OCBC Al-Amin OCBC 360 Account-i
Islamic Bank Accounts in Kelantan
Behaviour-based Islamic savings account from OCBC Al-Amin: base profit 0.10% p.a., rising to an effective 1.10% p.a. for depositing RM500/month, 2.05% for also paying 3 bills online, and 3.00% p.a. for also spending RM500 on the debit card-i - bonuses capped at RM100,000 balance.
The strongest everyday-money proposition in this cluster: 3.00% effective with PIDM cover for behaviour most households already exhibit. OCBC Al-Amin discloses the mechanics to the day. Its weakness is the cliff - inactive months pay 0.10% - so pair it with disciplined salary routing. Crawled 6 Aug 2026.

Our Take on OCBC Al-Amin
The everyday-money winner: no other account in this cluster pays 3.00% effective with PIDM cover for normal salary behaviour. Manarat-i's stamp-duty waiver makes OCBC Al-Amin the default quote for conventional-mortgage refinancers.
How OCBC Al-Amin Works
Route your salary
Deposit RM500+ monthly to unlock the first 360 pillar; add three online bill payments and RM500 debit spend for the full 3.00%.
Mind the RM100,000 cap
Bonus profit stops above RM100,000 average daily balance - move excess to the FD-i (2.10%).
Refinance with the waiver
Bring a conventional mortgage to Manarat-i and the stamp duty on refinanced principal is 100% waived.
Open in the app
360 Account-i opens via the OCBC Malaysia app with MyKad eKYC and RM20 minimum funding.
Financing Structure
Financing runs on Commodity Murabahah (Tawarruq); the 360 Account-i pays behaviour-conditional profit under its PDS contract with mechanics disclosed on-page. As a locally incorporated Islamic bank, all OCBC Al-Amin products are Shariah-governed end to end.
In-Depth Analysis
OCBC Al-Amin Bank Berhad (200801017151), incorporated 2008, is OCBC's separate Malaysian Islamic bank. Its flagship consumer product is the 360 Account-i, a behaviour-based savings account: a 0.10% base effective rate on the whole balance, rising through 1.10% (deposit RM500+/month), 2.05% (also pay three bills online) to 3.00% p.a. (also spend RM500 on the debit card-i), with bonus profit capped at RM100,000 average daily balance and paid by the 14th business day of the following month. The mechanics, caps and dates are all published with a calculator. For a household routing salary through the account, this is the highest PIDM-protected everyday yield in the cluster. Crawled 6 Aug 2026.
Manarat-i, the home financing product, is a Commodity Murabahah (Tawarruq) facility with tenure to 35 years or age 70 and daily-rest calculation. Its defining feature is the refinance incentive: 100% stamp duty waived on principal refinanced from a conventional term loan, alongside no early-settlement penalty, no compounding and no processing fees. For Malaysians wanting to move an existing riba-based mortgage into Islamic financing, this directly attacks the main switching cost. Non-residents are eligible subject to country of origin.
The Fixed Deposit-i grid (1.85%-2.10%, effective 1 January 2026) is published on the Islamic rates page. Governance disclosure is solid: committee chairman Dr. Khairul Anuar Ahmad and five members are profiled, including scholars with prior roles at Affin Islamic, Deutsche Bank and academia.

How OCBC Al-Amin Compares
The 360 Account-i outearns every board-rate TD in this cluster for active users; AEON's 3.00% promo pots are the passive alternative. On mortgages, HSBC's HomeSmart-i publishes its rate (4.50% effective) while OCBC publishes its waiver - refinancers should quote both.
Printed mortgage formula and offset mechanics versus OCBC's waiver-led refinance pitch.
3.00% promo without behaviour pillars, but app-only and promo-dependent.
Cashback-led spending account versus OCBC's profit-led saver.
Bottom Line
Make OCBC Al-Amin your salary bank for the 3.00% effective 360 rate, and your first quote when moving a conventional mortgage to Islamic financing.
