the original loan sum is repaid; the interest per month reduces progressively across the tenure of the
loan.
The minimum Citi Quick Cash amount is RM1,000 and the maximum amount will be subject to your
available credit limit and Citibank’s discretion.

monthly reducing balance repayment method. For the avoidance of doubt, prior to 1 st Dec 2019, for
Citi Quick Cash with effective interest rate of more than 0%, the first month’s interest will be calculated
based on the effective interest rate and pro-rated on a 360 days basis from the approval date to the
next immediate statement cycle date and will be reflected (together with any fees or charges) in the
next immediate monthly statement. Starting from 1st Dec 2019, the first month’s interest will be
calculated based on the effective interest rate and pro-rated on a 365 days and on a 366 days basis in
a leap year from the approval date to the next immediate statement cycle date and will be reflected
(together with any fees or charges) in the next immediate monthly statement.
The subsequent monthly instalment calculation remains the same where it shall be a fixed amount and
consists of both principal and interest where the interest component of each monthly instalment is
computed by: Effective interest rate x outstanding principal amount ÷ 12 [months].
For Citi Quick Cash with effective interest rate of 0%, there will be no interest component in the monthly
repayment. The principal repayment will commenced in the next immediate monthly statement.
The Citi Quick Cash monthly instalment amount is fixed. Any pre-payment or excess payment will not
reduce the Outstanding Principal or the subsequent Citi Quick Cash monthly instalment and will only be
treated by the Bank as advance payment.
You will not be entitled to any reward points and/or cash rebates from the Citi Quick Cash.
