Tips to Stretch Your Ringgit Using Boost Stars

This article is a year old

If you are unfamiliar with Boost Stars, it is the loyalty points you earn with every ringgit spent on Boost through its all-in-one fintech app. Upon a successful transaction, (excluding add money, send money, request money, zakat payment and transfer out), you will be given Boost Stars. It is considered as good as cash as it functions as a form of “currency” you can use across many different features on the Boost app, especially under the BoostUP Loyalty Programme.

You might have accumulated a fair bit of Boost Stars but not sure how to use it? Here are four simple ways you can make full use of your Boost Stars:

1. Pick & Win
Try out this gamified lucky draw where you can invest your Boost Stars for a chance to win exclusive prizes, premium gadgets, and more. The best part is that the prizes are refreshed monthly. Winners are announced monthly too.

2. BoostUP Rewards Catalogue
If you’re a person who prefers a sure win, check out the BoostUP Rewards Catalogue instead. There are plenty of items that you can redeem using your Boost Stars.

From free gifts to useful everyday tools, discount vouchers and Partner Wallet credits, there is something for everyone, so be sure to check it out.

3. BoostUP FlexiRedeem
Have your eye on an item but don’t have enough Boost Stars? There’s a new way you can redeem rewards with the BoostUP FlexiRedeem. This means that it combines both Boost Stars and money for you to obtain the items of your choice.  

After selecting an item, you can redeem using FlexiRedeem. The higher amount of Boost Stars, the less money is needed.

4. Pay with Stars
To all Boost users who are savvy savers, when you pay your bills with BoostBills, you can also use your Boost Stars to offset part of your bill payment cost.

There are different redemption amounts for you to choose from to convert your Boost Stars into direct cash discounts upon checkout. This is a nifty feature to give you more savings regularly or if you are just a couple ringgit short.

Tip: Top up through online banking to double the Boost Stars you earn!
