JAKARTA - PT Bank Bank Mega Tbk (MEGA) continues to boost the collection of low-cost funds through a savings program with prizes for the company's customers while at the same time encouraging people to like to save.

The bank, which belongs to the conglomerate Chairul Tanjung, launched the "Meriah Bareng Mega" savings program which offers lottery prizes and also rewards points or "doreme points" that can be used for shopping at CT Corp merchants in collaboration with the company.

"We hope that this program can encourage public interest, both loyal customers of Bank Mega and new customers of Bank Mega to be more fond of saving to plan their future better", said Director of Consumer Diza Larentie in a statement in Jakarta, quoted from Antara, Thursday 17 June.

In the first quarter of 2021, Bank Mega's Third Party Funds (DPK) reached IDR 78.5 trillion. In composition, the ratio of low-cost funds or CASA of Bank Mega in March 2021 currently reaches 31 percent, improving compared to the end of 2020 which was 28 percent.

This year, Bank Mega's DPK is targeted to grow by 8 percent or to IDR 85.5 trillion.

Diza continued, the savings program is intended for Mega Dana and Mega Maxi savings customers who are drawn every month during the period from June 17 to December 16, 2021.

All customers can participate in this program only by having a Mega Dana or Mega Maxi savings product and being registered in the M-Smile mobile banking application.

He said, starting with a minimum monthly average balance of IDR 5 million, customers will get one lottery point (multiples apply). In addition, for every additional savings balance per multiple of IDR 1 million, customers will also get one more draw point.

"Customers can also get bonus lottery points by making financial transactions on the M-Smile mobile banking application. In the midst of the ongoing pandemic, through the M-Smile application, customers can carry out all banking activities in their hands", said Diza.

Meanwhile, for new customers who do not have Mega Dana savings, continued Diza, customers can open a Mega Dana savings account directly through M-Smile so that customers can directly participate in the program.
