Transfer Overseas is a service on AmOnline whereby customers can remit or transfer money to beneficiaries around the world. You may also transfer to your children, relatives or friends that are studying, travelling, or living abroad, if they have an account to receive the funds.

All AmOnline users with MYR savings and/or current accounts can use this facility.

All Transfer Overseas requests performed in AmOnline will be processed immediately. However, depending on various factors like the process of recipient bank, security verification and public holidays or weekends, please expect 1 to 3 business days for recipient to receive the money.

• Minimum limit: RM250 (per transaction)
• Maximum limit: RM20,000 (per day)

Note: The maximum limit depends on the personal limit that you set for this transaction type. Go to AmOnline App > tap on “More” > tap on “Transaction Limit” > select “Transfers” > refer to “Overseas Account (eRemittance)” personal limit. You need to serve cooling-off period if you increase your transaction limit. Refer to “Transaction Limit” FAQ for more details.

Log in to AmOnline > Home > Transfer Overseas

If you just bind your AmOnline profile to a personal mobile device, you will need to serve pre-defined cooling-off. This is a security measure to temporarily restrict transactions via AmOnline. Full access will be restored automatically after the cooling-off period has ended. Refer to “Cooling-off Period” FAQ for more details.
