New to Multiplier.
May I check, for Multiplier, is it so that the Bonus Interest will be credited by 7th of the month or is it 7th working day of the month?

Because last month, the BI was in on the 7-Oct itself.

Thanks.

Preferential Interest is always on the 7th if it's a working day.

Taken from DBS website: "Interest will be credited in 2 parts: (i) base interest at our prevailing base interest rate calculated on daily balances will be credited at month end, and (ii) the remaining preferential interest, calculated as the nett of the higher interest rate and the prevailing base interest rate, based on the sum of your eligible transactions with us, by the 7th working day of the following month."

For those that enrolled in the new to treasures promo, did u receive the 4.5% on 200K interest, or just the standard multiplier 4.1% on 100k?

Would like to check if there is anyone open the multiplier account recently and participating in the promotion: "Open a Multiplier account and get up to 2.5% p.a. on your first S$100,000 from 1 Sep till 31 Dec 2025" ?

The Preferential Interest received on 7-Nov seems to be only for the 1st 50K... (assume Income + 1 categroy)

So I presume there should be another payout before end of Nov for the balance interest for the next 50K (Assume putting 100K in multiplier).
Anyone has experience in this? and any idea when will be the subsequent payout?

Quoted example from DBS website.
so the bonus should be credited at end of Nov for Oct


Jack has a total eligible transaction of S$4,000 monthly. As part of the promotion, he earns interest of 2.10% p.a. instead of 1.80% p.a. on his first S$100,000 savings in his Multiplier account.

The interest is credited to him in 3 parts:
Last calendar day0.05% p.a. base interest on Multiplier Account’s SGD balance
7th working day of following month1.75% p.a. bonus interest on the first S$50,000
By the end of following month0.30% p.a. bonus interest on the first S$50,000 as well as 2.05% p.a. on the next S$50,000

Thanks for sharing the information.

The promotion is from Sep to Dec.
So is there anyone who have experience in this during October month?
I mean anyone has gotten the 3rd part of the Interest in October (for the month of Sep)? If yes, when was it being distributed?
