Mobile banking has increasingly become an inseparable part of our daily lives.
THE Covid-19 pandemic has led to changes across all areas of life, from social interaction to how daily banking is conducted.
Consumer demand is moving towards having real-time direct control over their wealth, with access to a wide variety of banking services available at their fingertips and in the comfort of their own homes.
Beyond that, with wealth management becoming a bigger priority for a large segment of customers today in the interests of growing their wealth, customers also expect a diverse range of investment portfolios that they can choose digitally.
To meet these needs, banks have been investing heavily in improving the digital banking experience. Among them is CIMB Clicks, the versatile all-in-one banking platform that is familiar to a large number of Malaysians, where users can conveniently perform their daily banking needs with ease and access CIMB banking products.
CIMB has been augmenting CIMB Clicks on three fronts – stability and security, user experience as well as functionalities to ease daily banking and meet the rising needs.
Here are a few new things you should know:
Higher foreign transfer limit up to RM50,000 and wider transfer purpose
Need to pay for children’s school fees or pay for properties overseas?
Foreign fund transfer can be a daunting task, where security and high charges are often top of mind for customers.

> Enhancements in the CIMB Clicks app
For a more seamless experience, CIMB recently added the SecureTAC approval service button in the CIMB Clicks App. Simply open the app, swipe left and tap on the SecureTAC button to approve your transactions in a fast and secure manner.
The SecureTAC feature protects CIMB Clicks users against unauthorised transactions, especially high-value transactions above RM10,000, as approval via a pre-registered trusted device is required.
