EPF i-Akaun App Down Temporarily As M’sians Rush Do Check For Dividend Payout

KWSP i-Akaun, the Employees Provident Fund (EPF) mobile application faced a temporary system crash as a wave of Malaysians hurried to check their newly announced dividend rates.

This incident occurred shortly after the EPF revealed its dividend rates for the year 2023, sparking a massive influx of users eager to see the impact on their savings.

The EPF, a cornerstone of retirement savings for many in Malaysia, declared a dividend rate of 5.5% for conventional savings accounts and 5.4% for Shariah-compliant savings accounts.

The anticipation among the members to verify these updates firsthand led to an unprecedented surge in-app traffic, momentarily overwhelming the system.

Despite the hiccup, the EPF’s swift response ensured that the app’s functionality was quickly restored, allowing members to access their accounts without further delay.

This quick recovery was a relief to many, as it confirmed the successful crediting of dividends to their accounts.
