The movement control order (MCO) stops us from visiting relatives this year, but it doesn't prevent you from sending Ang Pows. Yesterday, Maybank announced that you can send them via its MAE app. Today, Boost confirmed that its app will let you do the same.

Boost has enabled the e-Ang Pow feature for its e-Wallet app, allowing you to send them to your relatives even during MCO. You get to choose from 1 of 6 e-Ang Pow packet designs and can include a personal message before sending the Ang Pow. On top of that, you can designate up to 10 recipients to receive different amounts of e-Ang Pow money.

Note that basic Boost users can only receive e-Ang Pows. To send them, you will have to be a premium user. Also, you need to open the e-Ang Pow within 12 hours of receiving it or it is returned to the sender. Besides e-Ang Pows, you can also send e-donations this Chinese New Year. The app will allow you to send donations to NGOs and charities, which will be listed in the app.

There are a lot more deals going on with Boost, so do go through the app or website for more details. Having said that, what are your thoughts on e-Ang Pows? Do you like it or does it feel like it lacks a personal touch? Let us know in the comments and stay tuned to TechNave for more news like this.
