
Multi-Currency e-Pay allows you to set a secondary account as a backup to your primary account for the deduction of share payments, should your primary account have insufficient funds. This will thus prevent the force selling of shares due to non-payment.
