Been a user since sept 2020 and am glad that the interest rate still remain at 2% with no changes in policy. Its a good place to park money and not withdraw in this low interest enviornment unless there is a need to or if other services provide better interest rate.0

Applied for this for myself and my wife. The app is very engaging, though to track the balance, one has to use the Tiq by Etiqa app.0

[User Experience] [Interest Rate] [Withdrawal Process] Surrendered the policy as the 0.7% pa is comparably low under the current savings climate. Have to maneuver around the app should one wishes to surrender policy with full withdrawal. Otherwise, partial withdrawal is still pretty visible. The funds were deposited into the designated bank account almost instantly.0

A good 2% P.A interest credited monthly for the first year. Transfers are also processed right away. Moving on to other companies after the first year, since 0.7% PA, meh...0

Easy to set up and decent yield of 2 percent for first year. A pity the yield will have to drop partly due to low interest environment. Hope will have better offer soon. thank u0

How Does GIGANTIQ Work?
By magic. LOL. JK.
GIGANTIQ is a single premium, yearly renewable, universal life plan.
It's a financial product that is a combination of a regular savings plan, insurance protection, and a traditional bank account.
The rate of returns aren't as great as what you'd get with high-interest bank savings accounts, but in this low-interest rate environment... a guaranteed 0.7% p.a. rate of return is pretty decent, no?
What Is the Highest Interest Rates for GIGANTIQ?
GIGANTIQ's rate of returns are pretty straightforward.
Effective from 1 August 2021 (inclusive) or your first policy anniversary date, whichever is later, the current crediting rate will be revised from 1.0% p.a. to 0.70% p.a.
For the first $10,000 during your first policy year, you'll earn the guaranteed 0.7% p.a. + a bonus 0.8% p.a. rate of return (1.5% p.a.).
Any other amount you put into your GIGANTIQ will just earn the guaranteed 0.7% p.a. rate of return.
If you want to increase your rate of return... just make more top-ups into your GIGANTIQ account.
The maximum amount which you can put into your GIGANTIQ account is $200,000.
But wait!
Before you throw all of your money into your GIGANTIQ account, take note that transactions fees will be charged for each partial withdrawal:
- via PayNow: $0.70 per transaction
- via Direct Credit (DBS or POSB): $0.50 per transaction
You'll also have to keep at least $50 in your GIGANTIQ account at ALL TIMES because if you don't, your policy will be de-activated if your average daily account value for the calendar month falls below $50.
An additional perk — that has yet to be released — is that you can earn up to 0.25% p.a. extra rate of return on the first $10,000 if you buy selected life or general insurance products which are offered as a supplementary rider under GIGANTIQ.
How Much Insurance Coverage Do I Get With GIGANTIQ?
If you suay suay die while your policy is still in effect, Etiqa will pay you 105% of your account value after subtracting whatever amount you owe them.
They will also pay out 105% of your account value when the policy matures immediately before you turn 100 years old.
Congratulations on turning 100, by the way!
