Multi-Currency e-Pay is a convenient and seamless one-stop payment service that allows you to
trade and pay in SGD, HKD, USD, EUR, GBP and JPY. You do away with 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. There are no hidden costs or service charges and you even
get to enjoy preferential interest rates and fee waivers for your linked bank accounts.
To make it even more attractive, you enjoy quicker access to funds as sale proceeds will be
credited to your designated Maybank accounts directly on due date.
Multi-Currency e-Pay works by linking your Maybank Trade account with 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.
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.

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 forced selling of shares due to non-payment.
