The default limit is the limit set for each transaction type when you first register for AmOnline.
4. What is a shared limit?
For IBG, DuitNow or QR transactions, the daily limit will be shared among the services. E.g. If you have performed IBG transactions of RM20,000 for the day, the remaining limit for DuitNow and QR will be RM30,000.
5. What is the Quick Payment limit?

Quick Payment Limit allows you to complete a transaction seamlessly and securely using biometric authentication (Face ID, Touch ID, or Fingerprint), up to the limit set by you and within the maximum limit prescribed by the Bank.

Note: This limit does not represent your total accumulated daily transfer limit. Your accumulated daily limit remains subject to the respective daily transaction limit set for DuitNow QR, DuitNow Transfer, Transfer within AmBank, and IBG Transfer.

6. What transactions can I use Quick Payment for?

Quick Payment is currently available for DuitNow QR, DuitNow Transfer, Transfer within AmBank, and IBG transactions. Additional transaction types may be included in the future.

7. What is the prerequisite to use Quick Payment?

To use the Quick Payment feature, you must first enable biometric option on your device and activate it via the Quick Access settings in the AmOnline App. Once activated, you can proceed with your transactions conveniently using Face ID, Touch ID, or Fingerprint.

Refer to “Quick Access” FAQ for the activation steps.

8. Can I update my Quick Payment limit?

Yes. You can set your Quick Payment limit through the AmOnline App, up to the maximum limit of RM1,000. 

9. How do I view or update my transaction limits?

To view or update the transaction limit, go to AmOnline App and follow below steps:

  1. Tap on “More” at the bottom menu
  2. Tap on “Transaction Limit” to view your personal limits for each transaction type
  3. Enter your preferred limit and save your changes
10. Can I update more than one limit at one time?

Yes, you can update multiple transaction types at one time. Simply tap edit on another transaction type after editing a particular transaction type.

11. What can I do if I need to transfer more than the daily limit?
For security reasons, you are only able to transfer up to the maximum amount set for the day. If there is a need to transfer a higher amount, kindly visit our branch to perform the transfer.
12. I have just registered for AmOnline. Why am I unable to change my transaction limit?
As part of security control, newly registered AmOnline customers are only allowed to perform transactions up to the pre-defined limit within the pre-defined period set by the bank.
13. I have just increased my transaction limit, why am I still unable to perform transaction with my new increased limit?
As part of security measure, for any increased transaction limit, you need to serve a 12-hour cooling-off period. Once the cooling-off period is over, you will get notified via push notification and email. Meanwhile you can still transact with your previous limit.
