Kuala Lumpur, 17 October 2025 — Rakuten Trade Sdn Bhd (“Rakuten Trade”), Malaysia’s first fully digital equities broker, has unveiled its Share Transfer-In & Trade Campaign 2025, offering investors an attractive mix of Apple (AAPL) share rewards and RT Points for transferring and trading shares via its platform. The campaign runs from 1 October to 31 December 2025, underscoring Rakuten Trade’s commitment to making investing both rewarding and accessible for Malaysians.
Empowering Investors with Dual Rewards
Through this campaign, both new and existing Rakuten Trade clients who transfer in their existing shares and execute trades during the campaign period stand to earn tiered rewards based on the lower value of their cumulative share transfers or cumulative trades.
The incentive structure is straightforward and generous, with Apple shares as the standout highlight:
| Cumulative Transfer-In & Traded Value | Rewards |
|---|---|
| ≥ RM5,000 | 10,000 RT Points |
| ≥ RM10,000 | 10,000 RT Points + RM300 AAPL shares |
| ≥ RM100,000 | 10,000 RT Points + RM500 AAPL shares |
| ≥ RM250,000 | 20,000 RT Points + RM800 AAPL shares |
| ≥ RM500,000 | 100,000 RT Points + RM1,000 AAPL shares |
By rewarding both local and global market participation, Rakuten Trade encourages investors to diversify their portfolios, from Bursa Malaysia counters to U.S. and Hong Kong markets, while enjoying tangible incentives in the form of U.S. tech equities.
How the Campaign Works
All eligible Rakuten Trade account holders — whether Cash Upfront, Contra, or RakuMargin — are automatically enrolled. To qualify for the reward tiers, participants must successfully transfer their shares into a Rakuten Trade account and execute buy or sell trades within the campaign period.
Rewards are distributed in two forms:
- RT Points, which can be used to offset brokerage fees, are credited progressively every month (November 2025, December 2025, and January 2026 depending on trade month).
- AAPL Shares, the campaign’s global highlight, will be credited in January 2026 based on Apple Inc.’s closing price on 8 January 2026 and converted to Malaysian Ringgit using prevailing exchange rates.
Participants must hold an active Rakuten Trade Foreign Account within 30 days after the campaign ends to receive their Apple share entitlement.
Reward Example
For instance, an investor who transfers and trades RM6,000 in October 2025 will receive 10,000 RT Points in November. If they subsequently increase their cumulative value to RM266,000 in November, they will automatically qualify for Tier 4, receiving an incremental 10,000 RT Points and RM800 worth of Apple shares in the next fulfilment cycle.
Encouraging Long-Term Investment Discipline
Rakuten Trade’s Share Transfer-In & Trade Campaign is designed not only to attract active traders but also to help retail investors consolidate their portfolios into a single, digital-first platform. The ability to earn both brokerage credits and fractional Apple shares offers a unique value proposition for those exploring foreign markets and cross-border investing.
The campaign also aligns with Rakuten Trade’s broader mission to democratize investing through accessible online tools, competitive brokerage rates, and reward-based trading. Investors can trade seamlessly across Bursa Malaysia, NYSE, NASDAQ, and Hong Kong Exchange, all through a single sign-on.
Campaign Period and Terms
The campaign runs from 1 October to 31 December 2025, with rewards credited progressively through to January 2026.
Rakuten Trade reserves the right to amend or suspend the campaign terms at its discretion, and participants agree to be bound by the full Terms & Conditions.
